Subject: HR Green, Inc. – Task Order No. 10 Professional Plan Review Services
Issue: Due to a temporary reduction in civil engineering staffing, we require an engineering firm to perform
supplemental plan review services until December 31, 2022.
Analysis: HR Green, Inc. currently performs building review services for the City pursuant to R-206-21.
Expanding this workflow to include site/civil plan review for residential and commercial projects will
expedite the permitting process. The HR Green, Inc. proposal calls for site/civil plan review services to be
billed at $175 per hour on a time and material basis and would be used on an as needed basis until December
31, 2022. These services would account for Task Order No. 10 of the Master Contract agreement authorized
via R-13-21.
Recommendation: We recommend approval of Task Order No. 10 with HR Green, Inc., 420 North Front
Street, Suite 100, McHenry, IL 60050 in a not-to exceed amount of $87,500. Source of funding would be
the Capital Projects Fund.

Page 20 of 31Exhibit A
2022 CIP Concrete Program MFT 22-00000-01-GM
Payments. The total amount of Progress Payments made prior to Final
Acceptance by Owner may not exceed 90 percent of the Contract Price.
B.Value of Work. The Value of the Work will be determined as follows:
(1)Lump Sum Items. For all Work to be paid on a lump sum basis,
Contractor must, not later than 10 days after execution of the Contract
and before submitting its first Pay Request, submit to Owner a schedule
showing the value of each component part of such Work in form and
with substantiating data acceptable to Owner (“Breakdown Schedule”).
The sum of the items listed in the Breakdown Schedule must equal the
amount or amounts set forth in the Schedule of Prices for Lump Sum
Work. An unbalanced Breakdown Schedule providing for overpayment
of Contractor on component parts of the Work to be performed first will
not be accepted. The Breakdown Schedule must be revised and
resubmitted until acceptable to Owner. No payment may be made for
any lump sum item until Contractor has submitted, and Owner has
approved, an acceptable Breakdown Schedule.
Owner may require that the approved Breakdown Schedule be revised
based on developments occurring during the provision and performance
of the Work. If Contractor fails to submit a revised Breakdown Schedule
that is acceptable to Owner, Owner will have the right either to suspend
Progress and Final Payments for Lump Sum Work or to make such
Payments based on Owner’s determination of the value of the Work
completed.
(2)Unit Price Items. For all Work to be paid on a unit price basis, the value
of such Work will be determined by Owner on the basis of the actual
number of acceptable units of Unit Price Items installed and complete in
place, multiplied by the applicable Unit Price set forth in the Schedule
of Prices. The actual number of acceptable units installed and complete
in place will be measured on the basis described in Attachment 1 to the
Contract or, in the absence of such description, on the basis determined
by Owner. The number of units of Unit Price Items stated in the
Schedule of Prices are Owner’s estimate only and may not be used in
establishing the Progress or Final Payments due Contractor. The
Contract Price will be adjusted to reflect the actual number of acceptable
units of Unit Price Items installed and complete in place upon Final
Acceptance.
C.Application of Payments. All Progress and Final Payments made by Owner to
Contractor will be applied to the payment or reimbursement of the costs with
respect to which they were paid and will not be applied to or used for any pre-
existing or unrelated debt between Contractor and Owner or between Contractor

DBE REQUIREMENTS – MWRD
MWRDGC AFFIRMATIVE ACTION ORDINANCE
AND DIVERSITY POLICY
Contract Goal to Be Achieved by the Contractor. This contract includes specific affirmative
action and diversity goals as per the MWRDGC Affirmative Action and Diversity Policies. The
goal has been included to mitigate the present effects of discrimination on the basis of race,
ethnicity or sex in opportunities to participate if the District’s prime contracts and associated
subcontracts and to achieve equitable utilization of minority-owned, women-owned and small
business enterprises in District contracts. The determination is based on the IGA for this project
between the MWRDGC and the City of Des Plaines. In the absence of unlawful discrimination,
and in an arena of fair and open competition, diversity companies can be expected to perform
not less than TBD % of the work with the following representation:
1.At least 20 % of the total projects shall be awarded to minority-owned businesses,
as defined in Section 2 of the Business Enterprise for Minorities, Women, and
Persons with Disabilities Act;
2.At least 10 % of the total projects shall be awarded to women-owned businesses,
as defined in Section 2 of the Business Enterprise for Minorities, Women, and
Persons with Disabilities Act;
3.At least 10 % of the total projects shall be awarded to small business
enterprises, as defined by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), pursuant
to the business size standards found in 13 CFR Part 121, relevant to the scopes) of
work the firm seeks to perform on District contracts, except that the size standard
for specialty trade construction firms shall be 150 percent of the SBA size
standard. A firm is not an eligible SBE in any calendar fiscal year in which its
Page 28 of 31Exhibit A
gross receipts, averaged over the firm's previous five fiscal years, exceed the size
standards of 13 CFR Part 121;
4.At least 3 % of the total projects shall be awarded to veteran owned business
enterprises as defined in Appendix V of the MWRDGC, meaning both a small
business enterprise and participating business, including a sole proprietorship,
partnership, corporation, limited liability company, joint venture or any other
business or professional entity which is at least fifty-one percent (51 %) directly
and unconditionally owned by one or more eligible veterans, or, in the case of a
publicly held corporation, fifty-one percent (51 %) of the stock of which is owned
by one or more eligible veterans, and whose management and daily business
operations are controlled by one or eligible veterans.
The contractor shall refer to the MWRDGC’s “Affirmative Action Ordinance Revised
Appendix D Revised May 21, 2020” and “Veteran’s Business Enterprise Contracting Policy,
Appendix V, Adopted November 15, 2018” for definitions, certification eligibility, counting
diversity participation toward goals and other pertinent requirements for compliance with this
Specification.
Application of Contract Goal. This goal shall apply to only the portion of the work related
to the construction of the Pervious Alley Pavement (Green Infrastructure)
DBE Locator References. Bidders shall consult the following as a reference source for DBE-
certified companies:
Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago’s Affirmative Action
initiative. The MWRD Affirmative Action Vendor List is located at
https://apps.mwrd.org/searchvendor/ .
Bidding Procedures. Compliance with this Special Provision is required prior to the award of
the contract and the failure of the low bidder to comply will render the bid not responsive. In
order to assure the timely award of the contract, the low bidder shall submit the following forms
with the bid documents:
1.MBE/WBE/SBE Utilization Plan completed on MWRDGC form (revision June 2015)
2.MBE/WBE/SBE/VBE Subcontractors’ Letter of Intent, on the MWRDGC Form, for
each MBE/WBE/SBE/VBE proposed for the performance of work to achieve the
contract goal.
The bidder may send the Utilization Plan electronically by scanning and sending to the
following email address: engineering@desplaines.org, with the Contract Name and
MBE/WBE/SBE Utilization Plan in the subject line. The Utilization Plan shall be sent as one
PDF file. Failure to submit the MBE/WBE/SBE Utilization Plan with the bid may cause the
Page 29 of 31Exhibit A
City to declare the bid non-responsive, and the City may elect to cause forfeiture of the penal
sum of the bidder’s proposal guaranty.
Good Faith Effort Procedures. The contract will not be awarded until the Utilization Plan
submitted by the apparent successful bidder is approved. All information submitted by the
bidder must be complete, accurate and adequately document that enough diversity participation
has been obtained or document that good faith efforts of the bidder, in the event enough
diversity participation has not been obtained, before the City will commit to the performance
of the contract by the bidder. The Utilization Plan will be approved by the City and MWRDGC
if the Utilization Plan documents sufficient commercially useful diversity work to meet the
contract goal or the bidder submits sufficient documentation of a good faith effort to meet the
contract goal pursuant to MWRDGC Affirmative Action Ordinance, Appendix D, Section 12.
The Utilization Plan will not be approved if the Utilization Plan does not document sufficient
diversity participation to meet the contract goal unless the apparent successful bidder
documented in the Utilization Plan that it made a good faith effort to meet the goal. This means
that the bidder must show that all necessary and reasonable steps were taken to achieve the
contract goal. Necessary and reasonable steps are those which, by their scope, intensity and
appropriateness to the objective, could reasonably be expected to obtain sufficient diversity
participation, even if they were not successful. The City will consider the quality, quantity, and
intensity of the kinds of efforts that the bidder has made. Mere pro forma efforts, in other words,
efforts done as a matter of form, are not good faith efforts; rather, the bidder is expected to have
taken genuine efforts that would be reasonably expected of a bidder actively and aggressively
trying to obtain diversity participation sufficient to meet the contract goal.
Calculating DBE Participation. The Utilization Plan values represent work anticipated to be
performed and paid for upon satisfactory completion. The City and MWRDGC is only able to
count toward the achievement of the overall goal and the contract goal the value of payments
made for the work actually performed by diversity companies. In addition, a diversity firm must
perform a commercially useful function on the contract to be counted. A commercially useful
function is generally performed when the diversity firm is responsible for the work and is
carrying out its responsibilities by actually performing, managing, and supervising the work
involved. The City and Contractor are governed by the provisions of 49 CFR Part 26.55(c) on
questions of commercially useful functions as it affects the work. Specific counting guidelines
are provided in Section 11 of the MWRDGC Affirmative Action Ordinance.
Contract Compliance. Compliance with this Special Provision is an essential part of the
contract. The Contractor shall adhere to Section 14 of the MWRDGC Affirmative Action
Ordinance.
Payment Records. The Contractor shall maintain a record of payments for work performed to
the diversity participants, following procedures established in Article 5 and Attachment 2,
Section 8 of this contract. The prime Contractor shall be required to submit the MWRDGC’s
Affirmative Action Monthly MBE/WBE/SBE/VBE Status Report providing the information
and in the format as specified by the MWRDGC with every payment request. Together with
each and every reimbursement request, the Contractor must submit: (1) a MBE/WBE/SBE
and VBE Status Report; (2) full or partial lien waivers from the participating
Page 30 of 31Exhibit A
MBE/WBE/SBE/VBE vendors, as applicable; and (3) proof of payment to the participating
MBE/WBE/SBE/VBE vendors (e.g., canceled checks), as applicable. Failure to submit a
Status Report and any supporting documentation may result in a payment delay or denial.

classified as a local street.
Comprehensive Plan: The Comprehensive Plan illustrates the site as industrial.
Zoning/Property History: Based on City records, the property was annexed into Des Plaines in 1965. The
subject address was developed with a building and parking area in as early as
1998. Since then, a building addition occurred on the south side of the building
around 2005. The subject tenant space was previously utilized by a moving
business, Two Men and a Truck, which left around January 2022.
Project Description: The petitioner, Bryan Fleischer of Premier Auto, is requesting a conditional use
to allow a motor vehicle sales use in the C-3 General Commercial district at 622
Northwest Highway. The subject property at 622 Northwest Highway consists
of one parcel totaling 153,529 square feet (3.52 acres) and currently contains a
31,180-square-foot, one-story multi-tenant commercial building with multiple
paved surface parking lots as illustrated on the attached Plat of Survey. It is
important to note that the Plat of Survey includes the property at 655 Seegers
Road, which is located directly east of the subject property. However, the
conditional use request is focused solely on the property at 622 Northwest
Highway. The subject property is currently accessed by one curb-cut off
Northwest Highway and three curb-cuts off Seegers Road. The existing
building is set back approximately 14 feet off the west property line (front)
along Northwest Highway, 153 feet from the west property line (rear), 62 feet
off the north property line (side), and 150 feet off the south property line (side).
Premier Auto is a car dealership focused on Asian and German brands that is
currently operating in Palatine but is planning to relocate to Des Plaines at the
subject property. Premier Auto plans to operate out of the westernmost tenant
space facing Northwest Highway, which consists of a 2,983-square-foot open
office/showroom area, a 260-square-foot interior office area, a 1,609-square-
foot open area to be utilized as a car photo room, and a 742-square-foot open
mechanical and storage area with an overhead door as illustrated in the attached
Floor Plans. The petitioner does not plan to make any alterations or additions
to tenant space at this time. The proposed hours of operation are 10 a.m. to 7:30
p.m. Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday, and closed on
Sunday. Up to five employees will be on site Monday through Friday and a
reduced staff will be present on Saturday. See the attached Project Narrative for
more information.
Premier Auto will have access to the north (facing Seegers Road) and west
(facing Northwest Highway) paved surface parking areas for vehicle display as
well as parking for customers and employees. Pursuant to Section 12-9-7 of the
Zoning Ordinance, motor vehicle sales uses require a minimum of one parking
space for every 500 square feet of showroom and office floor area, plus one
space for every 20 vehicle display spaces (required off street parking spaces
cannot be occupied by motor vehicles for sale or for lease). The 3,244-square-
foot combined showroom/office areas and 25 proposed vehicle display spaces
require a minimum of eight parking spaces, including one handicap accessible
parking space.
The attached Site Plan identifies the allocation of parking between vehicle
display parking and employee parking in addition to a note that drive aisle
Page 2 of 36
widths will be 12 feet. The petitioner has revised the attached Site Plan after the
PZB meeting to identify the one-way direction of travel throughout the portion
of the site to be utilized by Premier Auto, with clear striped arrows and one-
way/do -not-enter signs. The revised site plan also clearly indicates that the
property can accommodate eight open parking spaces for patrons, including one
handicap accessible parking space in compliance with all applicable City of Des
Plaines codes. The petitioner has also shown exterior lighting on the Site Plan.
While the proposal intends to utilize existing exterior building lighting and there
are no immediate plans to add exterior lighting, staff has added a condition that
a Photometric Plan will be required at time of building permit if new exterior
lighting is proposed for the subject property.
The vehicle display and showroom activities proposed on site fall within the
Motor Vehicle Sales use, defined in Section 12-13-3 of the Zoning Ordinance
as an establishment, the principal use or purpose of which is the sale of
motorized vehicles, including, but not limited to, the sale of automobiles,
personal trucks, recreation vehicles, snowmobiles, boats, and motorcycles. The
subject property is located within the C-3 district and a Motor Vehicle Sales use
requires a conditional use in this district. Since no conditional use currently
exists for this address, a conditional use is required for Premier Auto to operate
on this property.
PZB Recommendation and Conditions: The PZB met on May 24, 2022 to consider a conditional use for a
Motor Vehicle Sales use in the C-3 General Commercial District. The Board made findings of fact, the
rationale statements for which are captured in the excerpt to the approved minutes of the May 24, 2022
meeting. The PZB recommended (7-0) that the City Council approve the conditional use request with the
seven conditions in the staff report. The condition to revise the Site Plan has already been met by the petitioner
and the revised Site Plan has been attached to this packet. Thus, the remaining six conditions are provided on
the next page for your consideration. The PZB review is also summarized in the attached Chairman Szabo
memo.
Pursuant to Sections 12-3-4.D.4 of the Zoning Ordinance, the City Council may vote to approve, approve
with modifications, or deny the request. The Council has final authority over the conditional use permit, which
would be granted by Ordinance Z-14-22. If PZB recommends approval and City Council ultimately approves
the request, staff recommends the following conditions.
Conditions of Approval:
1. A Photometric Plan must be submitted to the City at the time of building permit application if new
exterior lighting is proposed for the Subject Property.
2. All businesses located on the Subject Property must have current and accurate business registrations
and be in full compliance with all applicable City of Des Plaines codes.
3. Container storage is prohibited on the Subject Property without appropriate additional approvals from
the City and a valid business registration for a trade contractor establishment. Any existing contractor
storage/trade contractor activities occurring on the Subject Property must cease immediately until
appropriate approvals from the City are obtained.
4. Commercial truck parking is prohibited on the Subject Property.
Page 3 of 36
5. The Subject Property must be brought into and remain in conformance with all property maintenance
code requirements.
6. Except for vehicles displayed for sale, all vehicles parked outdoors on the Subject Property must have
valid license plates and registration at all times.

Mayor Goczkowski and Des Plaines City Council
CITY OF DES PLAINES
Subject: Planning and Zoning Board, 622 Northwest Highway, 22-017-CU, 7th Ward
RE: Consideration of a Conditional Use for Motor Vehicle Sales
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Des Plaines City Council:
The Planning and Zoning Board (PZB) held a public hearing on May 24, 2022 to consider a conditional use under
Section 12-7-3.K to allow a motor vehicle sales use in the C-3 General Commercial district at 622 Northwest
Highway.
1.The petitioner, Bryan Fleischer of Premier Auto, introduced the request to locate an internet auto sales
business on the subject property. He mentioned that they specialize in imported automobiles ranging from
$13,000 to $30,000 and clarified that their business would only utilize a portion of the existing multi-
tenant building on site. He added that they would have a service area to provide services to their customers.
2.PZB members asked if the petitioner was moving his business from Palatine; how long they have been at
their current location; if the subject property is a similar size to their existing property; if they service
vehicles they sell; how many employees will be on site at a given time; if the property owner is selling the
property to the petitioner; when they plan to open their business; when the subject property was a Chrysler
dealership; if internet sales bring in same amount of business as regular car dealerships; and if they are
aware of staff’s recommended condition to prohibit commercial truck parking on the subject property.
The petitioner responded that they are moving from Palatine; that they have been in Palatine for five and
a half years and need to move because the property they are currently located on is being sold; that they
do service vehicles for customers who have purchased vehicles from them but are not open to the general
public; that they will have up to five employees on site at given time; that they are just leasing a portion
of the multi-tenant building from the property owner; that they plan to open in July as there is minor work
necessary to open the existing space; that he is not aware of when the site was utilized as a Chrysler
dealership; that they tax customers based on their tax rate to offer competitive pricing; and that they are
not aware of the condition but do not have any commercial trucks related to their business.
3. CED staff summarized the staff report with slides and recommended seven conditions if the PZB decided
to approve the conditional use. One condition requires the petitioner to revise the Site Plan to identify the
location of all required parking spaces with dimensions and to specify the travel direction for all of the
proposed 12-foot-wide drive aisles on the property. The other conditions pertain to operations and use of
the subject property as a whole to ensure full compliance of all applicable City codes.
4.One member of the public spoke on this request with concerns regarding parking and heavy truck traffic
associated with the proposed use mentioning that this area currently has parking issues with vehicles
blocking houses and heavy trucks tearing up roadways. She asked where patrons of their business will
park and if the use will generate any loud noises or bright lights. The petitioner responded that all patrons
and employees will park on site and if any vehicles are parked on the street or anywhere else than the
Attachment 6 Page 14 of 36
intended on-site parking area for patrons, that they will move the vehicles accordingly. He added that will
not have loud noises or bright lights. However, they will have lights on timers for the exterior areas.
5. The PZB recommended (7-0) that the City Council approve the conditional use for motor vehicle sales
with the seven conditions in the staff report.
Respectfully submitted,
James Szabo,

Owner: Rob Zimmerman, 1216 Rand Road, Des Plaines, IL 60016
Chairman Szabo swore in the petitioner Bryan Fleischer and Daniel Schlosberg.
Mr. Fleischer stated Premier Auto is applying for a conditional use permit for the property located at 622
E Northwest Hwy, Des Plaines, IL. Premier Auto currently operate as a car dealership in Palatine, IL and
the landlord has since sold the building. Premier Auto is currently looking to move its business to Des
Plaines, IL and serve the community. They do not plan any alterations or additions. The space was
originally constructed as a car dealership and will suit their needs as is. Premier Auto will take possession
of the west and north parking lots for inventory and use the west showroom and forward offices. They
will also use the north overhead door and half of the service drive to maintain our vehicles inside.
Member Fowler asked if they are moving out of Palatine and how long they have been there?
Mr. Fleischer confirmed they are moving from Palatine and have been for the past 5 and a half years.
Member Fowler asked if this location is the same size as the Palatine location.
Mr. Fleischer stated the Des Plaines location actually is a bit larger and suits their needs better.
Member Weaver asked if they will perform general maintenance on vehicles on a regular basis or is the
maintenance only for customers that have purchased their vehicle directly from you.
Mr. Fleischer stated that is correct, we only perform routine maintenance on their customer’s vehicles.
Member Weaver asked if they have hoists, oil collection systems, and similar equipment for automotive
service repair uses and if they will meet environmental standards.
Mr. Fleischer stated they have all appropriate equipment and have a company to come to remove used
oil from the site to avoid contamination of the subject property and meet environmental standards.
Member Szabo asked how many employees will there be.
Mr. Fleischer stated currently they have five, but are hoping to add another mechanic to the team.
Member Hofherr asked if the petitioner agrees with the conditions that are being presented.

Zoning/Property History: Based on City records, the property was annexed into Des Plaines in 1965. The
subject address was developed with a building and parking area in as early as 1998. Since then, a building
addition occurred on the south side of the building around 2005. The subject tenant space was previously
utilized by a moving business, Two Men and a Truck, which left around January 2022.
Project Description: The petitioner, Bryan Fleischer of Premier Auto, is requesting a conditional use to
allow a motor vehicle sales use in the C-3 General Commercial district at 622 Northwest Highway. The
subject property at 622 Northwest Highway consists of one parcel totaling 153,529 square feet (3.52
acres) and currently contains a 31,180-square-foot, one-story multi-tenant commercial building with
multiple paved surface parking lots as illustrated on the attached Plat of Survey. It is important to note
that the Plat of Survey includes the property at 655 Seegers Road, which is located directly east of the
subject property. However, the conditional use request is focused solely on the property at 622 Northwest
Highway. The subject property is currently accessed by one curb-cut off Northwest Highway and three
curb-cuts off Seegers Road. The existing building is set back approximately 14 feet off the west property
line (front) along Northwest Highway, 153 feet from the west property line (rear), 62 feet off the north
property line (corner-side), and 150 feet off the south property line (interior side).
Premier Auto is a car dealership focused on Asian and German brands that is currently operating in
Palatine but is planning to relocate to Des Plaines at the subject property. Premier Auto plans to operate
out of the westernmost tenant space facing Northwest Highway, which consists of a 2,983-square-foot
open office/showroom area, a 260-square-foot interior office area, a 1,609-square-foot open area to be
utilized as a car photo room, and a 742-square-foot open mechanical and storage area with an overhead
door as illustrated in the attached Floor Plans. The petitioner does not plan to make any alterations or
additions to tenant space at this time. The proposed hours of operation are 10 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Monday
through Friday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday, and closed on Sunday. Up to five employees will be on site
Monday through Friday and a reduced staff will be present on Saturday. See the attached Project
Narrative for more information.
Premier Auto will have access to the north (facing Seegers Road) and west (facing Northwest Highway)
paved surface parking areas for vehicle display as well as parking for customers and employees. Pursuant
to Section 12-9-7 of the Zoning Ordinance, motor vehicle sales uses require a minimum of one parking
space for every 500 square feet of showroom and office floor area, plus one space for every 20 vehicle
display spaces (required off street parking spaces cannot be occupied by motor vehicles for sale or for
lease). The 3,244-square- foot combined showroom/office areas and 25 proposed vehicle display spaces
require a minimum of eight parking spaces, including one handicap accessible parking space.

The attached Site Plan identifies the allocation of parking between vehicle display parking and employee
parking in addition to a note that drive aisle widths will be 12 feet. Per 12-9-6 of the Zoning Ordinance, a
12-foot-wide drive aisle is only acceptable for one-way circulation. As customer parking is required for
this use, staff has added a condition that the Site Plan is revised and resubmitted to staff prior to the City
Council meeting to identify the one-way direction of travel throughout the portion of the site to be utilized
by Premier Auto, with clear striped arrows and/prone-way/do-not-enter signs. The revised site plan
should also clearly indicate that the property can accommodate eight open parking spaces for patrons,
including one handicap accessible parking space in compliance with all applicable City of Des Plaines
codes. The petitioner has also shown exterior lighting on the Site Plan. While the proposal intends to
utilize existing exterior building lighting and there are no immediate plans to add exterior lighting, staff
has added a condition that a Photometric Plan will be required at time of building permit if new exterior
lighting is proposed for the subject property.
The vehicle display and showroom activities proposed on site fall within the Motor Vehicle Sales use,
defined in Section 12-13-3 of the Zoning Ordinance as an establishment, the principal use or purpose of
which is the sale of motorized vehicles, including, but not limited to, the sale of automobiles, personal
trucks, recreation vehicles, snowmobiles, boats, and motorcycles. The subject property is located within
the C-3 district and a Motor Vehicle Sales use requires a conditional use in this district. Since no conditional
use currently exists for this address, a conditional use is required for Premier Auto to operate on this
property.
Conditional Use Findings: Conditional Use requests are subject to the standards set forth in Section 12-3-
4(E) of the Zoning Ordinance. The PZB may use the staff comments below or the attached petitioner
responses as its findings, or the Board may adopt its own:
1. The proposed Conditional Use is in fact a Conditional Use established within the specific Zoning
district involved:
Comment: The proposed principal use is classified as a motor vehicle sales use. A motor vehicle sales use
is a conditional use as specified in Section 12-7-3 of the Zoning Ordinance.
2. The proposed Conditional Use is in accordance with the objectives of the City’s Comprehensive
Plan:
Comment: The subject property is a multi-tenant building with available commercial space. The proposal
would repurpose available space to provide a new business and services for residents.
3. The proposed Conditional Use is designed, constructed, operated and maintained to be
harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing or intended character of the
general vicinity:
Comment: The motor vehicle sales use would utilize the existing building and site, which adjoins smaller
commercial developments. However, it is not necessarily harmonious with the surrounding commercial
development to the north, or the residential development situated at its east, south, and west sides.
4. The proposed Conditional Use is not hazardous or disturbing to existing neighboring uses:
Comment: The use would not be hazardous or disturbing to the existing neighboring uses. Instead, the
proposal will improve an underutilized portion of the existing commercial building.

Map Amendment / Tentative Plat / Variation
5. The proposed Conditional Use is to be served adequately by essential public facilities and
services, such as highways, streets, police and fire protection, drainage structures, refuse
disposal, water and sewer, and schools; or, agencies responsible for establishing the Conditional
Use shall provide adequately any such services:
Comment: The subject property is a corner lot with direct access to essential public facilities and services.
Staff has no concerns that the motor vehicle sales use will be adequately served with essential public
facilities and services.
6. The proposed Conditional Use does not create excessive additional requirements at public
expense for public facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic well-being
of the entire community:
Comment: The motor vehicle sales use would neither create a burden on public facilities, nor would it be
a detriment to the economic well-being of the community. The addition of a new use could help the
existing business grow and promotes business retention of surrounding commercial areas.
7. The proposed Conditional Use does not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment
and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons, property, or the general
welfare by reason of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke fumes, glare or odors:
Comment: Aside from the parking of vehicles for sale, activities for the motor vehicle sales use will take
place inside, reducing any noise, smoke fumes, light, glare, odors, or other concerns. The existing
development and site improvements currently do not create adverse effects on surrounding properties.
8. The proposed Conditional Use provides vehicular access to the property designed so that it does
not create an interference with traffic on surrounding public thoroughfares:
Comment: The proposed use will not create an interference with traffic on surrounding public
thoroughfares as there are multiple access points from existing streets. The proposed 12-foot-wide drive
aisles will restrict vehicular access to one-way circulation throughout this portion of the site. The proposal
will not alter the existing access point or add any curb cuts to the existing property.
9. The proposed Conditional Use does not result in the destruction, loss, or damage of natural,
scenic, or historic features of major importance:
Comment: The subject property is already developed so the motor vehicle sales use would not result in
the loss or damage of natural, scenic, or historic features. Instead, the petitioner is repurposing available
space in an existing multi-tenant commercial building to provide new services to the city.
10. The proposed Conditional Use complies with all additional regulations in the Zoning Ordinance
specific to the Conditional Use requested:
Comment: The motor vehicle sales use will comply with all applicable requirements as stated in the Zoning
Ordinance.
PZB Procedure and Recommended Conditions: Under Section 12-3-4(D)(3) (Procedure for Review and
Decision of Conditional Uses), the PZB has the authority to recommend that the City Council approve,
approve subject to conditions, or deny the above-mentioned conditional use request for 622 Northwest
Highway. The City Council has final authority on the proposal.

6. The property shall be brought into and remain in conformance with all property maintenance

guidelines.
Member fowler asked if the petitioner was aware of the one condition prohibiting commercial trucks.
Mr. Fleischer stated that they do not have any commercial trucks.
Chairman Szabo asked if anyone from the audience had any questions or comments.

us. Lastly, we will not have a loud speaker but we will have lights for security on the property but they are
not spotlights.

CONSENT AGENDA #5.
East: Water Reclamation Plant (Public Utility)
West: Assisted Living Facility (Commercial)
Street Classification: Elmhurst Road is classified as a minor arterial.
Comprehensive Plan: The Comprehensive Plan illustrates the site as commercial.
Zoning/Property History: Based on City records, the property was annexed into Des Plaines in 1968. The
existing structure has been used as a banquet hall in the past but is currently
vacant and has not received a conditional use for a commercially zoned
assembly use. Therefore, the previous occupant—Florayan Banquets—
operated as a legal nonconforming use. Florayan ceased operations in June
2020, so the vacancy period exceeded 12 months. Per Section 12-5-5 of the
Zoning Ordinance, a conditional use is required to resume the commercially
zoned assembly.
Project Description: The petitioner, Sargon Mando, is requesting a conditional use for a
Commercially Zoned Assembly in the C-3 General Commercial District at 1730
Elmhurst Road. The subject property is an interior lot on the west side of
Elmhurst Road in between Oakton Street and the I-90/Elmhurst Road
interchange. It currently shares a curb cut off Elmhurst Road with the Assisted
Living Facility to the south and west. The existing parking areas directly abut
the parking areas for the Assisted Living Facility. The property consists of one
parcel totaling 32,638 square feet (0.75 acres) and currently consists of an
8,712-square-foot, one-story commercial building with a basement, paved
parking area, and a 308-square-foot shed as shown on the attached Plat of
Survey. The existing one-story commercial building is set back approximately
35 feet off the east property line (front) along Elmhurst Road, 31 feet from the
west property line (rear), 22 feet off the north property line (side), and 108 feet
off the south property line (side).
The petitioner owns Lamassu Palace Company, which is a banquet facility that
hosts a variety of different indoor events such as weddings, bridal showers,
baby showers, reunions, family events, corporate events, and galas. The
petitioner projects that this site will host events ranging between 50 to 500
guests. The proposed hours of operation are 6 a.m. to 1 a.m. Monday through
Thursday, 6 a.m. to 2 a.m. Friday and Saturday, and 10:30 a.m. to 1 a.m. on
Sundays. See the attached Project Narrative for more information. The
petitioner is not proposing any changes to the existing building as shown in the
attached Floor Plans since the building has already been remodeled by the
previous owner and includes:
• A main level consisting of a foyer, dumbwaiter system, and two separate
banquet hall rooms, each with a bar area; and
• A basement level consisting of a full kitchen with freezers, an office
space, restrooms, storage areas, and mechanical areas.
The petitioner does propose additional landscaping on the site around the
foundation of the building as shown on the attached Landscape Plan to soften
the transition between the building and the parking area while also providing
some screening from surrounding properties. A banquet hall falls underneath a
Page 2 of 33
commercially zoned assembly use, as defined in Section 12-13-3 of the Zoning
Ordinance, which requires a conditional use permit in the C-3 district pursuant
to Section 12-7-3(K). Banquet halls are required to have one parking space for
every 200 square feet of gross floor area. Based on the Floor Plans, 37 parking
spaces, including two handicap accessible spaces, are required. The attached
Site Plan indicates that there are 77 parking spaces, including two handicap
spaces, which meets this requirement.
PZB Recommendation and Conditions: The PZB met on April 26, 2022 to consider a conditional use for
a Commercially Zoned Assembly use in the C-3 General Commercial District. The Board made findings of
fact, the rationale statements for which are captured in the excerpt to the draft minutes of the April 26, 2022
meeting. The PZB recommended (4-0) that the City Council approve the conditional use request as
presented without any conditions. The PZB review is also summarized in the attached Acting Chairman
Saletnik memo.
Pursuant to Sections 12-3-4.D.4 of the Zoning Ordinance, the City Council may vote to approve, approve
with modifications, or deny the request. The Council has final authority over the conditional use permit, which
would be granted by Ordinance Z-12-22.

RESPONSES TO STANDARDS FOR CONDITIONAL USES
Revised 4/12/2022
1.Yes, my proposed conditional use is to operate as a banquet hall.
Property is located in a C-3 zoning district and my proposed use is
considered a commercial use for assembly.
2.My proposed conditional use is in accordance with the City’s
objectives. I plan to reinvest and develop in the community to
promote new opportunities of employment. My plan is flexible
and able to adopt to any changes proposed by the city to build a
better more sustainable community.
3.Proposed conditional use will operate indoors as to not cause any
noise nuisance to our neighbors. Property will be kept clean and
sanitary. Design will be in accordance to blend with the
appearance of the vicinity.
4.Banquet hall will not cause any disturbance to any existing
neighboring uses. We will conduct all assemblies, events,
gatherings indoor only. No events will be held outdoors.
5.Yes, existing banquet is already being serviced adequately. It is
being serviced by the following essential public facilities: highway
& street sanitation, police, fire protections, refuse disposal, water
and sewer.
6.No, the existing banquet hall does not create excessive additional
requirements at the public’s expense, as it is installed on the
existing building on the subject property and utilizes the same
utilities and services already present on site.
7.No, banquet operation will not conduct any activities that will
produce any outdoor noise, smoke, fumes or odor. Traffic will be
Attachment 1 Page 4 of 33
handled by having someone onsite organizing the parking of any
guest.
8. We currently have two access points that will not create
interference. One is on Elmhurst Rd going southbound or going
northbound and making a U-turn on Oakton. The second one is on
Oakton Street going eastbound, it is a shared access point with
the Asbury Court Assisted Living facility.
9. Property is already developed. It is an existing building. Therefore
will not cause any damage or loss.
10. I have to apply for this conditional use permit in order to operate
as a banquet hall. I will comply with all additional regulations and
requirements.

Mayor Goczkowski and Des Plaines City Council, CITY OF DES PLAINES
Subject: Planning and Zoning Board, 1730 Elmhurst Road, Case #22-013-CU (8th Ward)
RE: Consideration of a Conditional Use for a Commercially-Zoned Assembly Use in the C-3 district
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Des Plaines City Council:
The Planning and Zoning Board met on April 26, 2022 to consider the Conditional Use request to allow a
commercially-zoned assembly use in the C-3 General Commercial district at 1730 Elmhurst Road.
1.The petitioner, Sargon Mando, presented an overview of the request to locate a banquet hall at 1730
Elmhurst Road. Mr. Mando stated that they have a family-owned banquet business that hosts a variety of
different events and would like to repurpose the existing building, former Florayan Banquets, for a new
banquet hall. He explained that they purchased the property two years ago and since then have painted the
exterior to give the existing building a fresh new look. He added that they plan to add landscaping around
the building’s foundation to further improve the overall aesthetics of the site.
2.The Planning and Zoning Board (PZB) Members asked if the petitioner could expand on the business
operations of the proposed use; the parking requirement for a banquet hall and if it takes into account
employee counts; what the typical patron counts for events; if the petitioner has a way of blocking off
shared parking spaces so they are available for his use; how the proposed valet process works on site; if
he collective parking agreement regulations were updated and if a collective parking agreement would be
required for this use; and if they typically have events at 6 am as stated in their proposed hours of operation.
The petitioner elaborated on the proposed business operations: (i) they are using a valet service to allow
for better circulation of the parking areas; (ii) they will have a chef on site to provide catering but
sometimes may allow outside food in the venue; (iii) they plan to hire 30-40 employees, but only 15-20
employees will be on site at a given time; (iv) they do not have parking concerns since they share parking
with the Asbury Senior Center located directly west and south of the subject property; and (v) they
anticipate to make roughly $300,000 in the first year, $600,000 in the second year, and $800,000 in the
third year. Mr. Mando responded to the remaining questions stating that they do have plenty of available
parking on site as well as additional spaces on the Asbury Senior Center parking lot to handle large events;
that events can typically range from 150 to 180 persons; that they could block off parking spaces if needed
but the Asbury Senior Center’s visiting hours close at 6 pm so there is ample parking at that time on the
subject property and neighboring site; that they would have patrons drop their vehicles off at the north
side of the building near the Oakton Street entrance so valets could park the vehicles in designated slots;
that he would enter into a collective parking agreement if needed but is not sure if the Asbury Senior
Center owner would be interested; and that they usually do not have any events at 6 am but occasionally
funerals may take place during this time so they plan to be open for these types of events as necessary.
3.The Community and Economic Development Department summarized the staff report and noted that there
were no recommended conditions. Staff provided clarification on the collective parking agreement
regulations and noted that both parties would need to enter into the agreement and the City would require
a copy.

4. No members of the public spoke on this request.
5. The Planning and Zoning Board recommended (4-0) that the City Council approve of the request as
presented without any conditions.
Respectfully submitted,
Paul Saletnik,

The petitioner is requesting a conditional use to allow a commercially-zoned assembly use in the C-3
General Commercial district and any other variations, waivers, and zoning relief as may be necessary.

Petitioner: Sargon Mando, 1840 N. Braymore Drive, Inverness, IL 60010
Owner: Sargon Mando, 1840 N. Braymore Drive, Inverness, IL 60010
Member Saletnik swore in Sargon Mando, 1840 N. Braymore Drive, Inverness, IL 60010.
Mr. Mando stated this facility was previously a banquet hall the he purchased roughly two years ago.
Lamassu Palace will be family ran and have approximately 30-40 employees. The outside of the building
was recently painted and we are also looking to put in landscaping to soften the parking area. The inside
of the banquet hall is in excellent condition and was updated before purchasing the property. Mr. Mando
stated that he hopes to bring in neighboring cities and customers for small and large events.
Member Saletnik asked if there are concerns about the number of parking spaces.
Mr. Mando said there are 77 spaces in total, I think only 37 spaces are required.
Member Saletnik asked how large events can be or how many people per event.
Mr. Mando stated between 50 and 400 people, but we plan to have free valet parking so we can be in
control of parking.
Member Saletnik so 50 to 400 guest plus 30-40 employees. There is not enough parking for that volume.
Member Saletnik then asked staff if the collective parking ordinance passed regarding written collective
parking agreements.
Jonathan Stytz, Senior Planner stated it did pass and we do allow properties to enter into a collective
parking agreement.
Mr. Mando also said he hopes to have up to 400 guests but he recently has booked about six events and
the range of guest is roughly 180, and we would have about 15 staff members.
Member Hofherr stated he drove past the banquet hall a few times and he noticed a lot of cars parked
there during the day. Will you have enough parking?
Mr. Mando stated the cars during the day are from the senior center next door. We have a verbal
agreement that any over flow parking during the day, they may use the Lamassu Palace lot until visiting
hours are up around 6:00pm. Then if we need parking after 6:00pm due to overflow from an event or
events, we can use the senior centers lot to park vehicles. This apparently was the same agreement the
Attachment 6 Page 11 of 33
previous banquet hall owner had with the senior center. It is the neighborly thing to do to help both
facilities.
Member Hofherr asked is the business hours of Monday through Thursday 6am to 1am, Friday and
Saturday 6am to 2am, and Sunday 10:30am to 1am is correct.
Mr. Mando stated that is correct, sometimes we host funerals or smaller events that take place early
morning, and we typically arrive usually two hours before an event, giving us time to prepare.
Member Fowler asked if we should make a collective parking agreement a condition of this Conditional
Use request.
Mr. Mando expressed his concerns, and stated he has no problem signing the agreement but what if the
senior center does not want to sign.
Member Saletnik noted that he thinks the agreement would be a good way to save himself in the future
if anything changes, I just want to avoid a parking issue if possible.
Jonathan Stytz, Planner for CED gave his staff report.

General Commercial District at 1730 Elmhurst Road.

Attachment 6 Page 12 of 33
Street Classification: Elmhurst Road is classified as a minor arterial.
Comprehensive Plan: The Comprehensive Plan illustrates the site as commercial.
Zoning/Property History: Based on City records, the property was annexed into Des Plaines in 1968. The
existing structure has been used as a banquet hall in the past but is currently vacant and has not
received a conditional use for a commercially zoned assembly use. Therefore, the previous occupant—
Florayan Banquets— operated as a legal nonconforming use. Florayan ceased operations in June 2020,
so the vacancy period exceeded 12 months. Per Section 12-5-5 of the Zoning Ordinance, a conditional
use is required to resume the commercially zoned assembly.
Project Description: The petitioner, Sargon Mando, is requesting a conditional use for a Commercially
Zoned Assembly in the C-3 General Commercial District at 1730 Elmhurst Road. The subject property is
an interior lot on the west side of Elmhurst Road in between Oakton Street and the I-90/Elmhurst Road
interchange. It currently shares a curb cut off Elmhurst Road with the Assisted Living Facility to the south
and west. The existing parking areas directly abut the parking areas for the Assisted Living Facility. The
property consists of one parcel totaling 32,638 square feet (0.75 acres) and currently consists of an
8,712-square-foot, one-story commercial building with a basement, paved parking area, and a 308-
square-foot shed as shown on the attached Plat of Survey. The existing one-story commercial building is
set back approximately 35 feet off the east property line (front) along Elmhurst Road, 31 feet from the
west property line (rear), 22 feet off the north property line (side), and 108 feet off the south property
line (side).
The petitioner owns Lamassu Palace Company, which is a banquet facility that hosts a variety of
different indoor events such as weddings, bridal showers, baby showers, reunions, family events,
corporate events, and galas. The petitioner projects that this site will host events ranging between 50 -
500 guests. The proposed hours of operation are 6 a.m. to 1 a.m. Monday through Thursday, 6 a.m. to 2
a.m. Friday and Saturday, and 10:30 a.m. to 1 a.m. on Sundays. See the attached Project Narrative for
more information. The petitioner is not proposing any changes to the existing building as shown in the
attached Floor Plans since the building has already been remodeled by the previous owner and includes:
• A main level consisting of a foyer, dumbwaiter system, and two separate banquet hall rooms,
each with a bar area; and
• A basement level consisting of a full kitchen with freezers, an office space, restrooms, storage
areas, and mechanical areas.
The petitioner does propose additional landscaping on the site around the foundation of the building as
shown on the attached Landscape Plan to soften the transition between the building and the parking
area while also providing some screening from surrounding properties. A banquet hall falls underneath a
commercially zoned assembly use, as defined in Section 12-13-3 of the Zoning Ordinance, which
requires a conditional use permit in the C-3 district pursuant to Section 12-7-3(K). Banquet halls are
required to have one parking space for every 200 square feet of gross floor area. Based on the Floor
Plans, 37 parking spaces, including two handicap accessible spaces, are required. The attached Site Plan
indicates that there are 77 arking spaces, including two handicap spaces, which meets this requirement.
Conditional Use Findings: Conditional Use requests are subject to the standards set forth in Section 12-3-
Attachment 6 Page 13 of 33
4(E) of the Zoning Ordinance. The PZB may use staff comments below or attached petitioner responses as
its findings, or the Board may adopt its own:
1.The proposed Co established within the specific Zoning district involved:
Comment: The proposed principal use is classified as a commercially zoned assembly use. A
commercially zoned assembly use is a conditional use as specified in Section 12-7-3 of the Zoning
Ordinance.
2.The p the objectives of the City’s Comprehensive Plan:
Comment: The subject property is a vacant building. The proposed banquet hall repurposes the subject
property to provide additional services for residents to serve and benefit the city as a whole.
3.The proposed Conditional Use is designed, constructed, operated and maintained to be
harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing or intended character of the
general vicinity:
Comment: The proposed commercially zoned assembly use for the banquet hall would utilize the
existing building and site, which is harmonious with the surrounding commercial development to the
west, north, and south of the property. As this building was previously utilized as a banquet hall, the
new use would not change the character or impact of the site on the surrounding region.
4.The proposed Conditional Use is not hazardous or disturbing to existing neighboring uses:
Comment: The proposed commercially zoned assembly use would not be hazardous or disturbing to the
existing neighboring uses. Instead, the proposal will improve an underperforming property with a new
use that is self-contained inside a building and will not detract or disturb surrounding uses in the area.
The proposed banquet hall is not anticipated to be hazardous or disturbing to existing neighborhood
uses similar to the previous banquet use on this site.
5.The proposed Conditional Use is to be served adequately by essential public facilities and
services, such as highways, streets, police and fire protection, drainage structures, refuse
disposal, water and sewer, and schools; or, agencies responsible for establishing the Conditional
Use shall provide adequately any such services:
Comment: The subject property is an interior lot with direct access to essential public facilities and
services. Staff has no concerns that the proposed use will be adequately served with essential public
facilities and services.
6.The proposed Conditional Use does not create excessive additional requirements at public
expense for public facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic well-being
of the entire community:
Comment: The proposed use would neither create a burden on public facilities, nor would it be a
detriment to the economic well-being of the community. The proposed use could help improve the
economic well-being of the community by beautifying visible areas.
7.The proposed Conditional Use does not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment
and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons, property, or the general
welfare by reason of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke fumes, glare or odors:
Attachment 6 Page 14 of 33
Comment: All proposed activities for the proposed banquet hall would take place inside, reducing any
noise, smoke fumes, light, glare, odors, or other concerns. The existing development and site
improvements currently do not project adverse effects on the surrounding properties.
8. The proposed Conditional Use provides vehicular access to the property designed so it does not
create an interference with traffic on surrounding public thoroughfares:
Comment: The proposed use will not create an interference with traffic on surrounding public
thoroughfares as access is from an existing street. The proposal will not alter the existing access point or
add any curb cuts to the existing property.
9. The proposed Conditional Use does not result in damage of natural, scenic, or historic features
of major importance:
Comment: The subject property is already developed so the new use would not result in the loss or
damage of natural, scenic, or historic features. Instead, the petitioner is repurposing the existing
development to house a new banquet hall facility in an effort to provide services to the city.
10. The proposed Conditional Use complies with the Zoning Ordinance specific to the Conditional
Use requested:
Comment: The proposed commercially zoned assembly use will comply with all applicable requirements
as stated in the Zoning Ordinance.
PZB Procedure and Recommended Conditions: Under Section 12-3-4(D)(3) (Procedure for Review and
Decision of Conditional Uses), the PZB has the authority to recommend that the City Council approve,
approve subject to conditions, or deny the above-mentioned conditional use request for 1730 Elmhurst
Road. The City Council has final authority on the proposal.
Consideration of the request should be based on a review of the information presented by the applicant
and the findings made above, as specified in Section 12-3-4(E) (Standards for Conditional Uses) of the
Zoning Ordinance. Staff does not recommend any conditions with this request.
It was discussed between board members and at this time they are not adding the condition of a collective
parking agreement between the two properties, but they do feel Mr. Mando should speak to the senior
center owner and get a feel for how he may react to a written parking agreement.
A motion was made by Board Member Hofherr, seconded by Board Member Fowler to recommend a
conditional use to allow a commercially-zoned assembly use in the C-3 General Commercial district and
any other variations, waivers, and zoning relief as may be necessary.
AYES: Saletnik, Hofherr, Catalano, Fowler
NAYES: None
ABSTAIN: None

MINUTES OF THE PUBLIC HEARING HELD IN THE ELEANOR ROHRBACH
MEMORIAL COUNCIL CHAMBERS DES PLAINES CIVIC CENTER, MONDAY,
JUNE 20, 2022
PUBLIC HEARING/
CDBG PY 2022
ANNUAL ACTION
PLAN:
Mayor Pro Tem Brookman called the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
Program Year (PY) 2022 Annual Action Plan Public Hearing to order at 7:02 p.m.
Assistant Director of Community and Economic Development Johnson reviewed a
memorandum dated June 9, 2022.
The City’s Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) allocation for the 2022 Program
Year (October 1, 2022 - September 30, 2023) is anticipated to be $313,366. This amount is
determined by a formula calculated by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD). Every year, the City is required to hold a Public Hearing to solicit public
comments and feedback for its CDBG Annual Action Plan.
The Annual Action Plan (AAP) serves as the City’s budget and formal application for the use
of CDBG funds. Like previous years, the City plans to use 100% of the grant allocation to
assist low- and moderate-income households and low- and moderate-income areas. The
available funding includes the amount allocated for the coming program year ($313,366) and
remaining funding rolled over from previous program years (approximately $290,000). The
following is the breakdown of the proposed fund distribution by program type:
Public Facility and Infrastructure Improvements: $345,000
CONSENT AGENDA #6.
Page 2 of 8 6/20/2022
Housing Rehabilitation: $195,512
Planning and Administration: $62,500
These programs are planned to meet all HUD eligibility requirements and would be consistent
with the objectives set forth in the City’s 5-year PY 2020-2024 CDBG Consolidated Plan. The
draft AAP includes a larger allocation for Public Facility and Infrastructure Improvement
projects than in previous years, $345,000, which would be used for both Des Plaines Park
District and City of Des Plaines projects. During PY 2022, $195,000 would be utilized by the
City for street or sidewalk projects in low- to moderate- income areas of the City, as a part of
Public Works and Engineering ongoing annual projects. The Des Plaines Park District would
utilize $150,000 for further improvement projects at Seminole Park, including lighting.
The draft AAP does not include Public Services, which were funded at $47,700 in the previous
Program Year. This change is intended to channel more funding to Public Facilities and
Infrastructure projects while alleviating HUD CDBG requirements for the City and local
service agencies. HUD limits Public Service funding to 15% of the grant total each year and
the grant requirements involve complex invoicing procedures as well as monitoring visits that
the City must perform. Shifting the focus of funding to Public Facilities and Infrastructure
follows the primary intent of CDBG to fund physical improvements, such as street resurfacing
and housing rehabilitations that benefit low- and moderate-income residents. Staff
recommends the City consider funding local service agencies through a more direct means,
separate from HUD CDBG funding, to streamline funding and grant administration for both
the City and agencies providing public services.
A minimum 30-day public comment period is required by HUD. The City of Des Plaines PY
2022 AAP public comment period began on Wednesday, June 8, 2022 and will end on
Monday, July 11, 2022. Notification of this period was published in the Des Plaines Journal &
Topics newspaper on Wednesday, June 1, 2022, and the draft AAP was uploaded to the City’s
website on Wednesday, June 8, 2022. During this time, citizens are invited to submit written
comments or recommendations to the City. Following the public hearing, the AAP will be
placed on the August 1, 2022 City Council agenda for adoption.
Mayor Pro Tem Brookman adjourned the Public Hearing at 7:05 p.m.
Alderman Smith inquired about the percentage of HUD housing planned for the possible future
development at the site of the Journal and Topics building.
City Manager Bartholomew stated the CDBG program is citywide, and the possible future
development at the site of the Journal and Topics building does not have relevance to the
CDBG program. He stated that none of the CDBG funding will go toward that possible
development at Graceland Ave and Webford Ave.
PUBLIC COMMENT Several residents expressed their concern and objection to a possible new development at the
current site of the Journal and Topics Building.

CONSIDER
APPROVING A
CONDITIONAL USE
PERMIT FOR A
MOTOR VEHICLE
SALES AT 622
NORTHWEST HWY
Ordinance
Z-14-22
Director of Community & Economic Development Carlisle reviewed a memorandum dated
June 9, 2022.
The petitioner, Bryan Fleischer of Premier Auto, is requesting a conditional use to allow a
motor vehicle sales use in the C-3 General Commercial district at 622 Northwest Highway.
The subject property at 622 Northwest Highway consists of one parcel totaling 153,529 square
feet (3.52 acres) and currently contains a 31,180-square-foot, one-story multi-tenant
commercial building with multiple paved surface parking lots. It is important to note the
conditional use request is focused solely on the property at 622 Northwest Highway. The
Page 5 of 8 6/20/2022
subject property is currently accessed by one curb-cut off Northwest Highway and three curb-
cuts off Seegers Road. The existing building is set back approximately 14 feet off the west
property line (front) along Northwest Highway, 153 feet from the west property line (rear), 62
feet off the north property line (side), and 150 feet off the south property line (side).
Premier Auto is a car dealership focused on Asian and German brands that is currently
operating in Palatine but is planning to relocate to Des Plaines at the subject property. Premier
Auto plans to operate out of the westernmost tenant space facing Northwest Highway, which
consists of a 2,983-square-foot open office/showroom area, a 260-square-foot interior office
area, a 1,609-square-foot open area to be utilized as a car photo room, and a 742-square-foot
open mechanical and storage area with an overhead door. The petitioner does not plan to make
any alterations or additions to tenant space at this time. The proposed hours of operation are
10 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday, and closed on
Sunday. Up to five employees will be on site Monday through Friday and a reduced staff will
be present on Saturday.
Premier Auto will have access to the north (facing Seegers Road) and west (facing Northwest
Highway) paved surface parking areas for vehicle display as well as parking for customers and
employees. Pursuant to Section 12-9-7 of the Zoning Ordinance, motor vehicle sales uses
require a minimum of one parking space for every 500 square feet of showroom and office
floor area, plus one space for every 20 vehicle display spaces (required off street parking spaces
cannot be occupied by motor vehicles for sale or for lease). The 3,244-square-foot combined
showroom/office areas and 25 proposed vehicle display spaces require a minimum of eight
parking spaces, including one handicap accessible parking space.
The allocation of parking between vehicle display parking, employee parking, and a drive aisle
width will be 12 feet. One-way direction of travel throughout the portion of the site to be
utilized by Premier Auto, with clear striped arrows and one-way/do-not-enter signs. The
property can accommodate eight open parking spaces for patrons, including one handicap
accessible parking space in compliance with all applicable City of Des Plaines codes. The
proposal intends to utilize existing exterior building lighting and there are no immediate plans
to add exterior lighting; staff has added a condition that a Photometric Plan will be required at
time of building permit if new exterior lighting is proposed for the subject property.
The vehicle display and showroom activities proposed on site fall within the Motor Vehicle
Sales use, defined in Section 12-13-3 of the Zoning Ordinance. The subject property is located
within the C-3 district and a Motor Vehicle Sales use requires a conditional use in this district.
Since no conditional use currently exists for this address, a conditional use is required for
Premier Auto to operate on this property.
Staff and the PZB recommended (7-0) that the City Council approve the conditional use
request with the six conditions:
1. A Photometric Plan must be submitted to the City at the time of building permit
application if new exterior lighting is proposed for the Subject Property.
2. All businesses located on the Subject Property must have current and accurate business
registrations and be in full compliance with all applicable City of Des Plaines code.
3. Container storage is prohibited on the Subject Property without appropriate additional
approvals from the City and a valid business registration for a trade contractor
establishment. Any existing contractor storage/trade contractor activities occurring on
the Subject Property must cease immediately until appropriate approvals from the City
are obtained.
4. Commercial truck parking is prohibited on the Subject Property.
5. The Subject Property must be brought into and remain in conformance with all
property maintenance code requirements.
Page 6 of 8 6/20/2022
6. All vehicles parked on the Subject Property must have valid license plates and vehicle
registration at all times.
Director of Community & Economic Development Carlisle recommended amending the
condition of “all vehicles parked on the Subject Property must have valid license plates and
vehicle registration at all times” to “except for vehicles displayed for sale, all vehicles parked
outdoors on the Subject Property must have valid license plates and registration at all times”.
Moved by Smith, seconded by Moylan, to Approve the Ordinance Z-14-22 with staff
recommended amendment, AN ORDINANCE APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE
PERMIT FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE SALES USE AT 622 NORTHWEST HIGHWAY, DES
PLAINES, ILLINOIS (Case #22-017-CU).
Upon voice vote, the vote was:
AYES: 5 - Moylan, Zadrozny, Brookman,
Smith, Ebrahimi
NAYS: 0 - None
ABSENT: 3 - Lysakowski, Oskerka, Chester
Motion declared carried.
CONSIDER
APPROVING A
CONDITIONAL USE
PERMIT FOR A
COMMERCIALLY-
ZONED ASSEMBLY
USE AT 1730
ELMHURST RD
Ordinance
Z-12-22
Director of Community & Economic Development Carlisle reviewed a memorandum dated
June 9, 2022.
The Council considered the first reading of the approving ordinance on May 16, 2022, but
deferred the item to June 6 because it requested the petitioner to obtain a shared parking
agreement with a neighboring property owner (Asbury Court assisted living and nursing
facility at 1750 Elmhurst Road). The petitioner presented that agreement to the Council on
June 6, and the Council discussed. Approving Ordinance Z-12-22 has been updated to
incorporate this agreement as an exhibit, and maintaining the agreement is a condition of
approval.
The petitioner, Sargon Mando, is requesting a conditional use for a Commercially Zoned
Assembly in the C-3 General Commercial District at 1730 Elmhurst Road. The subject
property is an interior lot on the west side of Elmhurst Road in between Oakton Street and the
I-90/Elmhurst Road interchange. It currently shares a curb cut off Elmhurst Road with the
Assisted Living Facility to the south and west. The existing parking areas directly abut the
parking areas for the Assisted Living Facility. The property consists of one parcel totaling
32,638 square feet (0.75 acres) and currently consists of an 8,712-square-foot, one-story
commercial building with a basement, paved parking area, and a 308-square-foot shed. The
existing one-story commercial building is set back approximately 35 feet off the east property
line (front) along Elmhurst Road, 31 feet from the west property line (rear), 22 feet off the
north property line (side), and 108 feet off the south property line (side).
The petitioner owns Lamassu Palace Company, which is a banquet facility that hosts a variety
of different indoor events such as weddings, bridal showers, baby showers, reunions, family
events, corporate events, and galas. The petitioner projects that this site will host events
ranging between 50 to 500 guests. The proposed hours of operation are 6 a.m. to 1 a.m. Monday
through Thursday, 6 a.m. to 2 a.m. Friday and Saturday, and 10:30 a.m. to 1 a.m. on Sundays.
The petitioner is not proposing any changes to the existing building since the building has
already been remodeled by the previous owner and includes:
A main level consisting of a foyer, dumbwaiter system, and two separate banquet hall
rooms, each with a bar area; and
A basement level consisting of a full kitchen with freezers, an office space, restrooms,
storage areas, and mechanical areas.
Page 7 of 8 6/20/2022
The petitioner does propose additional landscaping on the site around the foundation of the
building to soften he transition between the building and the parking area while also providing
some screening from surrounding properties. A banquet hall falls underneath a commercially
zoned assembly use, as defined in Section 12-13-3 of the Zoning Ordinance, which requires a
conditional use permit in the C-3 district pursuant to Section 12-7-3(K). Banquet halls are
required to have one parking space for every 200 square feet of gross floor area. Based on the
Floor Plans, 37 parking spaces, including two handicap accessible spaces, are required. The
Site Plan indicates that there are 77 parking spaces, including two handicap spaces, which
meets this requirement.
The PZB recommended (4-0) that the City Council approve the conditional use request as
presented without any conditions.
Moved by Ebrahimi, seconded by Moylan, to Approve the Ordinance Z-12-22, AN

WAIVING THE

OF THE
COMPLIANCE AND
TEMPORARY
ABEYANCE OF

AGREEMENT
Resolution
R-110-22
The Holiday Inn Express and Suites hotel at 3001 Mannheim Road in the Orchards at O’Hare
development has been operating a commercial parking lot use since approximately mid-July
2021, when first documented by City staff. Commercial parking was not one of the approved
uses of the planned unit development, the final plat for which was approved by Ordinance
Z-18-16 and amended by Ordinances Z-5-19 and Z-10-19. A commercial parking lot also
requires a conditional use in the C-3 district.
The City Council passed Resolution R-189-21 on November 15, 2021, to approve a
Compliance and Temporary Abeyance of Enforcement Agreement (“Agreement”) to allow the
use to operate through November 15, 2022 or whenever the use could be entitled on a
permanent basis. The Agreement required, amongst other obligations, the owners to submit
applications for (i) an amendment to the existing planned unit development and (ii) for a
conditional use to allow the operation of a commercial parking lot in the C-3 Zoning District
(collectively, the “Modified Entitlements”). Property ownership and hotel management is no
longer interested in conducting commercial parking on a permanent basis but would like to
continue to operate the use through November 15, 2022. Consequently, the owners request that
the City Council waive the requirement that the owners apply for the Modified Entitlements.
The commercial parking use consists of typically non-hotel guests, such as O’Hare Airport
travelers, reserving a parking space through third-party apps and websites. The commercial
parking is providing an ancillary revenue stream to hotel. The property lies within the O’Hare
Corridor Privilege Parking Tax Area and is subject to a $1 per car daily parking tax. The
original agreement, which was signed by property ownership and made effective on
November 23, 2021, established specified terms to include meeting the deadline to apply for
the Modified Entitlements.
Property ownership/hotel management did not meet the deadline to apply for the Modified
Entitlements and has notified the City that because of tenant interest in the commercial space
connected to the hotel, a letter of intent for development of a carwash, and other optimism for
continued progress in the development, they do not intend to conduct commercial parking
permanently. They would like to conduct the use through November 15, 2022 as originally

subject address was developed with a building and parking area as early as
1961. The subject property was previously utilized by a dealership, Des Plaines
Honda, which left around April 2021. Although Des Plaines Honda was a motor
vehicle sales use, there was no conditional use on record, which meant it was a
legal nonconforming use. Per Section 12-5-5 (Nonconforming Uses), when a
nonconforming use is discontinued for more than 12 months, a conditional use
is required. Therefore, the proposed business, Just Drive It, requires a
conditional use to operate on this property.
Project Description: The petitioner, Sam Jidd of Just Drive It, LLC, is requesting a conditional use
to allow a motor vehicle sales use in the C-3 General Commercial district at 550
Northwest Highway. The subject property at 550 Northwest Highway consists
of one parcel totaling 23,677 square feet (0.54 acres) and currently contains a
4,387-square-foot, one-story single-tenant commercial building with a lower
level and a paved surface parking lot area as illustrated on the attached Plat of
Survey. The subject property is currently accessed by one curb-cut off
Northwest Highway but does have access to an alley off the northeast property
line via a gate. The existing building is set back approximately 3 feet off the
south property line (front) along Northwest Highway, 105 feet from the north
property line (rear), 0.05 feet off the west property line (side), and 51 feet off
the east property line (side).
Just Drive It is a car dealership looking to locate to Des Plaines at the subject
property. The business will utilize the full building in its operations and remodel
the building’s interior to provide a 3,530-square-foot open showroom area on
the lower level, a 3,843-square-foot office/showroom area on the main level, a
210-square-foot reception area, restrooms on the main and lower levels, and
mechanical space on the lower level as illustrated in the attached Site Plan &
Architectural Plans. The petitioner does plan to update the south exterior of the
building with new paint, aluminum mesh façade, and new wall signs as shown
in the attached Site Plan and Architectural Plans. Given that the proposed
exterior changes alter a street-facing elevation, all proposed changes must
comply with the Building Design Standards in Section 12-3-11 of the Zoning
Ordinance. Metal is a permitted ground story material for a commercial use so
the proposed aluminum façade meets this requirement. The proposed hours of
operation are 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday and closed on the
weekends. Up to ten employees will be on site at one time.
Just Drive It will have access to the east paved surface parking area for parking
for customers and employees. Pursuant to Section 12-9-7 of the Zoning
Ordinance, motor vehicle sales uses require a minimum of one parking space
for every 500 square feet of showroom and office floor area, plus one space for
every 20 vehicle display spaces (required off street parking spaces cannot be
occupied by motor vehicles for sale or for lease). The 7,156-square-foot
combined showroom/office areas and original 40 proposed vehicle display
Page 2 of 36
spaces require a minimum of 17 parking spaces, including one accessible space.
However, the petitioner has recently revised the Site Plan to identify 36 total
parking spaces including 16 required customer spaces and 20 vehicle display
spaces in order to meet the parking regulations in Section 12-9-7.
The attached Site Plan identifies the allocation of parking between vehicle
display parking and employee parking in addition to labeling the minimum 22-
foot-wide travel lane width required for two-way travel in a parking area with
90-degree parking spaces. The revised site plan indicates that the property can
accommodate the new parking requirement of 16 spaces, including two
handicap accessible spaces, and 20 vehicle display spaces in compliance with
all applicable City of Des Plaines codes. There are existing exterior lights on
the property that the petitioner does not intend to alter as part of this request.
While the proposal intends to utilize existing exterior building lighting and there
are no immediate plans to add exterior lighting, staff has added a condition that
a Photometric Plan will be required at time of building permit if new exterior
lighting is proposed for the subject property.
PZB Recommendation and Conditions: The PZB met on June 14, 2022 to consider a conditional use for a
Motor Vehicle Sales use in the C-3 General Commercial District. The Board made findings of fact, the
rationale statements for which are captured in the excerpt to the draft minutes of the June 14, 2022 meeting.
The PZB recommended (6-0) that the City Council approve the conditional use request with the six conditions
in the staff report. The condition to revise the Site Plan has already been met by the petitioner and the revised
Site Plan has been attached to this packet. Thus, the remaining five conditions are provided below for your
consideration. The PZB review is also summarized in the attached Chairman Szabo memo.
Pursuant to Sections 12-3-4.D.4 of the Zoning Ordinance, the City Council may vote to approve, approve
with modifications, or deny the request. The Council has final authority over the conditional use permit, which
would be granted by Ordinance Z-15-22. If PZB recommends approval and City Council ultimately approves
the request, staff recommends the following conditions.
Conditions of Approval:
1. A Photometric Plan must be submitted at the time of building permit application if new exterior
lighting is proposed for the Subject Property.
2. All activities on the Subject Property must be related to the Proposed Use as defined in Section 12-
13-3 of the Zoning Ordinance.
3. That all proposed improvements on the Subject Property must be constructed and maintained in full
compliance with all applicable City of Des Plaines codes.
4. The Subject Property must be brought into and remain in conformance with all City of Des Plaines
property maintenance code requirements.
5. Except for vehicles displayed for sale, all vehicles parked outdoors on the Subject Property must
have valid license plates and registration at all times.

CITY OF DES PLAINES
Subject: Planning and Zoning Board, 550 Northwest Highway, 22-020-CU, 7th Ward
RE: Consideration of a Conditional Use for Motor Vehicle Sales
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Des Plaines City Council:
The Planning and Zoning Board (PZB) held a public hearing on June 14, 2022 to consider a conditional use under Section
12-7-3.K to allow a motor vehicle sales use in the C-3 General Commercial district at 550 Northwest Highway.
1.Jackie Noack, representing Sam Jidd and Just Drive It, LLC, introduced the request to locate a motor vehicle sales
business on the subject property. She mentioned that they are looking to clean-up the subject property, which is
currently in disrepair, and repurpose it for a sales of luxury electric vehicles. She added that they intend to have up
to six employees on site at a given time.
2.PZB members asked how many employees will be on site at a given time; the estimated number of vehicles the
petitioner would sell; if the petitioner will sell only luxury vehicles; and if the petitioner is aware of the
recommended conditions posed by staff. The petitioner responded that they would have six employees on site at a
given time; would sell roughly 30-40 vehicles per month including online sales, which they currently do a lot of at
their current location; that they will be selling all luxury vehicles; and that they are aware of the conditions and have
received them from staff.
3. CED staff summarized the staff report with slides and recommended six conditions if the PZB decided to
recommend approve the conditional use. One condition requires the petitioner to revise the Site Plan to identify the
location of proposed vehicle display spaces and all required parking spaces with dimensions. The other conditions
pertain to operations and use of the subject property as a whole to ensure full compliance of all applicable City
codes.
4.Two members of the public spoke on this request with concerns regarding insuring of vehicles for Just Drive It. An
incident was described involving an accident involving Sam Jidd Motors where the vehicle was not insured and the
incident had not been resolved. The petitioner clarified that Sam Jidd Motors is a separate entity and is not tied with
the proposed Just Drive It business. She also confirmed that all vehicles associated with the proposed business are
insured, including vehicles displayed for sale on the subject property.
5.The PZB recommended (6-0) that the City Council approve the conditional use for motor vehicle sales with the six
conditions in the staff report.
Respectfully submitted,

PIN: 09-18-201-032-0000
Petitioner: Just Drive It, LLC, 1505 S. Mount Prospect Road, Des Plaines, IL 60016
Owners: Auction III, LLC, 1505 S. Mount Prospect Road, Des Plaines, IL 60016
Project Description: The petitioner, Sam Jidd of Just Drive It, LLC, is requesting a conditional
use to allow a motor vehicle sales use in the C-3 General Commercial
district at 550 Northwest Highway. The subject property at 550
Northwest Highway consists of one parcel totaling 23,677 square feet
(0.54 acres) and currently contains a 3,624-square-foot, one-story single-
tenant commercial building with a lower level and a paved surface
parking lot area as illustrated on the attached Plat of Survey. The subject
property is currently accessed by one curb-cut off Northwest Highway
but does have access to an alley off the northeast property line via a gate.
The existing building is set back approximately 3 feet off the south
property line (front) along Northwest Highway, 105 feet from the north
property line (rear), 0.05 feet off the west property line (side), and 51 feet
off the south property line (side).
Just Drive It is a car dealership looking to locate to Des Plaines at the
subject property. The business will utilize the full building in its operations
and remodel the building’s interior to provide a 3,530-square-foot open
showroom area on the lower level, a 3,843-square-foot office/showroom
area on the main level, a 210-square-foot reception area, restrooms on
the main and lower levels, and mechanical space on the lower level as
illustrated in the attached Site Plan & Architectural Plans. The petitioner
does plan to update the south exterior of the building with new paint,
aluminum mesh façade, and new wall signs as shown in the attached Site
Plan and Architectural Plans. Given that the proposed exterior changes
alter a street-facing elevation, all proposed changes must comply with
the Building Design Standards in Section 12-3-11 of the Zoning Ordinance.
Metal is a permitted ground story material for a commercial use so the
proposed aluminum façade meets this requirement. The proposed hours
of operation are 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday and closed on
the weekends. Up to ten employees will be on site at one time.
Just Drive It will have access to the east paved surface parking area for
parking for customers and employees. Pursuant to Section 12-9-7 of the
Zoning Ordinance, motor vehicle sales uses require a minimum of one
parking space for every 500 square feet of showroom and office floor
area, plus one space for every 20 vehicle display spaces (required off
street parking spaces cannot be occupied by motor vehicles for sale or
for lease). The 7,156-square-foot combined showroom/office areas and
40 proposed vehicle display spaces require a minimum of 17 parking
spaces, including one accessible space.
Attachment 8 Page 21 of 36
The attached Site Plan identifies the surface parking area that extends
from the east side of the building to the rear of the lot. However, the
allocation of parking between vehicle display parking and
employee/customer parking is not shown on this plan. As customer
parking is required for this use, staff has added a condition that the Site
Plan is revised and resubmitted to staff prior to the City Council meeting
to identify that the property can accommodate 40 vehicle display spaces
and 17 open parking spaces for patrons and employees, including one
handicap accessible parking space in compliance with all applicable City
of Des Plaines codes. There are existing exterior lights on the property
that the petitioner does not intend to alter as part of this request. While
the proposal intends to utilize existing exterior building lighting and there
are no immediate plans to add exterior lighting, staff has added a
condition that a Photometric Plan will be required at time of building
permit if new exterior lighting is proposed for the subject property.
Conditional Use Findings: Conditional Use requests are subject to the standards set forth in Section 12-3-
4(E) of the Zoning Ordinance. The PZB may use the staff comments below or the attached petitioner
responses as its findings, or the Board may adopt its own:
1. The proposed Conditional Use is in fact a Conditional Use established within the specific Zoning
district involved:
Comment: The proposed principal use is classified as a motor vehicle sales use. A motor vehicle
sales use is a conditional use as specified in Section 12-7-3 of the Zoning Ordinance.
2. The proposed Conditional Use is in accordance with the objectives of the City’s Comprehensive
Plan:
Comment: The subject property is a vacant building with available commercial space. The proposal
would repurpose the building to provide a new business and services for residents.
3. The proposed Conditional Use is designed, constructed, operated and maintained to be
harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing or intended character of the
general vicinity:
Comment: The motor vehicle sales use would utilize the existing building and site, which adjoins
smaller commercial developments. The proposed use is generally harmonious with the
surrounding commercial development on all sides with the exception of the south side that abuts
townhouses.
4. The proposed Conditional Use is not hazardous or disturbing to existing neighboring uses:
Comment: The use would not be hazardous or disturbing to the existing neighboring uses. Instead,
the proposal will improve an underutilized property with a new use.
5. The proposed Conditional Use is to be served adequately by essential public facilities and
services, such as highways, streets, police and fire protection, drainage structures, refuse
disposal, water and sewer, and schools; or, agencies responsible for establishing the Conditional
Use shall provide adequately any such services:
Attachment 8 Page 22 of 36
Comment: The subject property is an interior lot with direct access to essential public facilities
and services. Staff has no concerns that the motor vehicle sales use will be adequately served with
essential public facilities and services similar to other motor vehicle sales uses in the past.
6. The proposed Conditional Use does not create excessive additional requirements at public
expense for public facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic well-being
of the entire community:
Comment: The motor vehicle sales use would neither create a burden on public facilities, nor
would it be a detriment to the economic well-being of the community. The addition of a new use
could help the existing business grow and promote business retention of surrounding commercial
areas.
7. The proposed Conditional Use does not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment
and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons, property, or the general
welfare by reason of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke fumes, glare or odors:
Comment: Aside from the parking of vehicles for sale, activities for the motor vehicle sales use
will take place inside, reducing any noise, smoke fumes, light, glare, odors, or other concerns. The
existing development and site improvements currently do not create adverse effects on
surrounding properties.
8. The proposed Conditional Use provides vehicular access to the property designed so that it does
not create an interference with traffic on surrounding public thoroughfares:
Comment: The proposed use will not create an interference with traffic on surrounding public
thoroughfares as there is an adequate curb-cut off Northwest Highway. The proposal will not alter
the existing access point or add any curb cuts to the existing property.
9. The proposed Conditional Use does not result in the destruction, loss, or damage of natural,
scenic, or historic features of major importance:
Comment: The subject property is already developed so the motor vehicle sales use would not
result in the loss or damage of natural, scenic, or historic features. Instead, the petitioner is
repurposing a vacant property and single-tenant commercial building to provide new services to
the city.
10. The proposed Conditional Use complies with all additional regulations in the Zoning Ordinance
specific to the Conditional Use requested:
Comment: The motor vehicle sales use will comply with all applicable requirements as stated in
the Zoning Ordinance.
PZB Procedure and Recommended Conditions: Under Section 12-3-4(D)(3) (Procedure for Review and
Decision of Conditional Uses), the PZB has the authority to recommend that the City Council approve,
approve subject to conditions, or deny the above-mentioned conditional use request for 550 Northwest
Highway. The City Council has final authority on the proposal.
Consideration of the request should be based on a review of the information presented by the applicant
and the findings above, as specified in Section 12-3-4(E) (Standards for Conditional Uses) of the Zoning
Attachment 8 Page 23 of 36
Ordinance. If PZB recommends approval and City Council ultimately approves the request, staff
recommends the following conditions.
Conditions of Approval:
1. The Site Plan is revised and resubmitted to staff prior to the City Council meeting to identify the
40 vehicle display spaces and 17 required open parking spaces for patrons and employees,
including one handicap accessible parking space, in compliance with all applicable City of Des
Plaines codes.
2. A Photometric Plan will be required at time of building permit if new exterior lighting is proposed
for the subject property.
3. All activities on the subject property shall be related to the motor vehicle sales use as defined in
Section 12-13-3 of the Zoning Ordinance.
4. That all proposed improvements on the subject property are in full compliance with the City of
Des Plaines codes. Any proposed improvements off the subject property shall obtain proper
approvals.
5. The property shall be brought into and remain in conformance with all property maintenance
code requirements.
6. All vehicles parked on the subject property shall contain valid plates and vehicle registration at all
times.
Representative Jackie Noack, 1015 S Mt. Prospect, was sworn-in and provided an overview of the request.
The business will utilize the full building in its operations and remodel the building’s interior to provide a
showroom for the sale of mainly luxury vehicles.
Chairman Szabo asked Ms. Noack the number of employees that will be on site at a given time.
Ms. Noack responded that six employees will be at the location at a time, which is smaller than their
current location, because the subject property will only sell electric vehicles.
Member Hofherr asked if they have an estimate of the number of cars they would sell at this location per
month, six month, or a year.
Ms. Noack said that they would sell between 30-40 vehicles a month at the beginning, adding they also
do a lot of online sales.
Member Hofherr asked if these are new or pre-owned vehicles.
Ms. Noack confirmed that the vehicles will all be pre-owned.
Member Veremis asked if the vehicles will be luxury.
Ms. Noack responded that all vehicles will be luxury and vehicles sold at this location will be luxury electric
vehicles. She added that if they get a trade in vehicle that is non-electric then it would be sold at their
location at 1505 S. Mount Prospect Road.
Attachment 8 Page 24 of 36
Jonathan Stytz, Senior Planner, reviewed the Staff Report. If the recommendation is to approve the
request, staff recommended six conditions.
Chairman Szabo asked if the petitioner was aware of the six conditions recommended by staff.
Ms. Noack confirmed that she was aware of and has received the recommended conditions of approval.
Chairman Szabo asked the audience if there were any questions or comments.
Chairman Szabo swore in Chris Walsh at 564 Webford Avenue.
Mr. Walsh expressed a grievance with the petitioner surrounding an incident where his son was hit by one
of the vehicles owned by the Sam Jidd Motors and he discovered that the vehicles were not insured.
Ms. Noack clarified that the petitioner, Just Drive IT, LLC, is a separate company from Sam Jidd Motors
and that all of their vehicles are insured.
A motion was made by Board Member Saletnik, seconded by Board Member Weaver to approve a
conditional use to allow a motor vehicle sales use in the C-3 General Commercial district at
550 Northwest Highway with the six conditions in the staff report.

NEW BUSINESS #2B.
Street Classification: Wolf Road is classified as a minor arterial.
Comprehensive Plan: The Comprehensive Plan illustrates the site as Commercial.
Zoning/Property History: Based on City records, the property was annexed into Des Plaines in 1927. The
subject address has been utilized as a Domestic Pet Service since 2017 through
a conditional use permit. This conditional use was amended in 2019 to allow
for expanded hours of operation including overnight hours for dog boarding and
an allowance of up to 30 dogs during the day and up to 10 dogs boarded
overnight.
Project Description: The petitioners, Michelle Janczak and Catherine Schilling of Playtime Pup
Ranch, are requesting a conditional use amendment to expand an existing
domestic pet service use in the C-3 General Commercial District at 676 N. Wolf
Road. The business is housed within a tenant space in the Wolf Shopping Plaza,
which is generally at the southwest corner of Wolf and Central Roads. The
property consists of two parcels totaling 30,930 square feet (0.71 acres) and
currently contains an 8,857-square-foot, one-story commercial building with a
182-square-foot outdoor cooler at the rear, 39-space paved parking area to serve
the whole center, and a pole sign as shown on the attached Plat of Survey. The
subject property is accessed by one curb cut off Wolf. The existing one-story
commercial building is set back approximately 92 feet off the east property line
(front) along Wolf Road, 25 feet from the west property line (rear), 3 feet off
the north property line (side), and 14 feet off the south property line (side).
Playtime Pup Ranch is a dog daycare, pet retail, boarding, and grooming facility
that is located in the northern tenant spaces of the shopping center building. The
petitioners desire to expand their existing use into the adjoining 1,000-square-
foot tenant space to the south of their current location to expand the pet
grooming service area, provide a lunch area for employees, and provide an
office area for the business owner. The current hours of operation are 6:30 a.m.
to 6:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, and closed
on Sunday. See the attached Project Narrative for more information. The
petitioner is not proposing any enlargements or changes to the exterior of the
existing building. However, the proposal does include interior remodeling of
the existing and new tenant spaces as shown in the attached Floor Plan of
Existing Space and Floor Plan of New Space, which include details of the layout
and use of the existing business and proposed floor plan of the new tenant space.
Given that the tenant spaces in question are located within a shopping center,
Section 12-9-7 of the Zoning Ordinance requires a minimum of one parking
space for every 1,000 square feet of gross floor area. Thus, a total of 27 parking
spaces are required, which is satisfied by the existing parking spaces available.
The dog daycare, boarding, and grooming activities fall within the domestic pet
service use, defined in Section 12-13-3 of the Zoning Ordinance as an
establishment where the grooming of domestic animals, the accessory sale of
miscellaneous domestic pet food and other items, and the temporary boarding
of domestic animals is permitted. The subject property is located in the C-3
district and a domestic pet service use requires a conditional use in this district.
The current conditional use for a domestic pet service will need to be amended
to allow Playtime Pup Ranch to expand into the new tenant space.
Page 2 of 35
PZB Recommendation and Conditions: The PZB opened the public hearing for this case on May 24, 2022
and continued to June 14, 2022 to consider a conditional use for a domestic pet service use in the C-3 General
Commercial District. The Board made findings of fact, the rationale statements for which are captured in the
excerpt to the approved minutes of the June 14, 2022 meeting. The PZB recommended (6-0) that the City
Council approve the conditional use amendment request without any conditions. The PZB review is also
summarized in the attached Chairman Szabo memo.
Pursuant to Sections 12-3-4.D.4 of the Zoning Ordinance, the City Council may vote to approve, approve
with modifications, or deny the request. The Council has final authority over the conditional use permit, which
would be granted by Ordinance Z-16-22. Staff does not recommend any conditions with this request.

Owner: Michael Galante, 945 Forestview Avenue, Park Ridge, IL 60068
Project Description: The petitioners, Michelle Janczak and Catherine Schilling of Playtime Pup
Ranch, are requesting a conditional use amendment to expand an
existing domestic pet service use in the C-3 General Commercial District
at 676 N. Wolf Road. The business is housed within a tenant space in the
Wolf Shopping Plaza, which is generally at the southwest corner of Wolf
and Central Roads. The property consists of two parcels totaling 30,930
square feet (0.71 acres) and currently contains an 8,857-square-foot,
one-story commercial building with a 182-square-foot outdoor cooler at
the rear, 39-space paved parking area to serve the whole center, and a
pole sign as shown on the attached Plat of Survey. The subject property
is accessed by one curb cut off Wolf. The existing one-story commercial
building is set back approximately 92 feet off the east property line (front)
along Wolf Road, 25 feet from the west property line (rear), 3 feet off the
north property line (side), and 14 feet off the south property line (side).
Playtime Pup Ranch is a dog daycare, pet retail, boarding, and grooming
facility that is located in the northern tenant spaces of the shopping
center building. The petitioners desire to expand their existing use into
the adjoining 1,000-square-foot tenant space to the south of their
current location to expand the pet grooming service area, provide a lunch
area for employees, and provide an office area for the business owner.
The current hours of operation are 6:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Monday
through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, and closed on Sunday. See
the attached Project Narrative for more information. The petitioner is not
proposing any enlargements or changes to the exterior of the existing
building. However, the proposal does include interior remodeling of the
existing and new tenant spaces as shown in the attached Floor Plan of
Existing Space and Floor Plan of New Space, which include details of the
layout and use of the existing business and proposed floor plan of the
new tenant space. Given that the tenant spaces in question are located
within a shopping center, Section 12-9-7 of the Zoning Ordinance
requires a minimum of one parking space for every 1,000 square feet of
gross floor area. Thus, a total of 27 parking spaces are required, which is
satisfied by the existing parking spaces available.
Attachment 7 Page 20 of 35
The dog daycare, boarding, and grooming activities fall within the
domestic pet service use, defined in Section 12-13-3 of the Zoning
Ordinance as an establishment where the grooming of domestic animals,
the accessory sale of miscellaneous domestic pet food and other items,
and the temporary boarding of domestic animals is permitted. The
subject property is located in the C-3 district and a domestic pet service
use requires a conditional use in this district. The current conditional use
for a domestic pet service will need to be amended to allow Playtime Pup
Ranch to expand into the new tenant space.
Conditional Use Findings: Conditional use requests are subject to the standards set forth in Section 12-3-
4(E) of the Zoning Ordinance. The PZB may use the staff comments below or the attached petitioner
responses as its findings, or the Board may adopt its own:
1. The proposed Conditional Use is in fact a Conditional Use established within the specific Zoning
district involved:
Comment: The proposed principal use is classified as a domestic pet service use. A domestic pet
service use is a conditional use as specified in Section 12-7-3 of the Zoning Ordinance.
2. The proposed Conditional Use is in accordance with the objectives of the City’s Comprehensive
Plan:
Comment: The subject property is a multi-tenant building with available commercial space. The
proposal would repurpose available space to provide additional capacity of pet boarding and
grooming services for residents.
3. The proposed Conditional Use is designed, constructed, operated and maintained to be
harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing or intended character of the
general vicinity:
Comment: The expanded domestic pet service use would utilize the existing building and site,
which is harmonious with the surrounding commercial development to the east, north, and south
of the property. As the domestic pet service use is already operational at this location, the
expansion of this use would not change the character or impact of the site on the surrounding
region.
4. The proposed Conditional Use is not hazardous or disturbing to existing neighboring uses:
Comment: The expanded domestic pet service use would not be hazardous or disturbing to the
existing neighboring uses. Instead, the proposal will improve an underutilized portion of the
existing commercial building that is self-contained inside a building and will not detract or disturb
surrounding uses in the area. The expanded domestic pet service use is not anticipated to be
hazardous or disturbing to existing neighborhood uses.
5. The proposed Conditional Use is to be served adequately by essential public facilities and
services, such as highways, streets, police and fire protection, drainage structures, refuse
disposal, water and sewer, and schools; or, agencies responsible for establishing the Conditional
Use shall provide adequately any such services:
Attachment 7 Page 21 of 35
Comment: The subject property is an interior lot with direct access to essential public facilities
and services. Staff has no concerns that the expansion of the existing domestic pet service use will
be adequately served with essential public facilities and services.
6. The proposed Conditional Use does not create excessive additional requirements at public
expense for public facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic well-being
of the entire community:
Comment: The expanded domestic pet service use would neither create a burden on public
facilities, nor would it be a detriment to the economic well-being of the community. The
expansion of the existing use could help the existing business grow and promotes business
retention of surrounding commercial areas.
7. The proposed Conditional Use does not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment
and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons, property, or the general
welfare by reason of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke fumes, glare or odors:
Comment: All activities for the expanded domestic pet service use will continue to take place
inside, reducing any noise, smoke fumes, light, glare, odors, or other concerns. The existing
development and site improvements currently do not project adverse effects on the surrounding
properties.
8. The proposed Conditional Use provides vehicular access to the property designed so that it does
not create an interference with traffic on surrounding public thoroughfares:
Comment: The proposed use will not create an interference with traffic on surrounding public
thoroughfares as access is from an existing street. The proposal will not alter the existing access
point or add any curb cuts to the existing property.
9. The proposed Conditional Use does not result in the destruction, loss, or damage of natural,
scenic, or historic features of major importance:
Comment: The subject property is already developed so the expanded domestic pet service use
would not result in the loss or damage of natural, scenic, or historic features. Instead, the
petitioner is repurposing available space in an existing shopping center in an effort to provide
additional capacity of services to the city.
10. The proposed Conditional Use complies with all additional regulations in the Zoning Ordinance
specific to the Conditional Use requested:
Comment: The expanded domestic pet service use will comply with all applicable requirements
as stated in the Zoning Ordinance.
PZB Procedure and Recommended Conditions: Under Section 12-3-4(D)(3) (Procedure for Review and
Decision of Conditional Uses), the PZB has the authority to recommend that the City Council approve,
approve subject to conditions, or deny the above-mentioned conditional use request for 676 N. Wolf
Road. The City Council has final authority on the proposal.
Consideration of the request should be based on a review of the information presented by the applicant
and the findings made above, as specified in Section 12-3-4(E) (Standards for Conditional Uses) of the
Zoning Ordinance. Staff does not recommend any conditions with this request.
Attachment 7 Page 22 of 35
Petitioner Michelle Janczak, 676 N Wolf Road, Des Plaines, 60016 was sworn in and stated the main
purpose for the request is to expand the pet grooming service area, provide a lunch area for employees,
and provide an office area for the business owner.
Jonathan Stytz, Senior Planner, reviewed the Staff Report.
A motion was made by Board Member Saletnik, seconded by Board Member Hofherr, to recommend
approval of a conditional use amendment to allow an expansion of the existing domestic pet service
use on the subject property in the C-3 General Commercial district, and any other variations, waivers,
and zoning relief as may be necessary.

required.

NEW BUSINESS #2C.
Street Classification: Golf Road is classified as an Other Principal Arterial road.
Comprehensive Plan: The Comprehensive Plan illustrates the property as Commercial Industrial
Urban Mix.
Zoning/Property History: Based on City records, the subject property was annexed into the City in 1965
and has been utilized by Auto Krafters as an automotive service center since
2015.
Project Description: The petitioner, Lou Masco of Liberty Flag and Banner on behalf of Auto
Krafters, is requesting a major variation to allow for a pole sign at 1285 E. Golf
Road on a lot with a lot frontage of 50 feet where a minimum lot frontage of 75
feet is required. This property contains a one-story, 5,332-square-foot building
setback roughly 100 feet from Golf Road with a surface parking lot and two
accessory structures in the rear yard measuring 2,919 square feet and 539square
feet as shown in the attached Plat of Survey. The L-shaped subject property is
located along Golf Road and is positioned behind an existing Nicor Gas service
location also located at 1285 E. Golf Road under PIN 09-17-200-046-0000. The
property is accessed from Golf road next to the Nicor Gas service station where
the property width measures 50 feet. There is an existing wood pole sign that
appears to be installed within the public right-of-way along Golf Road as shown
in the attached Existing Conditions. Given the existing building’s large setback
from Golf Road and the existing development on the adjoining parcel at PIN
09-17-200-046-0000, the existing pole sign serves as the only source of
identification along Golf Road for the building and its tenants.
The petitioner is requesting the replacement of the existing pole sign, as the
pole sign is in disrepair and does not sufficiently identify the businesses in the
building for motorists traveling along Golf Road. Please see the Project
Narrative for additional information. The petitioner proposes to replace the
existing pole sign with a 7.25-foot-tall by 8-foot-wide enclosed pole sign
structure with an overall height of 16.25 feet, including a 3-foot-tall by 8-foot-
wide electronic message board (EMB) component as shown in the attached
Sign Plan. The Zoning Ordinance allows for pole and monument signs to
include one EMB sign component so long as this component does not exceed
50 percent of the total sign. As the EMB component yields 24 square feet and
the total proposed sign area is 58 square feet, this code requirement is met. The
petitioner is also proposing to install a 3-foot-wide landscape bed around the
base of the new pole sign as required by the zoning ordinance as illustrated in
the attached Landscape Plan.
However, pursuant to Section 12-11-6(B) of the Zoning Ordinance, a maximum
of one pole sign is permitted for lots having more than 75 feet of street frontage
on a single street or highway. The petitioner’s request to construct a pole sign
located along a street frontage of less than 75 feet constitute the need for a major
variation.
PZB Recommendation and Conditions: The PZB opened the public hearing for this case on May 24, 2022
and continued it to June 14, 2022 to consider a major variation for pole sign frontage to allow a pole sign at
1285 E. Golf Road. The Board made findings of fact, the rationale statements for which are captured in the
excerpt to the draft minutes of the June 14, 2022 meeting. The PZB recommended (6-0) that the City Council
approve the major variation request with the two conditions in the staff report. The PZB review is also
Page 2 of 24
summarized in the attached Chairman Szabo memo.
Pursuant to Sections 12-3-6.H of the Zoning Ordinance, the City Council may vote to approve, approve with
modifications, or deny the request. The Council has final authority over the major variation, which would be
granted by Ordinance Z-17-22. If the City Council chooses to approve these requests, staff and the PZB recommend
the following conditions:
1. That all appropriate and necessary building permit documents and detail, as determined by the City,
are submitted to the City for the Proposed Sign. All permit documents shall be sealed and signed by a
design professional licensed in the State of Illinois and must comply with all City of Des Plaines
building codes.
2. The Proposed Sign must be designed, positioned, and utilized to meet all applicable City of Des
Plaines codes.

CITY OF DES PLAINES
Subject: Planning and Zoning Board, 1285 Golf Road, 22-014-V, 1st Ward
RE: Consideration of a Major Variation for a Pole Sign
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Des Plaines City Council:
The Planning and Zoning Board (PZB) held a public hearing on June 14, 2022 to consider a major variation under
Section 12-11-6.B to allow a pole sign on a property in the C-2 Limited Office Commercial district at 1285 Golf
Road that does not meet the minimum lot width of 75 feet to allow a pole sign pursuant to code.
1.John Miller, representing Luo Masco, introduced the request to replace an existing pole sign located along
Golf Road with a new pole sign located on the subject property. He mentioned that the zoning ordinance
does not allow them to install a pole sign due to the existing lot width of the subject property, which is
less than the lot width required.
2.PZB members asked if a sign rendering was provided; how far the sign will be setback from the property
lines; and what recommended conditions were posed by staff. CED staff displayed the sign rendering
submitted by the petitioner; confirmed that the proposed sign would be setback 35 feet from the front
property line and five feet from the west side property line; and read the recommended conditions of
approval verbatim to the PZB.
3. CED staff summarized the staff report with slides and recommended two conditions if the PZB intended
to recommend approval of the request. but did not recommend any conditions of approval. The first
condition requires the petitioner to submit all required building permit documents and information for the
proposed pole sign. The other condition requires the proposed pole sign to comply with all applicable City
of Des Plaines codes.
4. No one from the public spoke on this request.
5.The PZB recommended (6-0) that the City Council approve the major variation for lot width for the
installation of a pole sign with the two conditions found in the staff report.
Respectfully submitted,
James Szabo,
Des Plaines Planning and Zoning Board, Chairman

The petitioner is requesting a major variation to allow a pole sign on a property with a lot width that does
not meet the minimum lot width requirements for a pole sign, and any other variations, waivers, and
zoning relief as may be necessary.

Petitioner: Lou Masco, Liberty Flag & Banner, 2747 York Street, Blue Island, IL 60406
Owner: Jack F. Merchant, 1285 E. Golf Road, Des Plaines, IL 60016
Project Description: The petitioner, Lou Masco of Liberty Flag and Banner on behalf of Auto
Krafters, is requesting a major variation to allow for a pole sign at 1285 E.
Golf Road on a lot with a lot frontage of 50 feet where a minimum lot
frontage of 75 feet is required. This property contains a one-story, 5,332-
square-foot building setback roughly 100 feet from Golf Road with a
surface parking lot and two accessory structures in the rear yard
measuring 2,919 square feet and 539square feet as shown in the
attached Plat of Survey. The L-shaped subject property is located along
Golf Road and is positioned behind an existing Nicor Gas service location
also located at 1285 E. Golf Road under PIN 09-17-200-046-0000. The
property is accessed from Golf road next to the Nicor Gas service station
where the property width measures 50 feet. There is an existing wood
pole sign that appears to be installed within the public right-of-way along
Golf Road as shown in the attached Existing Conditions. Given the
existing building’s large setback from Golf Road and the existing
development on the adjoining parcel at PIN 09-17-200-046-0000, the
existing pole sign serves as the only source of identification along Golf
Road for the building and its tenants.
The petitioner is requesting the replacement of the existing pole sign, as
the pole sign is in disrepair and does not sufficiently identify the
businesses in the building for motorists traveling along Golf Road. Please
see the Project Narrative for additional information. The petitioner
proposes to replace the existing pole sign with a 7.25-foot-tall by 8-foot-
wide enclosed pole sign structure with an overall height of 16.25 feet,
including a 3-foot-tall by 8-foot-wide electronic message board (EMB)
component as shown in the attached Sign Plan. The Zoning Ordinance
allows for pole and monument signs to include one EMB sign component
so long as this component does not exceed 50 percent of the total sign.
As the EMB component yields 24 square feet and the total proposed sign
area is 58 square feet, this code requirement is met. The petitioner is also
proposing to install a 3-foot-wide landscape bed around the base of the
new pole sign as required by the zoning ordinance as illustrated in the
attached Landscape Plan.
Attachment 7 Page 10 of 24
However, pursuant to Section 12-11-6(B) of the Zoning Ordinance, a
maximum of one pole sign is permitted for lots having more than 75 feet
of street frontage on a single street or highway. The petitioner’s request
to construct a pole sign located along a street frontage of less than 75
feet constitute the need for a major variation.
Variation Findings: Variation requests are subject to the standards set forth in Section 12-3-6(H) of the
Zoning Ordinance. Staff has the following comments based on the standards. The PZB may use staff
comments, the petitioner’s response, or state their own comments as rationale for its decision, but if
recommending approval, the Board should make statements in the affirmative for how the request would
meet the standards.
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: Carrying out the strict letter of this title would create a particular hardship for the
petitioner given that there is limited visibility of the subject property from Golf Road. The removal
of the existing pole sign without a new sign could further limit the identification of the building
along Golf Road. The subject building is considerably set back from Golf Road and the petitioner
is requesting a new pole sign to increase visibility of the business within the building and the
property as a whole.
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 subject property’s location behind one other lawfully established lot with a narrow
driveway entrance creates a unique physical condition when viewing the property from Golf Road.
The property located directly between the subject property and Golf Road is developed with a
structure and enclosure, which restricts the view of the subject property from Golf Road. The
subject lot is also uniquely shaped with the narrow driveway entrance, which not only limits
motorist and pedestrian views of the property but also limits space for signage. Thus, the
allowance of the variation would assist in reducing the physical constraints of the subject property
and provide much needed visibility, especially for the deliveries associated with this property.
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 hardship was not created by the petitioner or building owner and cannot be
corrected without the approval of the requested variation.
Attachment 7 Page 11 of 24
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 property owner may be denied the right to replace or improve an existing pole
sign without the approval of the requested variation. Given the abnormal shape of the property,
the limited space for signage in accordance with all regulations, and limited visibility of the
property, the petitioner would be unable to effectively advertise businesses operating out the
building. The lack of a sign in this location could make it difficult to locate the property in a safe
and reasonable manner.
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 granting of this variation would not provide the property owner with any special
privilege or right and is not sought to provide the property owner with economic gain as many of
the surrounding commercial buildings do not have visual obstructions or unique physical
conditions comparable to the subject building.
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: The proposed wall signage would be in harmony with the general purposes of this title
and would be compatible with the general purpose and intent of the comprehensive plan. The
replacement of the existing pole sign would improve to the entrance of the property from
aesthetic and functional standpoint.
7. No Other Remedy: There is no means other than the requested variation by which the alleged
hardship or difficulty can be avoided or remedied to a degree sufficient to permit a reasonable
use of the subject lot.
Comment: The granting of the variation is the only remedy to the existing street frontage length
of the existing pole sign without creating additional hardship for the petitioner.
8. Minimum Required: The requested variation is the minimum measure of relief necessary to
alleviate the alleged hardship or difficulty presented by the strict application of this title.
Comment: The granting of these variation is the minimum relief necessary to alleviate the
hardship for the petitioner. The petitioner wishes to remove the existing pole sign and replace it
with a new pole sign in conformance with all other zoning regulations.
PZB Procedure and Recommended Conditions: Under Section 12-3-6(G)(2) (Procedure for Review and
Decision for Major Variation) of the Zoning Ordinance, the PZB has the authority to recommend that the
City Council approve, approve subject to conditions, or deny the above-mentioned major variation at 1285
E. Golf Road. The City Council has final authority on the proposal.
Attachment 7 Page 12 of 24
Consideration of the request should be based on a review of the information presented by the applicant
and findings of fact, as specified in Section 12-3-6(H) (Standards for Variation) of the Zoning Ordinance. If
the PZB recommends and City Council ultimately approves the request, staff recommends the following
conditions:
Conditions of Approval:
1.That all appropriate building permit documents and details are submitted as necessary for the
proposed pole sign. All permit documents shall be sealed and signed by a design professional
licensed in the State of Illinois and must comply with all City of Des Plaines building codes.
2.The pole sign is designed, positioned, and utilized to meet all applicable City of Des Plaines codes.
Chairman Szabo swore-in Petitioner John Miller, representing Liberty Flag & Banner, 2747 York Street,
Blue Island, IL 60406.
Mr. Miller requested a new pole sign with an electronic banner to replace the existing pole sign. There is
only 50-feet of frontage and this size is not allowed. The new sign is proposed in the same area and is
located at the required 5-foot setback.
Chairman Szabo asked if there was a rendering of the proposed sign.
Senior Planner Stytz displayed the sign rendering provided by the petitioner on the screen.
Chairman Szabo asked if the proposed sign will be in the same area as the existing sign.
Mr. Miller confirmed that the proposed sign will be in the same general area as the existing sign but will
be setback five feet from the property line.
Jonathan Stytz, Senior Planner, reviewed the Staff Report and read aloud the two recommended
conditions for approval.
Member Saletnik clarified that the proposed sign is located approximately 35-feet from the roadway.
A motion was made by Board Member Weaver, seconded by Board Member Veremis, to recommend
approval of a Major variation to allow a pole sign on a property with a lot width that does not meet the
minimum lot width requirements for a pole sign, and any other variations, waivers, and zoning relief as
may be necessary.
AYES: Szabo, Veremis, Saletnik, Hofherr, Fowler, Weaver
NAYES: None
ABSTAIN: None

From: John T. Carlisle, AICP, Director of Community & Economic Development
Subject: Zoning and City Code (Property Maintenance) Amendments Regarding Recreational
Vehicles; Zoning Amendments Regarding Moving-Vehicle Leasing/Rental
Issue: Consideration of the following amendments regarding recreational vehicles (RVs): In the Zoning
Ordinance, (i) establish a term definition for “Vehicle, Recreational”; (ii) amend existing vehicle and
equipment definitions for clarification; (iii) create a new section to address specifically RV parking
regulations; and (iv) establish a standard variation from certain RV parking regulations in residential districts.
In addition, for the Council’s consideration are amendments to the City Code (Local Amendments to the
International Property Maintenance Code, Section 10-9-2), to establish a reference to the off-street parking
regulations for RVs in the Zoning Ordinance.
Finally, for the Council’s consideration are the following Zoning Ordinance amendments related to moving-
vehicles for lease (e.g. U-Haul rental): (i) define commercial vehicles, moving vehicles, and moving-vehicle
leasing agents; (ii) add the newly defined moving-vehicle leasing use as a conditional use in the C-3 District,
with various limitations; and (iii) add the newly defined moving vehicle leasing use as a permitted use in the
M-1 and M-2 Districts.
PIN: Citywide
Petitioner: City of Des Plaines, 1420 Miner Street, Des Plaines, IL 60016
Case Number: #22-022-TA
Project Summary: The City of Des Plaines is applying for various zoning text amendments related
to vehicle and use definitions, off-street parking regulations, and relief and
approval processes. The proposed amendments cover (i) recreational vehicles
and (ii) moving vehicles. The Property Maintenance Code within City Code is
proposed to be amended to refer to the newly created zoning regulations.
Background: RV Regulations
The City Council and City Manager assigned staff in early 2022 to examine the City’s existing RV rules. In
particular, the Council and Manager were interested in parking location and size regulations, with an emphasis
on vehicles that are not actively or frequently used but are parked outdoors on residential properties
MEMORANDUM
Page 1 of 27
NEW BUSINESS #2D.
(distinguished from and those displayed for sale at a commercial business). Staff began by comparing Des
Plaines to other communities. Review and research revealed Des Plaines does not have regulations on these
issues in the Zoning Ordinance, only in the Property Maintenance section of City Code, and further, existing
rules do not clearly define a recreational vehicle. Staff provided this cursory research to the Council and
Manager, who then asked staff to devise a general summary of a list of potential regulations. Now, staff on
behalf of the City has applied for and written full amendments for potential adoption.
As part of research, staff contacted the Northwest Municipal Conference (NWMC), which provided 2017
survey data results from member communities. A table summarizing these results is Attachment 1. To
summarize:
• Like Des Plaines, most communities require RV parking only on a hard surface.
• Some communities also have maximum heights, lengths, and/or widths, while others do not.
• Some communities allow parking only in less-visible portions of properties, such as only in the
required rear yard but not in the required front or side yards; and
• Some others establish a minimum distance (setback) from lot lines.
Proposed Amendments: RV Regulations
All proposed amendments are contained in approving Ordinance Z-18-22. Additions are bold, double-
underline. Deletions are struck through. Amended sections are provided with some surrounding,
unamended text for context. The following is a summary of the proposed zoning amendments relating to
recreational vehicles:
• Add a term definition for “vehicle, recreational” that includes terms such as “motor home,”
“camper,” “trailer,” and smaller vehicles such as all-terrain, snowmobiles, and jet skis.
• In the off-street parking regulations, add the following restrictions (exempting business uses that
conduct the permitted sale of RVs):
o In residential zoning districts:
RVs parked outdoors cannot exceed a certain length, width, and height: 32 feet in
length, 8 feet in width, 12 feet in height.
No more than one RV may be parked outdoors per zoning lot of 10,000 square feet or
less. No more than two RVs may be parked outdoors on a zoning lot of 10,000 square
feet or greater.
No portion of an RV may encroach upon public right-of-way, including streets,
sidewalks, driveway aprons, or alleys.
Except for loading or unloading for a period of 24 hours, no portion of an RV may be
parked nearer to front or corner side lot lines than any portion of the principal
structure (i.e. usually a house).
A screening mechanism, such as a solid fence or dense row of bushes must be
installed, except where an RV is parked for 24 hours for the purpose of loading or
unloading.
o In non-residential zoning districts:
No RV parking in the C-1, C-2, or C-5 districts.
Where allowed, RVs may be parked in a required yard but at least five feet from any
lot line in an off-street parking space that complies with all other rules (e.g. surface,
striping, design).
Where abutting or adjacent to a residential district, a screening mechanism must be
installed.
o Variation option: Given unique circumstances for properties in a residential district, a
standard variation (Planning & Zoning Board authority) may be granted. All other relief
would be a major variation (City Council authority).
Page 2 of 27
In the attached ordinances, M-20-22 would make a small amendment the City Code, specifically in the
Local Amendments to the International Property Maintenance Code (Sub-Sections 302.8 Motor Vehicles
and 302.8.1 Parking of Section 10-9-2). References to the pertinent sections of the Zoning Ordinance would
be added there. However, the existing rules in those sub-sections would be retained and are enforceable.
RVs must be:
• Operable and licensed;
• Not in a state of major disrepair or disassembly;
• Parked or stored either inside an enclosed structure such as a garage or in an approved off-street
parking area, such as a driveway, carport, or parking lot, as further regulated by Zoning; and
• Cannot be stored on grass, dirt, parkways, or any similar non-hard surface.
Background: Moving Vehicles
In April 2022, code enforcement staff became aware of multiple moving-vehicle rental enterprises,
specifically U-Haul, that had begun operating without permission of the City. The enterprises were add-ons
to existing businesses and commercial properties, including a retail establishment within a shopping center,
a gas station, a car wash, and an automotive services establishment, all located in the C-3 General
Commercial District. While the properties were not overrun with U-Haul vehicles or activity, it was
observed that at least a handful of vehicles in each area were parked on the lots at all times. In all four cases,
these operations were separate and subordinate from the core, primary business activities. Staff determined
that these operations ran afoul in two ways: a.) the business registrations for these entities had not been
updated to accurately reflect the U-Haul operation (Chapter 4-1 of the City Code) and b.) the Zoning
Ordinance did not clearly define U-Haul rental and therefore did not provide for an option for these
activities.
While accessory uses are generally permitted in all districts, it was determined that U-Haul rental in all
instances was subordinate (i.e. smaller than the principal use) but not incidental (i.e. complementary to) the
principal uses being conducted at the existing businesses. Therefore, it qualifies as a separate use,
specifically a secondary principal use. Consider that this is a different situation than a standalone U-Haul
business, often where self-storage is provided (defined as “Commercial Storage Facility”). In this case, the
leasing of U-Haul vehicles would be an accessory to commercial storage—it is both incidental and
subordinate.
To attempt to determine a use category, three existing terms were reviewed, and the intent of all of the terms
did not fit.
• Commercial Motor Vehicle Sales and Leasing: Definition in Section 12-13-3 of the Zoning
Ordinances lists as examples very large vehicles and equipment;
• Leasing/Rental Agents, Equipment: Definition lists as examples mostly non-vehicles; and
• Leasing/Rental Agents, Vehicle: Definition lists as examples personal and recreational vehicles,
likely contemplating traditional rental car establishments.
Therefore, staff notified the violating establishments but suspended enforcement, pending the outcome of
zoning text amendments to establish an appropriate regulatory framework. After the regulations would be
set up, the establishments would be notified of the new rules and required process, and be given a deadline
to come into compliance. To staff, U-Haul rental as a small portion of a larger business, on certain
properties, may make sense as an ancillary revenue stream. Staff aspires to carry out the vision of decision
makers that the City be business-friendly. However, there may be practical concerns – such as parking
availability for the primary use(s) on properties – and aesthetics or adjacent property character that would
prevent moving-vehicle leasing from being compatible and reasonable at certain properties. Establishing
Page 3 of 27
clear and reasonable rules would strike a balance between supporting local business and addressing
concerns.
Proposed Amendments: Moving Vehicles
All proposed amendments are contained in attached approving Ordinance Z-19-22. Additions are bold,
double-underline. Deletions are struck through. Amended sections are provided with some surrounding,
unamended text for context. The following is a summary of the proposed zoning amendments relating to
moving-vehicle uses:
•Add term definitions for “Vehicle, Commercial” and “Vehicle, Moving.”
•Add a term definition for “Leasing/Rental Agents, Moving Vehicle.”
o While similar to “Leasing/Rental Agents, Vehicle” – which would be amended to
“Leasing/Rental Agents, Vehicle (Non-Moving) to draw a clear distinction – the new term
definition expresses for both a principal use and a secondary principal use on a zoning lot
(i.e. different from an accessory use, but secondary to the primary, or main, principal use)
o The use will carry an off-street parking minimum in addition to the requirement for the
primary use of the zoning lot.
•Allow “Leasing/Rental Agents, Moving Vehicle” as a conditional use in the C-3 General
Commercial District
o Newly proposed Footnote 24 caps the number of moving vehicles for lease or display at five.
The Footnote requires them to be parked in permanently striped off-street parking spaces and
to follow all other off-street parking requirements, including the sum of the total
requirements for all uses on the zoning lot.
o Representatives of U-Haul have asked the City to consider allowing this as a permitted use
instead of a conditional use. Given the parameters in the footnote, the Council may feel
permitted use is appropriate. The Planning and Zoning Board (PZB) has recommended
conditional use in the C-3 District, but the Council may change to permitted use if it chooses.
In general, permitted use is a friendlier process to business, but conditional use allows the
City to determine the appropriateness of the proposed operations on a case-by-case basis.
•Allow “Leasing/Rental Agents, Moving Vehicle” as a permitted use in the M-1 Limited
Manufacturing District and M-2 General Manufacturing District.
PZB Recommendation and Findings of Fact:
The PZB held a public hearing on Tuesday, June 14, and voted 6-0 to recommend approval with one
modification to the amendments as presented by staff: The Board added a height limitation of 12 feet for
recreational vehicles. This modification has been included with the amendments for Council’s consideration
of Ordinance Z-18-22. Rationale that serves as Findings of Fact on the standards for text amendments (Section
12-3-7.E. of the Zoning Ordinance) is included with the attached excerpt of the June 14 meeting minutes.
City Council Action: Under Section 12-3-7.D. of the Zoning Ordinance, the City Council may approve,
approve with modifications, or deny the amendments. While all of the zoning amendments pertain to vehicles
and parking, they address two different issues or sets of circumstances – recreational vehicles and moving
vehicles – and therefore have been divided into two separate ordinances. The City Code Amendment is broken
out into a separate ordinance. The Council should take three individual motions on these ordinances.

Mayor Goczkowski and Des Plaines City Council, CITY OF DES PLAINES
Subject: Planning and Zoning Board (PZB), Zoning Text Amendments, Case #22-022-TA
RE: Consideration of Zoning Text Amendments Related to Recreational Vehicles and Moving-Vehicle
Leasing Uses (e.g. U-Haul).
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council:
The PZB met on June 14, 2022 to consider the City’s Text Amendment request regarding terms, off-street parking
regulations, variation options, and use approval processes regarding (i) recreational vehicles and (ii) moving-
vehicle leasing (e.g. U-Haul),
1.Staff, on behalf of the City, presented the background and rationale of the amendments, noting the
assignment to study and devise amendments came from the City Council.
2.One Board Member (Hofherr) drew upon his experience as a municipal code enforcement officer and
suggested a height limitation between 10-12 feet be added to the RV regulations. The Board reviewed
other communities’ rules in the materials, discussed, and agreed on 12 feet.
3.The Board asked staff to explain the difference between an accessory use and a secondary principal use.
Staff read these definitions and provided examples, noting that in the instances recently observed at
existing businesses, the leasing of moving vehicles was a secondary principal use but not accessory.
4.At staff’s prompting, the Board also discussed the moving-vehicle leasing use and whether permitted or
conditional use was most appropriate for the C-3 district. The Board settled on conditional use, which is
being passed along in its recommended amendments to the Council.
5. No members of the public spoke on this request.
6.The Planning and Zoning Board recommended (6-0) that the City Council approve of the request as
modified; the modification is to add a height limitation to RVs parked outdoors to 12 feet.
Respectfully submitted,
James Szabo,
Des Plaines Planning and Zoning Board, Chairman

Case Number: #22-022-TA
Project Summary: The City of Des Plaines is applying for various zoning text amendments
related to vehicle and use definitions, parking regulations, and relief and
approval processes. The proposed amendments cover (i) recreational
vehicles and (ii) moving vehicles. Background is provided for each
separately, but the amendments (Attachment 1) encompass both issues.
John Carlisle, Director of Community & Economic Development, reviewed the staff report:
Background: RV Regulations
The City Council and City Manager assigned staff in early 2022 to examine the City’s existing RV rules. In
particular, the Council and Manager were interested in parking location and size regulations, with an
emphasis on vehicles that are not actively or frequently used and those not displayed for sale at a
commercial business. They urged staff to compare Des Plaines to other communities. What staff found
was Des Plaines does not have regulations on these issues in the Zoning Ordinance, only in the Property
Maintenance section of the Construction Regulations of City Code, and further, existing rules do not
clearly define a recreational vehicle. Staff provided this cursory research to the Council and Manager, who
then asked staff to devise a general summary of a list of potential regulations. Now, staff has been asked
to apply for and write full amendments for consideration and recommendation of the PZB, with potential
adoption by the Council.
As part of research, staff contacted the Northwest Municipal Conference (NWMC), which provided 2017
survey data results from member communities. These results are Attachment 2. To summarize:
• Like Des Plaines, most communities require RV parking only on a hard surface.
• Some communities also have maximum heights, lengths, and/or widths, while others do not.
• Some communities allow parking only in less-visible portions of properties, such as only in the
required rear yard but not in the required front or side yards; and
• Some others establish a minimum distance (setback) from lot lines.

Attachment 3 Page 11 of 27
Proposed Amendments: RV Regulations
All proposed amendments are contained in Attachment 1. Additions are bold, double-underline.
Deletions are struck through. Amended sections are provided with some surrounding, unamended text
for context. The following is a summary of the proposed zoning amendments relating to recreational
vehicles:
• Add a term definition for “vehicle, recreational” that includes terms such as “motor home,”
“camper,” “trailer,” and smaller vehicles such as all-terrain, snowmobiles, and jet skis.
• In the off-street parking regulations, add the following restrictions (exempting business uses
that conduct the permitted sale of RVs):
o In residential zoning districts:
▪ RVs parked outdoors cannot exceed a certain length and width (tentatively 32
feet in length and 8 feet in width).
▪ No more than one RV may be parked outdoors per zoning lot of 10,000 square
feet or less. No more than two RVs may be parked outdoors on a zoning lot of
10,000 square feet or greater.
▪ No portion of an RV may encroach upon public right-of-way, including streets,
sidewalks, driveway aprons, or alleys.
▪ Except for loading or unloading for a period of 24 hours, no portion of an RV
may be parked nearer to front or corner side lot lines than any portion of the
principal structure (i.e. usually a house).
▪ A screening mechanism, such as a solid fence or dense row of bushes, no less
than six feet in height, must be installed, except where an RV is parked for 24
hours for the purpose of loading or unloading.
o In non-residential zoning districts:
▪ No RV parking in the C-1, C-2, or C-5 districts.
▪ Where allowed, RVs may be parked in a required yard but at least five feet from
any lot line in an off-street parking space that complies with all other rules (e.g.
surface, striping, design).
▪ Where abutting or adjacent to a residential district, a screening mechanism
must be installed.
o Variation option:
▪ For unique circumstances on properties in a residential district, a standard
variation (Planning & Zoning Board) may be granted. All other relief would be a
major variation.
Although not within the purview of the PZB, once the Board recommends approval of amendments, the
City Council would concurrently consider a small amendment the City Code, specifically in the Local
Amendments to the International Property Maintenance Code (Sub-Sections 302.8 Motor Vehicles and
302.8.1 Parking of Section 10-9-2). A reference to the pertinent sections of the Zoning Ordinance would
be added there. The existing rules in those sub-sections would be retained. RVs must be:
• Operable and licensed;
• Not in a state of major disrepair or disassembly;
• Parked or stored either inside an enclosed structure such as a garage or in an approved off-
street parking area, such as a driveway, carport, or parking lot, as further regulated by
Zoning; and
Attachment 3 Page 12 of 27
• Cannot be stored on grass, dirt, parkways, or any similar non-hard surface.
Background: Moving Vehicles
In April 2022, code enforcement staff became aware of multiple moving-vehicle rental business
operations, specifically U-Haul, that had begun operating without permission of the City. These
businesses included a retail establishment within a shopping center, a gas station, a car wash, and an
automotive services establishment, all located in the C-3 General Commercial District. While the
properties were not overrun with U-Haul vehicles or activity, it was observed that at least a handful of
vehicles in each area were parked on the lots at all times. In all four cases, these operations were
separate and subordinate from the core, primary business activities occurring there. Staff determined
that these operations ran afoul in two ways: a.) the business registrations for these entities had not
been updated to accurately reflect the U-Haul operation (Chapter 4-1 of the City Code) and b.) the
Zoning Ordinance did not clearly define U-Haul rental. Three existing terms were reviewed, and it was
determined the intent of all of the terms did not fit.
• Commercial Motor Vehicle Sales and Leasing: Lists as examples very large vehicles and
equipment
• Leasing/Rental Agents, Equipment: Lists as examples mostly non-vehicles
• Leasing/Rental Agents, Vehicle: Lists as examples personal and recreational vehicles, likely
contemplating traditional rental car establishments
Therefore, staff notified the violating establishments but suspended enforcement, pending the outcome
of zoning text amendments to establish an appropriate regulatory framework. To staff, U-Haul rental as
a small portion of a larger business, on certain properties, may make sense as an ancillary revenue
stream. Certainly staff aspires to carry out the vision of decision makers that the City be business-
friendly. However, there may be practical concerns – such as parking availability for the primary use(s)
on properties – and aesthetics or adjacent property character that would prevent moving-vehicle leasing
from being compatible necessitates an intentional set of rules.
Proposed Amendments: Moving Vehicles
All proposed amendments are contained in Attachment 1. Additions are bold, double-underline.
Deletions are struck through. Amended sections are provided with some surrounding, unamended text
for context. The following is a summary of the proposed zoning amendments relating to recreational
vehicles:
• Add term definitions for “Vehicle, Commercial” and “Vehicle, Moving.”
• Add a term definition for “Leasing/Rental Agents, Moving Vehicle.”
o While similar to Leasing/Rental Agents, Vehicle,” this term expresses intent that it may
be a secondary principal use on a zoning lot (i.e. different from an accessory use, but
secondary to the primary, or main, principal use)
o The use will carry an off-street parking minimum in addition to the requirement for the
primary use of the zoning lot.
Attachment 3 Page 13 of 27
• Allow “Leasing/Rental Agents, Moving Vehicle” as a conditional use in the C-3 General
Commercial District
o Newly proposed Footnote 24 caps the number of moving vehicles for lease or display at
five (5). The Footnote requires them to be parked in permanently striped off-street
parking spaces and to follow all other off-street parking requirements, including the sum
of the total requirements for all uses on the zoning lot.
o Representatives of U-Haul have asked the City to consider allowing this as a permitted
use instead of a conditional use. Given the parameters in the footnote, the Board may
feel permitted use is appropriate. Staff has put forth conditional use in the proposed
amendments but would change the amendment language based on the Board’s
recommendation. In general, permitted use is friendlier to business, but conditional use
allows the City to determine the appropriateness of the proposed operations on a case-
by-case basis.
• Allow “Leasing/Rental Agents, Moving Vehicle” as a permitted use in the M-1 Limited
Manufacturing District and M-2 General Manufacturing District.
Standards for Text Amendments:
The following is a discussion of standards for zoning amendments from Section 12-3-7.E of the Zoning
Ordinance. Rationale for how the proposed amendments would satisfy the standards is provided. The
Board may use the comments as Findings of Fact, modify, or adopt its own.
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;
Comments: The Comprehensive Plan does not directly address either recreational or moving vehicles,
but through its assertion to “preserve and enhance single-family neighborhoods” (p. 11) and
strengthen commercial corridors and industrial areas (Chapter 3: Economic Development). Common-
sense, reasonable regulations on recreational vehicles and moving vehicles works to achieve that.
PZB Additions or Modifications (if necessary): None
2. Whether the proposed amendment is compatible with current conditions and the overall
character of existing development;
Comments: The amendments draw from existing terms, parking regulations, and the structure of the
Zoning Ordinance and Map (i.e. districts) to craft regulations that are complementary to existing
conditions.
PZB Additions or Modifications (if necessary): None.
3. Whether the proposed amendment is appropriate considering the adequacy of public facilities
and services available;
Comments: The amendments should not have an effect on public facilities and services.
Attachment 3 Page 14 of 27
PZB Additions or Modifications (if necessary): None.
4. Whether the proposed amendment will have an adverse effect on the value of properties
throughout the jurisdiction; and
Comments: By balancing business and private property needs through reasonable restrictions that
address aesthetics and character (by considering district type and classification), the amendments
should not have an adverse effect on property values. They intend to allow the reasonable use of
property without inhibiting the enjoyment of property by adjacent owners and users.
PZB Additions or Modifications (if necessary): None.
5. Whether the proposed amendment reflects responsible standards for development and
growth.
Comments: The amendments are based in research of regulations in peer communities in the region
overall, as well as respond to issues encountered by the City Council and staff, with input from private
businesses (i.e. U-Haul).
PZB Additions or Modifications (if necessary): None.
Director Carlisle stated staff was directed to review the Zoning Ordinance and propose amendments to
strength the rules as it pertains to parking of large motor homes and campers parked primarily in
residential areas.
Director Carlisle reviewed the Recreational Vehicles Parking Survey. Director Carlisle explained that the
proposed amendments are standard between other communities and does not feel that imposing the
proposed amendments will create issues, but is in line and will fit with other regulations.
Member Hofherr recommended adding a maximum height of 12 feet for a recreational vehicle in Section
12-9-11.
Director Carlisle stated that box trucks, U-Haul type of vehicles are a type of add-on business; they are all
located in the C-3 Zoning District. Currently, there is no language in the Zoning Code that fits allowing
these secondary use businesses. With the proposed amendments the secondary business would be
allowed but has to clearly be related to the principal use.
A motion was made by Board Member Hofherr, seconded by Board Member Fowler, to recommend
approval of various zoning text amendments related to vehicle and use definitions, parking regulations,
and relief and approval processes, with the modification to add a height limitation of 12 feet to the
recreational vehicle rules. The proposed amendments cover (i) recreational vehicles and (ii) moving
vehicles.
