New Business
2026-011A – 7120 Laramie Avenue (Non-Residential)
Applicant: Dov Shandalov
Owner: Hillel Torah North Suburban Day School
Request: Additions and Façade improvements

Staff reported that the applicant had received a positive recommendation from the Plan
Commission on March 5, 2026 for a site plan approval including a 2,485 square foot addition
and façade modifications. The applicant was now seeking a Certificate of Appropriateness for a
proposed monument sign and associated façade improvements. Staff noted no aesthetic
objections to the proposed elevations, finding that the selected exterior materials and finishes
would provide a cohesive and updated appearance. Staff's primary concern was whether
adequate safety measures would be implemented to protect the playground area from
vehicular traffic associated with the drive-through access from Laramie Avenue.




Doc # 639732
The applicant was represented by Stuart Brodsky and Jennifer Slasky, architects at Dwight and
Company; Larry Goldman, owner representative; Rabbi Menachem Linzer, head of school; and
Steve Gregory, landscape architect and engineer.
The design team explained that the building had been constructed in phases from
approximately 1959 through the 1990s, resulting in a discontinuous and non-harmonious
appearance. The primary goal of the project was to unify the façade through the introduction of
an ashlar-pattern cement fiber panel system across the front elevation. The addition itself
consists of three components: two courtyard infills and a front pocket infill that brings the
administrative offices to the building's front, creating an identifiable and secure main entrance
with direct sightlines for supervision.
Regarding staff's playground safety concern, the design team confirmed that the playground
area would be protected from vehicular traffic by a double-layered concrete planter wall
serving as a vehicle barrier, with a continuous two-foot concrete wall extending along the north
side of the building topped by a six-foot cedar wood fence. The team also noted that a new
sidewalk connecting handicapped parking to the main entrance was incorporated into the
design, providing pedestrian separation from the drive lane.
Commissioners responded positively to the project overall, praising the design quality, cohesive
color palette, and use of native plantings. Commissioner Ruiz confirmed the total fence height
of six feet (two feet of concrete wall plus four feet of wood), noting this had been reduced from
an original eight-foot proposal in response to earlier staff input. Commissioners inquired about
the texture of the cedar fence and was informed it would feature vertical cedar boards with a
tan stain to complement the wood panel accents. The use of planters as vehicle protection
elements, as an aesthetic alternative to bollards, was also commended.
Recommendation & Voting
A motion was made to grant a Certificate of Appropriateness for Case No. 2026-011A at 7120
Laramie Avenue as presented.

2026-012A – 4736 Dempster Street (Non-Residential)
Applicant: USA Laundromat LLC
Owner: Mahaesh Patel


Doc # 639732
Request: Façade improvements
Staff reported that the applicant was proposing new signage and exterior façade updates for
the entire building at 4736 Dempster Street, including the adjacent physical therapy tenant. The
proposal included painting the building's body a dark royal blue with a white parapet wall and
replacing existing canopies with red ones, consistent with a red, white, and blue USA flag color
theme. Staff noted two concerns: (1) the proposed LED light strips along the top of the building
are not permitted under Section 100-1871 of the Village Zoning Code; and (2) staff expressed
concern regarding the long-term maintenance of painted masonry on a south-facing façade.


The applicant, Linus (owner), was accompanied by his project manager John and sign vendor
Hakim. Hakim presented the proposed signage, which included a channel-letter, backplate-
mounted sign for USA Laundromat with white illuminated letters and a royal blue back-glow
effect, as well as replacement canopies in a USA flag red. He also presented an example of a GE
Contour LED rope light system installed at a Golden Corral location in Kenosha, which the
applicant proposed to run along the top of the building as an accent, arguing it was a low-
intensity accent rather than a bright illumination feature.

The Chair raised concerns about staff's noted maintenance issues with dark-colored painted
masonry on a south-facing building, and presented the Commission with an alternative color
rendering. This alternative proposed keeping the building body in a lighter, off-white or
alabaster tone (Sherwin-Williams Alabaster), with navy blue awnings and red accent
elements—preserving the flag color theme but in a more refined distribution. The Chair noted
this would also mitigate long-term fading and upkeep issues.

Commissioners discussed the relative merits of both approaches. One commissioner indicated
he could support the original royal blue scheme but preferred the alternative. Another
commissioner concurred, having initially mistaken the dark blue for black in the submitted
materials. The applicant confirmed he was amenable to the revised color scheme, as it still
incorporated all three flag colors consistent with his intended interior design theme.

Regarding the proposed LED light strips, commissioners acknowledged that this element falls
outside the Commission's purview as it is expressly prohibited under the Village Zoning Code
and therefore could not be included in the motion.

On the signage, commissioners discussed whether the black backplate of the USA Laundromat
channel letter sign was necessary. The sign vendor explained that the backplate was structurally
required to conceal the raceway and achieve the royal blue back-glow effect, and that without
it the sign would appear unfinished. The Commission found the signage acceptable as
presented. One commissioner raised a general design observation about whether a standalone



Doc # 639732
letter sign without a backplate might be more elegant, but ultimately no objection to the sign
as proposed was recorded.
Recommendation & Voting
A motion was made to grant a Certificate of Appropriateness for Case No. 2026-012A at 4736
Dempster Street, subject to a revised color scheme featuring a predominantly white
background while still incorporating colors of the U.S. flag, and the omission of LED rope
lighting on the building.

2026-013A – 9719 Skokie Boulevard (Non-Residential)
Applicant: John Bradshaw
Owner: Adam Miller
Request: Façade improvements

Staff reported that the applicant was proposing to clean up the north-facing façade of the
southernmost building of the Shops of Orchard Place (formerly Walter E. Smith space) at 9719
Skokie Boulevard. No significant design changes were proposed; materials were to match the
existing building. Staff had no objections or comments.
John Bradshaw, Principal Architect with Camburas and Theodore of Des Plaines, presented the
proposal. He explained that the space previously occupied by a single tenant (Walter E. Smith)
would be subdivided to accommodate up to three tenants. To create equal presence and sign
band for each tenant, the central projecting brick pilaster element at the top of the façade
would be removed, creating a more continuous, uniform sign band across the full frontage.
Brick, EIFS, and limestone banding throughout the affected areas would be patched or
repainted to match the existing building. Any storefront framing being replaced (approximately
60–70% of the visible storefront) would be done in a charcoal gray aluminum, and existing
green-colored mullions on the retained Panera portion of the building would be painted with an
elastomeric paint to match, providing visual cohesiveness across the full building front.
One commissioner raised concern about the removal of the brick pilasters, noting that the brick
detailing contributed to a unifying design theme shared across the broader shopping complex.
The applicant acknowledged the observation but maintained that the functional need to



Doc # 639732
accommodate three tenants with equal sign bands justified the change, and that the resulting
elevation would remain clean and legible.
A commissioner raised the condition of a CMU split-face block trash corral on the property,
suggesting it be painted or cleaned as part of the project. The applicant agreed this was a
worthwhile improvement and indicated the owner would likely pursue it regardless. It was
agreed that the same EIFS-matching paint color used on the building would be applied to the
trash corral.

Recommendation & Voting

Motion to grant a Certificate of Appropriateness for Case No. 2026-013A at 9719 Skokie
Boulevard as presented, amended to include painting and/or cleaning of the existing trash
corral as part of the project.

2026-014A – 4254 Greenwood Street (Residential)
Applicant: Nathan Kriska
Owner: Amir Malik
Request: 1st & 2nd floor additions

Staff reported that the applicant was proposing a 380 square foot first-floor addition on the
north side containing a kitchen, dining area, and patio, and an 874 square foot second-floor
addition on the west side containing a main bedroom, seating room, and additional bedroom.
The addition would be a combination of brick and siding. Staff noted that the driveway apron
appeared narrower than the driveway, and reminded the applicant that parking is not
permitted within the front yard setback in residential districts. Staff also recommended adding
architectural elements to break up the expansive brick on the side elevation.
Applicant representative Nathan Kriska presented the project. He clarified that the proposed
driveway configuration maintained a minimum of 18 feet behind the front of the house for two
parking spaces, meeting the required setback. He acknowledged the narrower apron and noted
that a tree and prior water main repair work in that area had been factors, but suggested the
apron could potentially be widened.


Doc # 639732
The Commission reviewed the front elevation and AI rendering. Commissioners expressed a
preference for carrying the limestone accent higher on the central entry element, consistent
with what was depicted in the AI rendering. Discussion also arose regarding the kitchen
entrance door on the west-facing façade, which — given its position adjacent to the driveway
— could visually read as a second front door. The Commission suggested softening this through
landscape elements such as low walls or plantings flanking that entry, while a commissioner
recommended against removing the sidelights entirely, as the setback of 18–20 feet would
already diminish the visual prominence of that door. A suggestion was made to have the
pedestrian walkway connect to the village sidewalk rather than running parallel to the
driveway, creating a landscaped strip between them.
The Commission discussed window configurations. The Chair suggested adding transom
windows to the large casement windows on the front elevation to break up their scale,
consistent with what was shown in the AI rendering. The window frame color was discussed;
the owner indicated a preference for a brown or bronze tone rather than black or white, and
the Commission was generally supportive.
With respect to the side (east) elevation, staff's concern about a large expanse of blank
masonry was noted. Commissioner Carlos observed that the neighboring two-story house
would look directly at this blank wall and suggested adding fenestration if the interior program
allowed for it. Kriska confirmed that while the program included closets and bedroom uses in
that area, a window could potentially be added on the second floor of the east elevation. The
Commission noted the observation without making it a hard requirement, acknowledging
interior layout constraints.
The Chair also noted informally that the driveway apron situation may warrant a conversation
with the Village to explore widening options.
Recommendation & Voting
Motion to grant a Certificate of Appropriateness for Case No. 2026-014A at 4254 Greenwood
Street, with the following adjustments: a landscaped area on either side of the kitchen door on
the west elevation; the stone accent carried up to a height consistent with the AI rendering;
windows to include transom elements in a brown or bronze color; and, as an observation, a
window added if possible to the sitting area on the east elevation at the second floor.

2026-015A – 4919 Morse Avenue (Residential)
Applicant: Christopher Goode
Owner: Kate & Scott Gorsky
Request: 1st floor additions

Staff reported that the applicant was proposing a 482 square foot addition connecting the
existing garage to the residence, to include a mudroom, family room, and bathroom. Exterior
materials on the addition would match the existing structure. Staff had no objections to the
proposed elevations.
Owner Kate Gorsky presented the project. She explained that the addition would connect the
detached garage to the house via a passageway and reconfigure the existing flat-roofed
addition with a new pitched roof to match the new construction. She also described plans to
upgrade the existing side porch into a covered, columned entry to more clearly establish it as
the primary entrance, discouraging use of an existing, less prominent front door. A double
garage door opening would be temporarily blown out to allow construction access, and an
appropriate replacement window would be installed in lieu of the existing glass block.
The Commission found the project straightforward and well-designed, with no significant
concerns raised about the proposed construction or materials. Commissioners noted that the
covered columned porch was an attractive and functional means of directing visitors to the
intended entrance, and suggested that removing the walkway leading to the less prominent
existing front door — combined with thoughtful landscaping — would effectively privatize that
area as a front porch.
The Chair took the opportunity to comment on the existing landscaping at the property, noting
that trimming, pruning, and weed removal in the front walkway area would significantly
enhance the appearance of an already charming façade. He also noted what appeared to be a
volunteer mulberry tree in the front yard that might be worth removing, and suggested that
cleaning up the existing stone lantern wall would add to the overall curb appeal. The owner
acknowledged these observations and noted that landscaping improvements were already
planned.

2026-016A – 8224 Karlov Avenue (Residential)
Applicant: Nathan Kriska
Owner: Muhammad Amjad
Request: Teardown and Rebuild
Staff reported that the applicant was proposing to demolish the existing residence at 8224
Karlov Avenue and construct a new 3,635 square foot two-story residence reaching 25 feet in
height, to be constructed entirely of masonry with aluminum panel accents. Staff noted that it
was generally not pleased with the aesthetic design as submitted but deferred all comments
and suggestions to the Appearance Commission.
Applicant representative Nathan Kriska presented the project. He explained that the design had
originally been developed as a flat-roof contemporary structure, but that the flat-roof height
limit of 23 feet could not accommodate the desired floor-to-floor heights. By converting to a
shingled roof, the code allows for a height up to 28 feet, and the applicant was able to
incorporate a distinctive roofline element over the front entry while keeping eave heights at or
below the 23-foot flat-roof limit.
The Commission noted a significant discrepancy between the submitted architectural elevation
drawings and the computer-generated color rendering, particularly with respect to the roof
overhang and panel treatment at the eave line. Kriska confirmed that the color rendering was a
more accurate representation of the intended final product, and that the panel treatment — to
be a cementitious panel system similar to the Swiss Pearl product used in the evening's first
case, rather than thin aluminum — would extend approximately 18 inches below the roofline,
potentially running to the top of the second-floor windows. Commissioners stressed the
importance of using a sufficiently thick, high-quality panel material given the visual prominence
of this element.




Doc # 639732
A significant discussion arose around the second-floor window configuration. The color
rendering depicted four symmetrically arranged windows with consistent transom lines, which
commissioners found visually appealing. However, Kriska explained that the bedrooms on that
level required code-compliant egress windows, meaning sill heights could not replicate the low
profile shown in the rendering. After discussion, a solution was reached: an egress window
would be added to the north elevation for one of the bedrooms, allowing the front-facing
second-floor windows to maintain a configuration consistent with the rendering, with a mid-
height mullion line aligning with the balcony railing on the adjacent door.
Commissioner Carlos raised a concern about the massing and height of the new building
relative to neighboring homes, suggesting a ceiling height reduction — from 10 feet on the first
floor and 9 feet on the second — might better contextualize the structure within the existing
streetscape. Commissioner Julie and the applicant pushed back, noting that the block already
contains predominantly two-story homes with similar roof heights and that a flat-roofed
contemporary design inherently will not match the surrounding architecture regardless of
modest dimensional adjustments. The Chair acknowledged Carlos's concern but expressed
overall comfort with the design, particularly given the applicant's effort to use a pitched roof to
harmonize with the neighborhood context.
The Chair encouraged the owner to invest in substantial landscaping at the front of the
property once construction is complete, noting that the street features mature trees and that
robust plantings would help the new contemporary home integrate into the established
character of the block over time. A commissioner strongly recommended planting native oak
trees consistent with the existing mature tree canopy on the street and cautioned against
ornamental pear trees. The applicant noted that the owner is an avid gardener and expressed
enthusiasm for this recommendation. The Chair also suggested pursuing a parkway tree
through the Village's forestry department.
Recommendation & Voting

Motion to grant a Certificate of Appropriateness for Case No. 2026-016A at 8224 Karlov
Avenue, to be constructed as close to the color rendering as possible, with the addition of one
egress window on the north side bedroom elevation.

From: Angel Schnur, Building & Inspection Services Manager
 Jose Acosta, Planning Coordinator

Date: May 13, 2026

SUBJECT: APPEARANCE COMMISSION STAFF REPORT

Staff offers the following comments on the cases scheduled for the May 13th, 2026, Appearance
Commission meeting:

NEW BUSINESS:

2026-017A 8305 Kildare Avenue (Residential) – The applicant is proposing a 336 square-
 foot second-floor addition above the existing garage, which will be visible from
 Kildare Avenue. The addition will contain two new bedrooms and will feature
 Hardie board siding as the exterior material.

 Staff has reviewed the proposed elevations and has no aesthetic objections. The
 selected exterior materials and finishes will provide a cohesive and updated
 appearance that complements the existing structure.

2026-018A 4918 Coyle Avenue (Residential) – The applicant is proposing updates to the
 front façade of the residential property, which will be visible from Coyle Avenue.
 The proposed improvements include the addition of a covered porch and a
 redesigned front façade.

 Staff notes that the applicant will not be required to request a variance from
 Section 118-59(c) regarding permitted obstructions in front yards at the Zoning
 Board of Appeals. At the May 4 Village Board of Trustees meeting, amendments
 to Section 118-59(c) were approved, reducing the allowable projection of such
 obstructions into the required front yard from 10 feet to 6 feet, which plans




#639706
 show full compliance of. Staff has no additional comments or objections to the
 proposal.

2026-019A 4835 Birchwood Avenue (Residential) – The applicant is proposing a 520 square-
 foot first-floor addition located at the rear of the home. The addition will not be
 visible from the street and will cover existing concrete pads in the rear yard.

 Staff has no objections to the proposal.

2026-020A 8357 Skokie Boulevard (Non-Residential) – At the April 16, 2026 Plan
 Commission meeting, the Commission provided a positive recommendation to
 the Village Board of Trustees for a special use permit to allow a limited-service
 restaurant with a drive-through at 8357 Skokie Boulevard. The next step in the
 public hearing process is review by the Appearance Commission for a Certificate
 of Appropriateness, prior to review by the Village Board of Trustees.

 The currently vacant building, which previously housed a 7-Eleven, is proposed
 to undergo exterior façade alterations for a new Dunkin’ Donuts tenant. Staff has
 no objections to the proposed changes or building design.

2026-021A 4801 Golf Road (Non-Residential) – The applicant is requesting a variance from
 §82-27(c)(2) to permit more than one wall sign on the western façade of 4801
 Golf Road. As part of this request, review by the Appearance Commission is
 required. The subject property is occupied by two tenants, Pure Medical Spa and
 BMO Harris Bank. The western façade currently contains existing wall signage for
 the bank; the applicant proposes to install additional wall signage for Pure
 Medical Spa to improve visibility for eastbound traffic along Golf Road as well as
 within the interior of the site.

 Staff has reviewed the request and has no objections. The proposed variance is
 consistent with a previously approved sign variance for the eastern façade of the
 building.

New Business
2026-17A – 8305 Kildare Avenue (Residential)
Applicant & Owner: Charles Stephen
Request: 2nd floor addition

Staff reported no aesthetic objections to the proposal. The applicant is proposing a 336 square
foot second floor addition above the existing garage, visible from Kildare Avenue, to contain
two new bedrooms. The exterior material will be Hardie Board siding.

Owners Charles Stephen appeared and confirmed they are the property owners. They
explained that the existing home is brick with a limestone front façade, and that because a
limestone match could not be found, they elected to use a neutral, unobtrusive Hardie Board
siding for the addition. A commissioner confirmed that the garage is set back slightly from the
main structure. The Commission noted the addition is above the garage and entirely sided, with
no stone element involved, and found the proposal straightforward. No final color had been
selected, though the owners indicated they intended something neutral such as a cream or
beige.

2026-018A 4918 Coyle Avenue (Residential)
Applicant & Owner: Joseph and Kathryn Dudzik
Request: Façade improvements

Staff reported no objections to the proposal. The applicant is proposing a covered front porch
addition and a redesigned front façade, including a canopy over the front door and a shed-style
awning roof over the bay window. Staff also noted that, due to amendments to Section 100-18-
59C approved by the Village Board of Trustees on May 4, 2026—reducing the allowable
projection of obstructions into required front yards from ten feet to six feet—the applicant will
not be required to seek a variance from the Zoning Board of Appeals, as the plans show full
compliance.

Margaret and Mark Lindsay, parents and step-parents of the absent owners, appeared as
representatives and confirmed familiarity with the project. The Commission confirmed that
roofing shingles will match the existing roof and that the cedar posts and trim will be painted
white to match the existing front door surround. Commissioners expressed approval of the
design, with one noting appreciation for seeing larger front porches approved without the need
for a ZBA variance under the updated ordinance.

2026-019A – 4835 Birchwood Avenue (Residential)
Applicant: Nathan Kriska
Owner: Ela Adrian Asllani
Request: 1st floor Addition

Staff reported no objections to the proposal. The applicant is proposing a 520 square foot first
floor addition at the rear of the home, which will not be visible from the street and will cover
existing concrete pads in the rear yard.

Architect Nathan Kriska presented the project. The rear addition will be clad in vertical Hardie
Board siding in a color described as "urban bronze," a dark gray tone. The existing front siding
will be updated to match the same color as the existing gable end. On the west side elevation,
the applicant indicated a preference for thin brick, similar to a previously approved project in
the area, with the intent to shift the overall color palette of the home toward a richer red tone
to complement the existing pinkish-red brick. All windows are proposed to change from white
to black. A boxed surround treatment is also proposed around the existing living room window
on the front façade to give it a more prominent appearance without physically enlarging it. A
commissioner noted that the roofline of the addition appears higher than the existing, which
the architect explained is geometrically necessary given that the addition's width exceeds the
existing building's depth at the same roof pitch.

2026-020A – 8357 Skokie Boulevard Non-(Residential)
Applicant: Reena Panjwani Khowaja


Doc # 640240
Owner: JAMD Real Estate LLC
Request: façade updates

Staff reported no objections. The proposal involves exterior façade alterations to the currently
vacant former 7-Eleven building at 8357 Skokie Boulevard to accommodate a new
Dunkin'/Baskin-Robbins combo tenant. The project was previously reviewed by the Plan
Commission at its April 16, 2026 meeting, which provided a unanimous positive
recommendation to the Village Board of Trustees for a special use permit to allow a limited
service restaurant with drive-through. Village Board review remains forthcoming.

Applicant Reena Panjwani Khowaja and project architect Nicoletta presented the proposal.
Approximately 500 square feet (roughly 12 feet) will be removed from the southern portion of
the building to accommodate drive-through circulation. The remaining building will be
reskinned and improved to align with current Dunkin' brand standards while working within the
existing structure. Proposed exterior materials include painted brick, fiberboard panels in gray,
white, and a wood accent finish, a painted metal accent band wrapping the building in Dunkin'
orange, and a canopy at the drive-through window. A taller branded "switch" element is
proposed at the roofline to improve visibility and modernize the building's appearance. New
glazing is proposed on the south elevation to bring natural light into the seating area.

Two items of discussion arose. First, a commissioner raised a concern about the proposed wood
fence on the south side of the site, noting that drive-through customers queued on that side
would be looking directly at the adjacent existing wood fence on the east side, and questioned
whether the applicant had considered replacing it for continuity. The applicant acknowledged
the point and committed to evaluating the condition of the existing fence, replacing boards or
the entire fence if warranted. Second, a commissioner advised the applicant's team to
reconsider the proposed Vinca ground cover along the sidewalk, noting it performs poorly in
sunny conditions, becomes patchy, and is difficult to maintain. The applicant agreed to consult
with the landscape architect and substitute a more suitable native or drought-tolerant
alternative
Recommendation & Voting
A motion to grant a Certificate of Appropriateness for Case No. 2026-020A at 8357 Skokie
Boulevard, with the condition that the Vinca ground cover be replaced with a native or more
viable alternative

2026-021A – 4801 Golf Road (Non- Residential)
Applicant: Christopher Goode
Owner: Kate & Scott Gorsky
Request: 1st floor additions

Staff reported no objections to the proposal, noting consistency with a previously approved
sign variance for the eastern façade of the building. The applicant is requesting a variance from
Section 82-27(C)(2) to permit more than one wall sign on the western façade of 4801 Golf Road,
which is occupied by two tenants: Pure Medical Spa and BMO Harris Bank. The western façade
currently carries existing BMO Harris Bank wall signage. The proposed additional sign for Pure
Medical Spa is intended to improve visibility for eastbound Golf Road traffic and for customers
navigating the shared parking lot, as the applicant noted clients were having difficulty locating
the tenant and leaving without entering.

Sign contractor Aslam Shariff presented the proposal, indicating the new sign would match the
size of the existing eastern façade sign but in red acrylic rather than the black and white of the
existing sign, to align visually with neighboring tenants Bob's Discount Furniture and Burlington,
with whom the property shares a parking lot.

The Commission's discussion centered entirely on the proposed color. Commissioner Carlos
expressed a strong preference for black, arguing that the building is architecturally distinctive
and modern in character, with prominent black curtain wall elements, and that a red sign would
diminish its unique identity by visually associating it with the adjacent retail strip. He noted the
incongruity of the proposed use—a medical spa—appearing alongside retail signage colors.
Other commissioners concurred. One commissioner added that, while black better matched the
architecture, if red were ultimately preferred, the applicant should be aware that the existing
BMO Harris sign's orange logo and the proposed red are similar but not identical colors, and
that having two mismatched near-red tones adjacent to one another would appear visually
problematic. The vice chair also cautioned that matching the aged BMO sign color in a new
installation would be practically difficult even with matching Pantone specifications. The
applicant indicated that the owner had been open to the black option and committed to
bringing the Commission's strong recommendation back to the client. The Commission directed
that the motion reflects a recommendation that the sign be black to match the existing eastern
façade signage in color and style.
