 AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 118, ARTICLE III,
 SECTION 118-184(a) OF THE SKOKIE VILLAGE CODE
 PERTAINING TO BUILDING HEIGHT IN THE
 NX NEIGHBORHOOD MIXED-USE DISTRICT

1 WHEREAS, Chapter 118, Article III, Section 118-184(a) of the Skokie Village Code
2 provides for bulk requirements in mixed-use districts; and

3 WHEREAS, the Skokie Plan Commission reviewed possible modifications to Zoning
4 Chapter 118 of the Skokie Village Code regarding maximum building height in the NX
5 Neighborhood Mixed-Use district; and

6 WHEREAS, over a period of time, multiple developers have alerted staff that the current
7 maximum building height of 39 feet (three stories) in the NX district is construed as a potential
8 barrier to the development of mixed-use buildings. The addition of six feet to the maximum
9 building height would allow for a fourth floor and increase the probability that the redevelopment

Plan Commission Council Chambers, 8:00 PM May 22, 2018


To: Mayor and Board of Trustees
From: Paul Luke, Chairman
Case: 2017-52P: Zoning Map Amendment
 9200 Skokie Boulevard

 Related Cases – 2017-53P: Subdivision
 2017-54P: Site Plan Approval
 2017-55P: Special Use Permit
 2017-56P: Parking Determination
 2017-57P: Special Use Permit

PLAN COMMISSION ANALYSIS
At its April 19, 2018 meeting, the Plan Commission heard the request of SCI Illinois
Services, LLC, on behalf of Waterway Gas & Wash Company, as contract purchaser, to
amend the zoning map to change the zoning district for 9200 Skokie Boulevard from B1
Service Commercial to B3 Business. The petitioners desire to rezone the subject site,
which presently contains a vacant funeral home and surface parking lot, to B3 in order
to redevelop the property and construct a 1-lot planned development that includes an
automotive fuel station, convenience store, car wash, surface parking, and storm water
detention (case 2017-54P).
The Plan Commission concurred with Staff’s recommendation to grant the zoning map
amendment. Based on existing land uses and development trends, the proposed B3
zoning is more suitable for the subject site.


INTERESTED PARTIES
Legal notice was properly posted, advertised, and delivered to all property owners in
the area of the subject site as prescribed by the Zoning Chapter. No interested parties
spoke regarding this case.

PLAN COMMISSION RECOMMENDATIONS AND VOTING
The Plan Commission recommends by a vote of 6 ayes and 0 nays, with 3 members
absent, that the petitioners’ request to change the zoning district for 9200 Skokie
Boulevard from B1 Service Commercial to B3 Business be APPROVED, subject to the
attached Proposed Positive Findings of Fact.

PETITIONER’S SUBMITTAL
The petitioners are requesting to amend the zoning map to change the zoning district
for 9200 Skokie Boulevard from B1 Service Commercial to B3 Business. The petitioners
desire to rezone the subject site, which presently contains a vacant funeral home and
surface parking lot, to B3 in order to redevelop the property and construct a 1-lot
planned development that includes an automotive fuel station, convenience store, car
wash, surface parking, and storm water detention (case 2017-54P).

STAFF ANALYSIS
Comments
All pertinent departments and divisions were offered an opportunity to comment on this
case. Other than the Planning Division comments below, all others did not respond or
approved the request without comment.

 Planning Division
 The Planning Division has reviewed the submitted materials and supports the
 proposed zoning map amendment. While convenience stores are a permitted use in
 the B1 Service Commercial district, automotive fuel stations and car washes are not.
 Car washes are also not permitted in the B2 Commercial district, although
 automotive fuel stations are. B3 Business is an appropriate zone for the site, as it is
 designed to accommodate a larger consumer population than that provided for in
 the B1 and B2 districts and fronts Skokie Boulevard (U.S. Route 41), a major arterial
 street. The B3 district is intended for areas that do not directly abut properties in
 the R1, R2, and R3 districts, which is the case in this instance.
 The funeral home that had existed at the site was operating as a legal non-
 conforming use. The business cannot be reopened because funeral homes are
 presently not a permitted use in the B1 district and the funeral home has been
 vacant for a period of 6 months or longer, thus losing its nonconforming status.
 Funeral homes are special uses in the B3 district.
 The proposed zoning map amendment is consistent with the land use designation in
 the Comprehensive Plan because the proposed development is providing both retail
 (automotive fuel station and convenience store) and service (car wash) uses.
 In 1946, the property was divided into 3 separate zoning classifications. The portion
 of the property that existed north and east of 2 now-vacated alleys and abutted
 Skokie Boulevard was zoned A Single Family. The southwest portion of the property
 was zoned D Multiple Dwelling. The western portion of the property, which abutted
 both Church Street and Gross Point Road, was zoned E Commercial. Sometime
 between 1952 and 1956 the entire property was rezoned to B-1 Neighborhood
 Shopping (now B1 Service Commercial). The funeral home began operating at this
 site in 1962 and closed in 2015. The subject site appears to have been undeveloped
 prior to the construction of the funeral home.

 The surrounding uses include a multi-tenant office building, a bank, a mattress
 store, a drug store, dental clinics, a 3- or more unit multifamily residence, a pet
 store, a lawn and garden supplies store, housing for the elderly and disabled, and a
 public recreation facility. The trend in development in the general area over the
 past 25 years has been stable with new commercial at the intersection of Gross
 Point Road and Skokie Boulevard.

STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff recommends that the petitioners’ request to amend the zoning map to change the
zoning district for 9200 Skokie Boulevard from B1 Service Commercial to B3 Business be
GRANTED, subject to the attached Proposed Positive Findings of Fact.

As all 6 cases are related, they were discussed together but separate motions and
votes were taken.

Discussion and Interested Parties

Legal notice was advertised, posted, and delivered to property owners in the area as
prescribed by the Zoning Chapter. It was determined by Corporation Counsel to be
proper and correct.

Michael Goldman, Vice President and General Counsel of Waterway presented the
cases. The company is from St. Louis and has been in existence for 50 years. They
are requesting to change the zoning from B1 to B3, consolidating the odd-shaped
property of 14 lots into 1 lot, and proposing a full service, 6-pump gas station, car
wash tunnel with a separate vacuuming area, and convenience store at a vacant
property that was previously used as a funeral home.

It was noted that the arterial streets Church Street, Gross Point Road, and Skokie
Boulevard are under IDOT’s control and Skokie will just oversee some of the
changes required. The traffic study showed the impact on traffic will be small.
There will be a right-in/right out on Skokie Boulevard as well as only a right out on
Gross Point Road. They assume, by a comparison to their Northbrook location, that
most customers will be driving by anyway. A small percentage will make Waterway
a destination stop.

Mr. Goldman stated that a parking determination was completed requiring 13
parking spaces for the car wash, which have been provided, based on the nearby
Turtle Wax operation.

The petitioner was hopeful that concerns and questions were addressed at a
productive neighbors meeting held earlier. Mr. Goldman reported that studies show
that surrounding property values actually increase when an active business is in the
vicinity. He also met with the property owner of the office building next door when
it was discovered that a small area of her property was included on their landscape
plan. He stated that he would be happy to put in and maintain the new plantings in
that triangular area.

The Plan Commission chairman asked if car detailing would be offered, about the
noise level of the blowers and also wanted clarification that there is no entry to the
site from northbound Skokie Boulevard. Mr. Goldman stated that unlike the
Northbrook location, cars will not be left on site to be picked up later. Access would
be from Gross Point Road and stacking would meander around the gas island to get
to the wash tunnel. Once accustomed to the layout, most customers know exactly

536762
where to go. The blowers are located at the end of the tunnel and face the 7-11
store and not towards residential properties.

A commissioner wanted confirmation that it is a machine wash and not a hand car
wash, inquired about the queuing line, and asked about the hours of operation and
number of employees. The tunnel is 110-112 feet and has space for 6 cars with 2-3
feet in between each but typically 4 cars are in the tunnel at a time. The conveyor
speed can be controlled. Hours of operation would be from 6 AM to 11PM for the
fuel station and from 7AM to 9 PM for the car wash. The number of employees
varies depending on the season and the weather but on a typical day 12 employees
are on hand.

Another commissioner wanted more information on the queuing line. He counted 26
spaces. Mr. Goldman explained that there are 3 lanes leading up to the automated
gates. The customer has the option to choose whether to pay at the gate (ATM
machine) and remain in the vehicle for just an exterior wash & quick towel dry or
the traditional wash exiting the vehicle and going in the convenience store or waiting
area. An employee then drives the car into the tunnel and onto the conveyor. After
the wash the car is taken to the towel dry and vacuum area.

Another commissioner commented that every side has a beautiful finish except the
south elevation that has a plain unattractive wall. The petitioner answered that the
long straight line was the back wall of the tunnel. Staff mentioned that the
Appearance Commission asked for some changes and displayed the revised
elevation showing a row of windows and a wall that was popped-out for relief.
These as well as changes to the materials and signs were approved by the
Appearance Commission. The area will be heavily landscaped.

Another commissioner asked what brand of gas they would be using and about
supplies and fuel truck delivery hours. Mr. Goldman stated that Waterway has its
own private label of fuel. Deliveries would take place in the early morning about 6-7
AM or between 8-10 PM. The convenience store would get its orders in the middle of
the day.

Staff requested that all the reports be accepted into the record as written and noted
additional points. There are 2 requests for dedications: a 5-ft dedication on Gross
Point Road so that the obstructed sidewalk (light poles and fire hydrants) would
become free and clear and also 3-feet on Church Street to make way for a multi-use
path.

Five items of relief were requested as part of the site plan approval: to allow a 2nd
ground sign, to allow a wall sign to face a parking lot, to allow more than 1 sign
facing Gross Point Road as a way-finding sign to customers heading eastbound on
Church Street, to allow more than 1 sign facing Skokie Boulevard to let customers
know they are entering the car wash, and to allow the surface area of a sign to be
20% larger on the east side of the building.

A commissioner wanted verification that a trash control condition was included
536762
stating that if automotive items or packaged/prepared food are sold than the area
will be policed every 4 hours for trash. Staff explained that it is listed in the Village
Code already and Corporation Council was in the process of taking out redundant
language unless it is specifically requested. The Community Development director
interjected that the Village Code explains that a trash receptacle will be placed at the
front door of the convenience store and at each pump island. The commissioner
stated that he will take it up with Corporation Counsel.

The chairman asked if an attendant would be available for assistance if needed. The
petitioner stated that an attendant will be stationed under the canopy for anyone
needing help.

A commissioner asked staff if there was any concern with other gas stations being
so close. Staff answered that they never put restrictions on competition. The
market will dictate who will survive. The Shell station will be closing in the near
future and this one will be replacing it. As far as another car wash, one is having its
own difficulties.

It was mentioned that when the petitioner heard that a bike lane was planned
nearby, as an amenity, a bike fix-it station will be offered at this site. A
commissioner was intrigued and asked for more information. Mr. Goldman stated
that bike fixing tools and pumps will be available for riders to use.

Rita Blinstein, resident at 9242 Gross Point Road, spoke about the non-stop heavy
traffic on Skokie Boulevard, Gross Point Road and Church Street and how emergency
vehicles will be impeded going to the nearby hospital. She was disappointed that no
one was addressing the health issues of living close to a gas station for the elderly
and children. She wanted to know more about the statistic that were referenced
about property values. She doesn’t believe that another gas station/car wash and
convenient store is needed.

The chairman agreed that the area is very busy with traffic but the carbon footprint
will not be impacted any more than right now. The petitioner responded that in the
summertime an additive is mixed in to confine vapors.

Staff mentioned that per IDOT requirements, multiple access points will be
consolidated to only one for traffic safety. There are gas stations on Skokie
Boulevard, Main Street, Oakton Street, and Touhy Avenue that are either abutting or
less than 100 feet from residential properties.

A commissioner added that he was initially concerned but when he examined the
site plan and saw where the gas pumps were located, he was convinced that it
would be OK. They will be a fair distance away.

Ms. Blinstein asked if there are any codes for regulating a safe distance from gas
station equipment. The chairman stated that if it becomes a hazard it will be
reviewed.

536762
Victor Flaks, 9242 Gross Point Road, asked about any protection against the fuel
smells being carried by the wind across the buildings. The chairman replied that the
fumes would probably be dissipated with the winds.

Mr. Goldman reiterated that the traffic study was required by IDOT and showed a
very small impact (2%) on an already busy area. They use new state of the art
pumps with devices on the handles that bring the vapors back into the fuel. The
pumps are double-lined and can detect when there is leakage. Many of the smells
are from older stations that also do car repairs. The smells are usually from other
fluids such like oil; gas does not smell anymore. The Shell station is as close to
residential properties as they will be and there is the office building in between.

The health issue has been studied and results show a limited risk. This is a highly
regulated industry and they can be shut down by the Illinois Environmental
Protection Agency, Weights and Measures, or the Fire Marshall if they miss any of
their checklist items. They are very careful and have even incorporated
environmental training at the own corporate level. The fuel dispensers were
purposely placed far away from the residential buildings.

Mr. Goldman commented that the staff reports were very thorough and they will
comply with all recommended conditions.

PLAN COMMISSION ANALYSIS
During its April 19, 2018, meeting, the Plan Commission heard a request for site plan
approval for a 1-lot planned development in a B3 Business zoning district that includes
an automotive fuel station, convenience store, car wash, surface parking, and storm
water detention, and any relief that may be discovered during the review of this case.
Staff found 5 items of relief that would be needed in order to implement the proposed
signage:
 §82-28(c)(1)b.1. to allow a second ground sign on a site less than 2 acres in area.
 This is needed to allow signage on Gross Point and Skokie Boulevard on this
 triangular lot where there is a separate use north of the site.
 §82-28(b)(1)b. to allow a wall sign facing a parking lot for an occupancy that has
 street frontage to avoid traffic conflicts on this triangular lot and to keep curb cuts
 off Church Street, the front of the building faces northward.
 §82-28(b)(1)a. to allow more than 1 wall sign facing the Gross Point Road street
 frontage to provide wayfinding to customers heading eastbound on Church Street
 and to access the driveway off Gross Point Road.
 §82-28(b)(1)a. to allow more than 1 wall sign facing the Skokie Boulevard street
 frontage to provide confirmation that the customer is entering the carwash.
 §82-28(b)(2) to allow a wall sign surface area to be greater than 20% of the blue
 accent wall to which it is applied on the east side of the building.
No other relief was required.
It was noted that the arterial streets Church Street, Gross Point Road, and Skokie Boulevard
are under IDOT’s control and Skokie will just oversee some of the IDOT changes required,
including driveway channelization, geometrics, traffic study clarifications. The traffic study
showed the impact on traffic will be small. The entrance on Skokie Boulevard will be right-
in/right out, and the access on Gross Point Road will have all access in and only right-out.
After observing their Northbrook location, the petitioner said that most customers will be
driving by anyway with only a small percentage making Waterway a destination stop.

The petitioner also reported that studies show that surrounding property values actually
increase when an active business is in the vicinity.
Most of the discussion was specific to the gas station and car wash special uses in cases
2017-55P and 2017-57P. One Commissioner had concerns about the starkness of the
south elevation facing Church Street, which is the side containing the car wash tunnel.
It was later explained that that side has a large amount of landscaping proposed.
Another Commissioner wanted the standard trash control conditions placed in the
recommended conditions for the convenience store.
The Commission approved all but one of the items of relief, which Staff stated was too
close to other signs and redundant, and concurred with the Staff recommendation to
grant the site plan approval.
Additional analysis about this case and discussion can be found in the attached Staff
Report and meeting minutes.


INTERESTED PARTIES
Legal Notice was properly posted, advertised, and delivered to all property owners in
the area of the subject site as prescribed by the Village Code. The petitioner stated
they met with neighbors in the nearby condominium northwest of Gross Point Road
earlier in the day. They also met with the property owner of the office building next door
when it was discovered that a small area of her property was included on their landscape
plan. He stated that he would be happy to put in and maintain the new plantings in that
triangular area. One resident at the meeting was concerned about increased traffic so
close to the hospital and questioned the property value study mentioned by the petitioner.
The petitioner reiterated that the traffic study required by IDOT showed only a 2% increase
in traffic.


APPEARANCE COMMISSION
At its December 13, 2017, meeting, the Appearance Commission approved the proposal
(case 2017-081A), subject to conditions and as depicted in the landscape plan dated
December 11, 2017, and revised renderings and elevations, dated April 13, 2018.
The Appearance Commission did not approve the “permanent changeable graphic” on
the South Elevation and lowered the height of the blue accent wall on the east
elevation so that it is the same height as the tallest point of the building. All other sign
requests were approved with an endorsement for the relief.


PLAN COMMISSION RECOMMENDATIONS AND VOTING
The Plan Commission recommended, by a vote of 6 ayes, 0 nays, and 3 members
absent, that the petitioner’s request for site plan approval for a 1-lot planned
development at 9208 Skokie Boulevard in a B3 Business zoning district that includes an
automotive fuel station, convenience store, car wash, surface parking, and storm water


VOSDOCS-#537496-v1-Master_Plan_Commission_Report_for_2017-54P__site_plan_approval_for_9208_Skokie_Boulevard.docx

detention zoning district be APPROVED based upon the Plan Commission Positive
Findings of Fact and subject to the recommended conditions listed below.
The Plan Commission further recommended that relief be granted from the following
sections of the Village Code:
 1. §82-28(c)(1)b.1. to allow a second ground sign on a site less than 2 acres in
 area, one on the Gross Point Road side of the lot and on the Skokie
 Boulevard side of the lot.
 2. §82-28(b)(1)b. to allow a wall sign facing a parking lot for an occupancy that
 has street frontage.
 3. §82-28(b)(1)a. to allow more than 1 wall sign facing the Gross Point Road
 street frontage.
 4. §82-28(b)(1)a. to allow more than 1 wall sign facing the Skokie Boulevard
 street frontage.

PETITIONER’S SUBMITTAL
The petitioner is requesting site plan approval for a 1-lot planned development in a B3
Business zoning district that includes an automotive fuel station, convenience store, car
wash, surface parking, and storm water detention, and any relief that may be
discovered during the review of this case.
The petitioner contends in a signed letter from Michael Goldman, Vice-President and
Corporation Counsel of Waterway Gas & Wash Company:
 Waterway Gas & Wash Company ("Waterway") has proposed a full service car wash with
 gasoline and convenience store for 9208 Skokie Boulevard. Waterway is a 45+ year old
 company with 20 locations across 5 separate markets. The first Chicagoland Waterway is
 in the Willow Festival development at 2300 Waukegan Road, Northbrook.
  Character of neighborhood - The proposed use will certainly have a positive impact
 upon the character of the neighborhood. First and foremost, the Waterway
 development will literally bring life to an important business area of Skokie by

VOSDOCS-#537496-v1-Master_Plan_Commission_Report_for_2017-54P__site_plan_approval_for_9208_Skokie_Boulevard.docx
 10 of 25
 replacing a closed business and deteriorating building. Waterway has a multiple
 decade long track record and commitment to being a good neighbor, participating in
 local school and charitable events, sponsoring not for profits, and bringing the
 highest level of service to a community. So our impact on the character of the
 neighborhood will only be positive.
  Surrounding Property Values - Our investment in this area will either have no impact
 or positive impact on property values. Studies have been performed that conclude
 bringing a vital business has the butterfly effect of increased values on neighbors.
  Traffic Conditions - Traffic studies by outside engineers, and our 45+ years of
 business, will tell you that our use will harvest the traffic already in the area. While,
 of course, there will be some destination traffic, it is the customers already driving on
 the streets and living in the surrounding neighborhoods that will make up the bulk of
 our business. There will be marginal impact on surrounding streets.
  Utilities, storm water detention, health, safety, morals, and general welfare - Of
 course, the site will be engineered to meet the highest standards relating to utilities,
 storm water, etc. Regarding health, safety, etc., we pride ourselves on being active
 and positive participants in the lives of the neighborhoods we touch. For example,
 we are a lead sponsor at Northbrook Days, sponsor the Glen brook South
 scoreboard, and host multiple food drives, blood drives, warm clothing drives, school
 supply drives, etc.; all to be a great member of the community. Finally, what we are
 most known for are the friendly smiles, greetings, and service from our employees.
 We will hire great people who will represent Waterway as the best in the business;
 and Skokie as a great community.


STAFF ANALYSIS
All pertinent departments and divisions were offered an opportunity to comment on this
case. The Forestry, Engineering, Environmental Health, and Planning Divisions’ and the
Fire Prevention Bureau’s comments are below, all others did not comment.

 Forestry
 The Forestry Division is requiring an existing tree survey. The Accolade elm along
 the back side of the north parking lot needs to be changed to an upright species
 such as Princeton sentry oak or ginkgo. The current selection will encroach into the
 overhead utility wires.
 Forestry would also like to note that a tree removal permit and bond payment are
 required prior to demo for any site trees greater than 8" or any parkway trees that
 are to be removed. Also, tree protection fencing is required for site trees and
 parkway trees that are to remain in a construction project.


 Engineering Division
 The Engineering Division has reviewed the proposal and comments from the Illinois
 Department of Transportation (IDOT) on this case. The letter from IDOT is
 attached to this report. The petitioner has addressed some, but not all, of the IDOT
 concerns and will need to do so. Skokie Boulevard, Church Street, and Gross Point
 Road are all under IDOT jurisdiction adjacent to this site, and the petitioner must

VOSDOCS-#537496-v1-Master_Plan_Commission_Report_for_2017-54P__site_plan_approval_for_9208_Skokie_Boulevard.docx
 11 of 25
 obtain an IDOT permit prior to any work being performed in the adjacent right-of-
 way.
 Staff is recommending 13 required off-street parking spaces in case 2017-56P for
 the car wash portion of the site. In addition, 2 parking spaces are required for each
 fuel station plus 1 space for tire inflation, 1 parking space for each 300 square feet
 of net floor area for the convenience store, and 1 parking space for each 300 square
 feet of net floor area for office and retail space. In total, 35 vehicle parking spaces
 are required and 35 are provided. In total, 2 bicycle parking spaces are required
 and 2 are provided.
 Generally, bicycle parking is required to be within 40’ of building entrances; the
 petitioner is locating the bike rack adjacent to the proposed shared path on Church
 Street, which will be part of the Church Street bike lanes being installed in 2019.
 The sidewalk on Skokie Boulevard, just north of Church, also needs to be realigned
 in the right-of-way such that it is aligned to the rest of sidewalk on the block to the
 north.
 Engineering would also like to note that for the design phase, the petitioner must
 provide a comprehensive site plan set showing existing and proposed features and
 improvements including but not limited to:
 1. Existing conditions/grades
 2. Proposed grading of property (Spot grades, pavement slopes, TF & FF)
 3. Proposed Site Plan
 4. Stormwater Management Plan
 5. Utility Connection Plan (Sewer & Water Service)
 6. Details and Notes
 Include statement from Professional Engineer:
 To the best of my knowledge, the proposed design work qualifies as best practices for
 surface stormwater for the purpose of minimizing stormwater discharge and providing
 recharge for the ground water. Reasonable provision has been made for overflow of such
 surface waters into public areas and that such surface waters are planned for in
 accordance with generally accepted engineering practices so as to reduce the likelihood
 of damage to adjoining properties because of the implementation of this work.
 A building sewer permit shall only be issued and a sewer connection shall only be
 permitted if it is demonstrated that the downstream sewerage facilities, including
 sewers, pump stations and wastewater treatment facilities, have sufficient reserve
 capacity to adequately and efficiently handle the additional anticipated waste load.


 Environmental Health
 The Environmental Health Division would like to note that the following will be
 required:
 1. A separate janitorial sink must be provided for the disposal of waste water. This
 is required at all food establishments.
 2. If any open foods (including coffee and soda) are served to the public, then
VOSDOCS-#537496-v1-Master_Plan_Commission_Report_for_2017-54P__site_plan_approval_for_9208_Skokie_Boulevard.docx
 12 of 25
 additional Health Code requirements must be met.
 3. If open food is served, a separate 3-compartment sink shall be provided and be
 adequately plumbed (open-site) indirectly to the sewer system.
 4. If open food is served, separate hand washing sinks shall be provided.
 5. Provide complete equipment layout on plans with food surfaces and equipment
 specifications, including the manufacturer’s makes and models.
 6. All food service equipment shall be constructed to conform to National Sanitation
 Foundation (NSF) standards (or equivalent) regarding design, materials, and
 workmanship.
 7. If only prepackaged foods are sold from the cooler and freezer, the 3-
 compartment sink and hand sinks are not required.


 Fire Prevention Bureau
 The Fire Prevention Bureau would like to note that their calculations place this newly
 constructed business occupancy in excess of 8,700 sq. ft. They will require:
 1. A fire alarm.
 2. A direct connect/monitoring of alarm to Skokie dispatch.
 3. An addressable annunciator panel at main entrance.
 4. A Knox box, with functioning keys.
 5. A sprinkler system.
 6. That the Fire Department Connection must be within 100' of a Village fire
 hydrant (a fire engineer will have to calculate the demand to see if the building
 will require a fire pump).
 7. Illuminated exits.
 8. Strobes in the restrooms.
 9. Proper portable extinguishers - mounted.
 10. Proper emergency lighting and lighted exits per code.


 Planning Division
 The Planning Division supports the proposed site plan approval request. The site is
 well designed, with the gas station and car wash adjacent to commercial uses and
 away from the residential uses fronting Gross Point Road. There is ample room for
 site circulation of vehicles and people. Land and facilities will be provided to allow
 for the safe implementation of the Church Street bike route in an area where
 dedicated lanes cannot otherwise be provided.
 The petitioner is providing a bike “fix-it” station with air for bike tires and tools;
 however, Staff would like the bike parking and bike repair station moved to south of
VOSDOCS-#537496-v1-Master_Plan_Commission_Report_for_2017-54P__site_plan_approval_for_9208_Skokie_Boulevard.docx
 13 of 25
 the vehicle entrance to the car wash adjacent to the north-south sidewalk
 perpendicular to the Church Street public sidewalk. This location would be safer for
 those employees or customers of the convenience store since they are more visible
 to car wash vehicles entering the car wash than when those vehicles are exiting the
 car wash.
 With the pending closing of the Shell station at Gross Point Road and Skokie
 Boulevard for redevelopment and the likely closing in the near future of the two gas
 stations on Old Orchard Road near Niles North High School due to intersection
 improvements, the northwest portion of the Village will be left with a significant
 shortage of fuel stations. The proposed gas station partially fills that gap.
 The site will be extensively landscaped.
 As noted in the next section, the Appearance Commission endorsed the proposed
 package, subject to conditions. The petitioner updated elevations after the decision
 of the Appearance Commission. Relief from the following sections of the Village
 Code would be needed in order to implement the proposed signage:
  §82-28(c)(1)b.1. to allow a second ground sign on a site less than 2 acres in
 area. This is needed to allow signage on Gross Point and Skokie Boulevard on
 this triangular lot where there is a separate use north of the site.
  §82-28(b)(1)b. to allow a wall sign facing a parking lot for an occupancy that has
 street frontage to avoid traffic conflicts on this triangular lot and to keep curb
 cuts off Church Street, the front of the building faces northward.
  §82-28(b)(1)a. to allow more than 1 wall sign facing the Gross Point Road street
 frontage to provide wayfinding to customers heading eastbound on Church
 Street and to access the driveway off Gross Point Road.
  §82-28(b)(1)a. to allow more than 1 wall sign facing the Skokie Boulevard street
 frontage to provide confirmation that the customer is entering the carwash.
  §82-28(b)(2) to allow a wall sign surface area to be greater than 20% of the
 blue accent wall to which it is applied on the east side of the building.
 Staff is generally supportive of the relief, but upon review of the revised renderings,
 Staff is not supportive of the relief from §82-28(b)(2) and is recommending revisions
 to the signage on the blue accent wall on the east side of the building, thereby
 simplifying the sign communications, reducing the total sign area, and eliminating
 redundant signage in close proximity and therefore unnecessary: (1) provide only
 circle logos on the blue feature wall on the east side of the building; and (2) provide
 only the Waterway lettering on the brick wall just north of the blue feature wall.
 It is also noted that off-site landscaping was included on the landscaping plan,
 which must be removed from that plan. The applicant may discuss these plantings

APPEARANCE COMMISSION
At its December 13, 2017, meeting, the Appearance Commission approved the proposal
(case 2017-081A), subject to conditions and as depicted in the landscape plan dated
December 11, 2017, and revised renderings and elevations, dated April 13, 2018.
The Appearance Commission did not approve the “permanent changeable graphic” on
the South Elevation and lowered the height of the blue accent wall on the east
elevation so that it is the same height as the tallest point of the building.

STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff recommends that the petitioner’s request for a 1-lot planned development at 9208
Skokie Boulevard in a B3 Business zoning district that includes an automotive fuel
station, convenience store, car wash, surface parking, and storm water detention be
APPROVED based upon the Proposed Positive Findings of Fact and subject to the
recommended site plan approval conditions listed below.
Staff further recommends that relief be granted from the following sections of the
Skokie Village Code:
  §82-28(c)(1)b.1. to allow a second ground sign on a site less than 2 acres in
 area, one on the Gross Point Road side of the lot and on the Skokie Boulevard
 side of the lot.
  §82-28(b)(1)b. to allow a wall sign facing a parking lot for an occupancy that has
 street frontage.
  §82-28(b)(1)a. to allow more than 1 wall sign facing the Gross Point Road street

As all 6 cases are related, they were discussed together but separate motions and votes
were taken.

Discussion and Interested Parties

Legal notice was advertised, posted, and delivered to property owners in the area as
prescribed by the Zoning Chapter. It was determined by Corporation Counsel to be proper
and correct.

Michael Goldman, Vice President and General Counsel of Waterway presented the cases.
The company is from St. Louis and has been in existence for 50 years. They are requesting
to change the zoning from B1 to B3, consolidating the odd-shaped property of 14 lots into 1
lot, and proposing a full service, 6-pump gas station, car wash tunnel with a separate
vacuuming area, and convenience store at a vacant property that was previously used as a
funeral home.

It was noted that the arterial streets Church Street, Gross Point Road, and Skokie Boulevard
are under IDOT’s control and Skokie will just oversee some of the changes required. The
traffic study showed the impact on traffic will be small. There will be a right-in/right out on
Skokie Boulevard as well as only a right out on Gross Point Road. They assume, by a
comparison to their Northbrook location, that most customers will be driving by anyway. A
small percentage will make Waterway a destination stop.

Mr. Goldman stated that a parking determination was completed requiring 13 parking
spaces for the car wash, which have been provided, based on the nearby Turtle Wax
operation.

The petitioner was hopeful that concerns and questions were addressed at a productive
neighbors meeting held earlier. Mr. Goldman reported that studies show that surrounding
property values actually increase when an active business is in the vicinity. He also met
with the property owner of the office building next door when it was discovered that a small
area of her property was included on their landscape plan. He stated that he would be
happy to put in and maintain the new plantings in that triangular area.

The Plan Commission chairman asked if car detailing would be offered, about the noise
level of the blowers and also wanted clarification that there is no entry to the site from
northbound Skokie Boulevard. Mr. Goldman stated that unlike the Northbrook location,
cars will not be left on site to be picked up later. Access would be from Gross Point Road
and stacking would meander around the gas island to get to the wash tunnel. Once
accustomed to the layout, most customers know exactly where to go. The blowers are
located at the end of the tunnel and face the 7-11 store and not towards residential
properties.

A commissioner wanted confirmation that it is a machine wash and not a hand car wash,
inquired about the queuing line, and asked about the hours of operation and number of

VOSDOCS-#537496-v1-Master_Plan_Commission_Report_for_2017-54P__site_plan_approval_for_9208_Skokie_Boulevard.docx
 21 of 25
employees. The tunnel is 110-112 feet and has space for 6 cars with 2-3 feet in between
each but typically 4 cars are in the tunnel at a time. The conveyor speed can be controlled.
Hours of operation would be from 6 AM to 11PM for the fuel station and from 7AM to 9 PM
for the car wash. The number of employees varies depending on the season and the
weather but on a typical day 12 employees are on hand.

Another commissioner wanted more information on the queuing line. He counted 26
spaces. Mr. Goldman explained that there are 3 lanes leading up to the automated gates.
The customer has the option to choose whether to pay at the gate (ATM machine) and
remain in the vehicle for just an exterior wash & quick towel dry or the traditional wash
exiting the vehicle and going in the convenience store or waiting area. An employee then
drives the car into the tunnel and onto the conveyor. After the wash the car is taken to the
towel dry and vacuum area.

Another commissioner commented that every side has a beautiful finish except the south
elevation that has a plain unattractive wall. The petitioner answered that the long straight
line was the back wall of the tunnel. Staff mentioned that the Appearance Commission
asked for some changes and displayed the revised elevation showing a row of windows and
a wall that was popped-out for relief.
These as well as changes to the materials and signs were approved by the Appearance
Commission. The area will be heavily landscaped.

Another commissioner asked what brand of gas they would be using and about supplies
and fuel truck delivery hours. Mr. Goldman stated that Waterway has its own private label
of fuel. Deliveries would take place in the early morning about 6-7 AM or between 8-10
PM. The convenience store would get its orders in the middle of the day.

Staff requested that all the reports be accepted into the record as written and noted
additional points. There are 2 requests for dedications: a 5-ft dedication on Gross Point
Road so that the obstructed sidewalk (light poles and fire hydrants) would become free and
clear and also 3-feet on Church Street to make way for a multi-use path.

Five items of relief were requested as part of the site plan approval: to allow a 2nd ground
sign, to allow a wall sign to face a parking lot, to allow more than 1 sign facing Gross Point
Road as a way-finding sign to customers heading eastbound on Church Street, to allow
more than 1 sign facing Skokie Boulevard to let customers know they are entering the car
wash, and to allow the surface area of a sign to be 20% larger on the east side of the
building.

A commissioner wanted verification that a trash control condition was included
stating that if automotive items or packaged/prepared food are sold than the area will be
policed every 4 hours for trash. Staff explained that it is listed in the Village Code already
and Corporation Council was in the process of taking out redundant language unless it is
specifically requested. The Community Development director interjected that the Village
Code explains that a trash receptacle will be placed at the front door of the convenience
store and at each pump island. The commissioner stated that he will take it up with
Corporation Counsel.

The chairman asked if an attendant would be available for assistance if needed. The
petitioner stated that an attendant will be stationed under the canopy for anyone needing
help.

A commissioner asked staff if there was any concern with other gas stations being so close.
Staff answered that they never put restrictions on competition. The market will dictate who
will survive. The Shell station will be closing in the near future and this one will be
replacing it. As far as another car wash, one is having its own difficulties.

It was mentioned that when the petitioner heard that a bike lane was planned nearby, as
an amenity, a bike fix-it station will be offered at this site. A commissioner was intrigued
and asked for more information. Mr. Goldman stated that bike fixing tools and pumps will
be available for riders to use.

Rita Blinstein, resident at 9242 Gross Point Road, spoke about the non-stop heavy traffic on
Skokie Boulevard, Gross Point Road and Church Street and how emergency vehicles will be
impeded going to the nearby hospital. She was disappointed that no one was addressing
the health issues of living close to a gas station for the elderly and children. She wanted to
know more about the statistic that were referenced about property values. She doesn’t
believe that another gas station/car wash and convenient store is needed.

The chairman agreed that the area is very busy with traffic but the carbon footprint will not
be impacted any more than right now. The petitioner responded that in the summertime
an additive is mixed in to confine vapors.

Staff mentioned that per IDOT requirements, multiple access points will be consolidated to
only one for traffic safety. There are gas stations on Skokie Boulevard, Main Street, Oakton
Street, and Touhy Avenue that are either abutting or less than 100 feet from residential
properties.

A commissioner added that he was initially concerned but when he examined the site plan
and saw where the gas pumps were located, he was convinced that it would be OK. They
will be a fair distance away.

Ms. Blinstein asked if there are any codes for regulating a safe distance from gas station
equipment. The chairman stated that if it becomes a hazard it will be reviewed.

Victor Flaks, 9242 Gross Point Road, asked about any protection against the fuel smells
being carried by the wind across the buildings. The chairman replied that the fumes would
probably be dissipated with the winds.

Mr. Goldman reiterated that the traffic study was required by IDOT and showed a very
small impact (2%) on an already busy area. They use new state of the art pumps with
devices on the handles that bring the vapors back into the fuel. The pumps are double-
lined and can detect when there is leakage. Many of the smells are from older stations that
also do car repairs. The smells are usually from other fluids such like oil; gas does not
smell anymore. The Shell station is as close to residential properties as they will be and
there is the office building in between.

The health issue has been studied and results show a limited risk. This is a highly
regulated industry and they can be shut down by the Illinois Environmental Protection
Agency, Weights and Measures, or the Fire Marshall if they miss any of their checklist
items. They are very careful and have even incorporated environmental training at the own
corporate level. The fuel dispensers were purposely placed far away from the residential
buildings.

Mr. Goldman commented that the staff reports were very thorough and they will comply
with all recommended conditions.

PLAN COMMISSION ANALYSIS
The case was heard at the April 19, 2018, Plan Commission meeting and involves a
request for a special use permit for an automotive fuel station in a B3 Business district.
A special use permit is required due to the potential impact an automotive fuel station
may have on the surrounding area.
A 6-pump gas station, with a convenience store and car wash, is proposed for a vacant
property that was previously used as a funeral home.
The adjacent arterial streets (Church Street, Gross Point Road, and Skokie Boulevard) are
under IDOT’s jurisdiction. The traffic study showed the impact on traffic will be small.
Most customers are expected to be driving by, with a small percentage making Waterway a
destination stop.
The petitioner held a neighborhood meeting and an office building owner meeting prior to
the Plan Commission meeting.
The anticipated fuel station hours of operation are 6:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. Waterway will
be selling its own private label fuel, with deliveries taking place from 6:00 to 7:00 a.m., or
8:00 to 10:00 p.m. An attendant will be stationed under the canopy for anyone needing
assistance.
A trash receptacle will be placed at each pump island.
There is no concern regarding the proximity of other nearby gas stations, as restrictions are
not put on business competition. The Shell station to the north will be closing in the near
future and this one will essentially replace it.
The Plan Commission concurred with staff’s recommendation to grant the special use
permit.

INTERESTED PARTIES
Legal notice was advertised, posted, and delivered to property owners in the area as
prescribed by the Zoning Chapter. It was determined by the Corporation Counsel to be
proper and correct.
A nearby resident expressed concern regarding the potential health issues of living close to
a gas station, wanted to know more about the property value statistic, and stated that she
didn’t believe that another gas station/car wash and convenient store is needed.
The petitioner stated that the health issue has been studied and results show a limited risk.
This is a highly regulated industry and they can be shut down by the Illinois Environmental
Protection Agency, Weights and Measures, or the Fire Marshall if they miss any of their
checklist items. Waterway is very careful and has even incorporated environmental training
at the corporate level. The fuel dispensers were purposely placed far away from the
residential buildings.
There are gas stations on Skokie Boulevard, Main Street, Oakton Street, and Touhy Avenue
that are either abutting or less than 100 feet from residential properties.
The traffic study for the development proposal was required by IDOT and showed a very
small impact (2%) on an already busy area. Also, per IDOT requirements, multiple access
points will be consolidated for traffic safety.
Another resident asked if there are any codes for regulating a safe distance from gas
station equipment. The chairman stated that if it becomes a hazard it will be reviewed.
A third resident asked about protection against the fuel smells being carried by the wind
across the buildings. The chairman replied that the fumes would probably be dissipated
with the winds.

As all 6 cases are related, they were discussed together but separate motions and
votes were taken.

Discussion and Interested Parties

Legal notice was advertised, posted, and delivered to property owners in the area as
prescribed by the Zoning Chapter. It was determined by Corporation Counsel to be
proper and correct.

Michael Goldman, Vice President and General Counsel of Waterway presented the
cases. The company is from St. Louis and has been in existence for 50 years. They
are requesting to change the zoning from B1 to B3, consolidating the odd-shaped
property of 14 lots into 1 lot, and proposing a full service, 6-pump gas station, car
wash tunnel with a separate vacuuming area, and convenience store at a vacant
property that was previously used as a funeral home.

It was noted that the arterial streets Church Street, Gross Point Road, and Skokie
Boulevard are under IDOT’s control and Skokie will just oversee some of the
changes required. The traffic study showed the impact on traffic will be small.
There will be a right-in/right out on Skokie Boulevard as well as only a right out on
Gross Point Road. They assume, by a comparison to their Northbrook location, that
most customers will be driving by anyway. A small percentage will make Waterway
a destination stop.

Mr. Goldman stated that a parking determination was completed requiring 13
parking spaces for the car wash, which have been provided, based on the nearby
Turtle Wax operation.

The petitioner was hopeful that concerns and questions were addressed at a
productive neighbors meeting held earlier. Mr. Goldman reported that studies show
that surrounding property values actually increase when an active business is in the
vicinity. He also met with the property owner of the office building next door when
it was discovered that a small area of her property was included on their landscape
plan. He stated that he would be happy to put in and maintain the new plantings in
that triangular area.

The Plan Commission chairman asked if car detailing would be offered, about the
noise level of the blowers and also wanted clarification that there is no entry to the
site from northbound Skokie Boulevard. Mr. Goldman stated that unlike the
Northbrook location, cars will not be left on site to be picked up later. Access would
be from Gross Point Road and stacking would meander around the gas island to get
to the wash tunnel. Once accustomed to the layout, most customers know exactly

536762
where to go. The blowers are located at the end of the tunnel and face the 7-11
store and not towards residential properties.

A commissioner wanted confirmation that it is a machine wash and not a hand car
wash, inquired about the queuing line, and asked about the hours of operation and
number of employees. The tunnel is 110-112 feet and has space for 6 cars with 2-3
feet in between each but typically 4 cars are in the tunnel at a time. The conveyor
speed can be controlled. Hours of operation would be from 6 AM to 11PM for the
fuel station and from 7AM to 9 PM for the car wash. The number of employees
varies depending on the season and the weather but on a typical day 12 employees
are on hand.

Another commissioner wanted more information on the queuing line. He counted 26
spaces. Mr. Goldman explained that there are 3 lanes leading up to the automated
gates. The customer has the option to choose whether to pay at the gate (ATM
machine) and remain in the vehicle for just an exterior wash & quick towel dry or
the traditional wash exiting the vehicle and going in the convenience store or waiting
area. An employee then drives the car into the tunnel and onto the conveyor. After
the wash the car is taken to the towel dry and vacuum area.

Another commissioner commented that every side has a beautiful finish except the
south elevation that has a plain unattractive wall. The petitioner answered that the
long straight line was the back wall of the tunnel. Staff mentioned that the
Appearance Commission asked for some changes and displayed the revised
elevation showing a row of windows and a wall that was popped-out for relief.
These as well as changes to the materials and signs were approved by the
Appearance Commission. The area will be heavily landscaped.

Another commissioner asked what brand of gas they would be using and about
supplies and fuel truck delivery hours. Mr. Goldman stated that Waterway has its
own private label of fuel. Deliveries would take place in the early morning about 6-7
AM or between 8-10 PM. The convenience store would get its orders in the middle of
the day.

Staff requested that all the reports be accepted into the record as written and noted
additional points. There are 2 requests for dedications: a 5-ft dedication on Gross
Point Road so that the obstructed sidewalk (light poles and fire hydrants) would
become free and clear and also 3-feet on Church Street to make way for a multi-use
path.

Five items of relief were requested as part of the site plan approval: to allow a 2nd
ground sign, to allow a wall sign to face a parking lot, to allow more than 1 sign
facing Gross Point Road as a way-finding sign to customers heading eastbound on
Church Street, to allow more than 1 sign facing Skokie Boulevard to let customers
know they are entering the car wash, and to allow the surface area of a sign to be
20% larger on the east side of the building.

A commissioner wanted verification that a trash control condition was included
536762
stating that if automotive items or packaged/prepared food are sold than the area
will be policed every 4 hours for trash. Staff explained that it is listed in the Village
Code already and Corporation Council was in the process of taking out redundant
language unless it is specifically requested. The Community Development director
interjected that the Village Code explains that a trash receptacle will be placed at the
front door of the convenience store and at each pump island. The commissioner
stated that he will take it up with Corporation Counsel.

The chairman asked if an attendant would be available for assistance if needed. The
petitioner stated that an attendant will be stationed under the canopy for anyone
needing help.

A commissioner asked staff if there was any concern with other gas stations being
so close. Staff answered that they never put restrictions on competition. The
market will dictate who will survive. The Shell station will be closing in the near
future and this one will be replacing it. As far as another car wash, one is having its
own difficulties.

It was mentioned that when the petitioner heard that a bike lane was planned
nearby, as an amenity, a bike fix-it station will be offered at this site. A
commissioner was intrigued and asked for more information. Mr. Goldman stated
that bike fixing tools and pumps will be available for riders to use.

Rita Blinstein, resident at 9242 Gross Point Road, spoke about the non-stop heavy
traffic on Skokie Boulevard, Gross Point Road and Church Street and how emergency
vehicles will be impeded going to the nearby hospital. She was disappointed that no
one was addressing the health issues of living close to a gas station for the elderly
and children. She wanted to know more about the statistic that were referenced
about property values. She doesn’t believe that another gas station/car wash and
convenient store is needed.

The chairman agreed that the area is very busy with traffic but the carbon footprint
will not be impacted any more than right now. The petitioner responded that in the
summertime an additive is mixed in to confine vapors.

Staff mentioned that per IDOT requirements, multiple access points will be
consolidated to only one for traffic safety. There are gas stations on Skokie
Boulevard, Main Street, Oakton Street, and Touhy Avenue that are either abutting or
less than 100 feet from residential properties.

A commissioner added that he was initially concerned but when he examined the
site plan and saw where the gas pumps were located, he was convinced that it
would be OK. They will be a fair distance away.

Ms. Blinstein asked if there are any codes for regulating a safe distance from gas
station equipment. The chairman stated that if it becomes a hazard it will be
reviewed.

536762
Victor Flaks, 9242 Gross Point Road, asked about any protection against the fuel
smells being carried by the wind across the buildings. The chairman replied that the
fumes would probably be dissipated with the winds.

Mr. Goldman reiterated that the traffic study was required by IDOT and showed a
very small impact (2%) on an already busy area. They use new state of the art
pumps with devices on the handles that bring the vapors back into the fuel. The
pumps are double-lined and can detect when there is leakage. Many of the smells
are from older stations that also do car repairs. The smells are usually from other
fluids such like oil; gas does not smell anymore. The Shell station is as close to
residential properties as they will be and there is the office building in between.

The health issue has been studied and results show a limited risk. This is a highly
regulated industry and they can be shut down by the Illinois Environmental
Protection Agency, Weights and Measures, or the Fire Marshall if they miss any of
their checklist items. They are very careful and have even incorporated
environmental training at the own corporate level. The fuel dispensers were
purposely placed far away from the residential buildings.

Mr. Goldman commented that the staff reports were very thorough and they will
comply with all recommended conditions.

SITE INFORMATION




See case 2017-54P for site and Complete Streets information.


PETITIONER’S SUBMITTAL
 Waterway Gas & Wash Company ("Waterway") has proposed a full service car wash with
 gasoline and convenience store for 9208 Skokie Boulevard. Waterway is a 45+ year old
 company with 20 locations across 5 separate markets. The first Chicagoland Waterway is in
 the Willow Festival development at 2300 Waukegan Road, Northbrook.
  Character of neighborhood - The proposed use will certainly have a positive impact upon
 the character of the neighborhood. First and foremost, the Waterway development will
 literally bring life to an important business area of Skokie by replacing a closed business
 and deteriorating building. Waterway has a multiple decade long track record and
 commitment to being a good neighbor, participating in local school and charitable events,
 sponsoring not for profits, and bringing the highest level of service to a community. So
 our impact on the character of the neighborhood will only be positive.
  Surrounding Property Values - Our investment in this area will either have no impact or
 positive impact on property values. Studies have been performed that conclude bringing
 a vital business has the butterfly effect of increased values on neighbors.
  Traffic Conditions - Traffic studies by outside engineers, and our 45+ years of business,
 will tell you that our use will harvest the traffic already in the area. While, of course,
 there will be some destination traffic, it is the customers already driving on the streets
 and living in the surrounding neighborhoods that will make up the bulk of our business.
 There will be marginal impact on surrounding streets.
  Utilities, storm water detention, health, safety, morals, and general welfare - Of course,
 the site will be engineered to meet the highest standards relating to utilities, storm
 water, etc. Regarding health, safety, etc., we pride ourselves on being active and
 positive participants in the lives of the neighborhoods we touch. For example, we are a
 lead sponsor at Northbrook Days, sponsor the Glen brook South scoreboard, and host
 multiple food drives, blood drives, warm clothing drives, school supply drives, etc.; all to
 be a great member of the community. Finally, what we are most known for are the
 friendly smiles, greetings, and service from our employees. We will hire great people
 who will represent Waterway as the best in the business; and Skokie as a great
 community.



STAFF ANALYSIS
Staff Comment and Review requests were sent to all pertinent departments and were
received from Fire, Environmental Health, Engineering, and Planning. All other
departments returned the requests with no comments regarding the subject case.
Comments related to the overall development are included in site plan approval case
2017-54P, and comments that specifically impact this automotive fuel station case
include:



 VOSDOCS-#536341-v1-Staff_Report_-_2017-55P_-_Special_Use_Permit_-_9208_Skokie_Boulevard
 2 of 5
 Engineering
 Provide a lighting plan in accordance with IES and Section 118-212(k) lighting.


 Planning
 Automotive fuel stations are allowed with a special use permit in the B3 Business
 district. The zoning map amendment from B1 Service Commercial to B3 Business
 was addressed in case 2017-52P.
 An area on the site must be reserved for tire inflation and the tire inflation dispenser
 location must be shown on the plan.
 The bicycle parking for the automotive fuel station will be included in the bicycle
 parking requirements for the overall development, which is 5% of the required
 number of motor vehicle parking spaces.
 Per the traffic impact study, it is anticipated that the car wash has the capacity to
 efficiently move vehicles through the wash tunnel and not create a traffic back-up
 into the fuel station area to the north. Per the Engineering Division, there is
 adequate parking for the proposed uses, and per the traffic impact study, there is
 ample access to the fuel pumps.


APPEARANCE COMMISSION
At its December 13, 2017, meeting, the Appearance Commission approved the
proposed development, (case 2017-081A), subject to conditions.


STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff recommends that the petitioner’s request for a special use permit for an
automotive fuel station at 9208 Skokie Boulevard in a B3 Business district be
APPROVED, based upon the Proposed Positive Findings of Fact and subject to the
recommended site plan approval conditions in case 2017-54P, and the conditions
below. Relief for the second ground sign, displaying fuel pricing, has been addressed in
site plan approval case 2017-54P.


RECOMMENDED SPECIAL USE PERMIT CONDITIONS
In addition to the conditions of case 2017-54P, the following conditions shall apply to

 2017-57P: Special Use Permit – car wash

PLAN COMMISSION ANALYSIS
The case was heard at the April 19, 2018, Plan Commission meeting and involves a
request for a special use permit for a car wash in a B3 Business district. A special use
permit is required due to the potential impact a car wash may have on the surrounding
area.
A parking determination related to the car wash was required, due to a variety of car
wash operations, ranging from automated to hand washing. The Plan Commission
concurred with the Engineering Division that 13 parking spaces related to the car wash
are required, as determined in case 2017-56P.
A car wash, with an automotive fuel station and a convenience store, is proposed for a
vacant property that was previously used as a funeral home.
The adjacent arterial streets (Church Street, Gross Point Road, and Skokie Boulevard) are
under IDOT’s jurisdiction. The traffic study showed the impact on traffic will be small.
Most customers are expected to be driving by, with a small percentage making Waterway a
destination stop.
The car wash entry is on the east side of the building, and stacking goes around the gas
island to get to the wash tunnel entrance. Once accustomed to the layout, most customers
will know where to go. The drying blowers are located at the west end of the tunnel and
face the 7-11 store and not towards residential properties. In the past, Skokie conducted a
car wash noise study, and the noise of the blowers is lost in the background traffic noise.
Car detailing will not be offered at this location, so cars will not be left on-site to be picked
up later.
The proposed use is a machine wash and not a hand car wash, with typically 4 cars in the
tunnel at one time. The conveyor speed can be controlled. Hours of operation would be
from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. for the car wash. The number of employees varies depending
on the season and the weather.
There are up to 26 spaces available in the car wash queue, with 14 vehicles stacking prior
to the car wash without obstructing the on-site circulation. During peak hours of operation,
VOSDOCS-#537423-v2-Master_Plan_Commission_Report_for_2017-57P_-_SUP_car_wash_-_9208_Skokie 1
the Northbrook location typically has a maximum of 10 cars in its queue. The customer has
the option to choose whether to pay at the gate (ATM machine) and remain in the vehicle
for just an exterior wash and quick towel dry, or the traditional wash exiting the vehicle and
going in the convenience store or waiting area. An employee then drives the car into the
tunnel and onto the conveyor. After the wash, the car is taken to the towel dry and
vacuum area.
A parking determination is required for the use. The parking requirement for the car
wash is based on 1 parking space for each 1.5 peak shift employees. The parking
requirement is met.


INTERESTED PARTIES
Legal notice was advertised, posted, and delivered to property owners in the area as
prescribed by the Zoning Chapter. It was determined by the Corporation Counsel to be
proper and correct.
A nearby resident didn’t believe that another gas station, car wash, and convenience store
development is needed.
This resident and 2 other residents expressed concerns regarding other non-car wash uses
within the development.
The traffic study for this development showed a small impact (2%) on an already busy
area.


APPEARANCE COMMISSION
At its December 13, 2017, meeting, the Appearance Commission approved the
proposed development, (case 2017-081A), subject to conditions.


PLAN COMMISSION RECOMMENDATIONS AND VOTING
The Plan Commission recommended, by a vote of 6 ayes, 0 nays, and 3 absent, that
the petitioner’s request for a special use permit for a car wash in a B3 Business district
at 9208 Skokie Boulevard be APPROVED, subject to the Plan Commission

As all 6 cases are related, they were discussed together but separate motions and
votes were taken.

Discussion and Interested Parties

Legal notice was advertised, posted, and delivered to property owners in the area as
prescribed by the Zoning Chapter. It was determined by Corporation Counsel to be
proper and correct.

Michael Goldman, Vice President and General Counsel of Waterway presented the
cases. The company is from St. Louis and has been in existence for 50 years. They
are requesting to change the zoning from B1 to B3, consolidating the odd-shaped
property of 14 lots into 1 lot, and proposing a full service, 6-pump gas station, car
wash tunnel with a separate vacuuming area, and convenience store at a vacant
property that was previously used as a funeral home.

It was noted that the arterial streets Church Street, Gross Point Road, and Skokie
Boulevard are under IDOT’s control and Skokie will just oversee some of the
changes required. The traffic study showed the impact on traffic will be small.
There will be a right-in/right out on Skokie Boulevard as well as only a right out on
Gross Point Road. They assume, by a comparison to their Northbrook location, that
most customers will be driving by anyway. A small percentage will make Waterway
a destination stop.

Mr. Goldman stated that a parking determination was completed requiring 13
parking spaces for the car wash, which have been provided, based on the nearby
Turtle Wax operation.

The petitioner was hopeful that concerns and questions were addressed at a
productive neighbors meeting held earlier. Mr. Goldman reported that studies show
that surrounding property values actually increase when an active business is in the
vicinity. He also met with the property owner of the office building next door when
it was discovered that a small area of her property was included on their landscape
plan. He stated that he would be happy to put in and maintain the new plantings in
that triangular area.

The Plan Commission chairman asked if car detailing would be offered, about the
noise level of the blowers and also wanted clarification that there is no entry to the
site from northbound Skokie Boulevard. Mr. Goldman stated that unlike the
Northbrook location, cars will not be left on site to be picked up later. Access would
be from Gross Point Road and stacking would meander around the gas island to get
to the wash tunnel. Once accustomed to the layout, most customers know exactly

536762
where to go. The blowers are located at the end of the tunnel and face the 7-11
store and not towards residential properties.

A commissioner wanted confirmation that it is a machine wash and not a hand car
wash, inquired about the queuing line, and asked about the hours of operation and
number of employees. The tunnel is 110-112 feet and has space for 6 cars with 2-3
feet in between each but typically 4 cars are in the tunnel at a time. The conveyor
speed can be controlled. Hours of operation would be from 6 AM to 11PM for the
fuel station and from 7AM to 9 PM for the car wash. The number of employees
varies depending on the season and the weather but on a typical day 12 employees
are on hand.

Another commissioner wanted more information on the queuing line. He counted 26
spaces. Mr. Goldman explained that there are 3 lanes leading up to the automated
gates. The customer has the option to choose whether to pay at the gate (ATM
machine) and remain in the vehicle for just an exterior wash & quick towel dry or
the traditional wash exiting the vehicle and going in the convenience store or waiting
area. An employee then drives the car into the tunnel and onto the conveyor. After
the wash the car is taken to the towel dry and vacuum area.

Another commissioner commented that every side has a beautiful finish except the
south elevation that has a plain unattractive wall. The petitioner answered that the
long straight line was the back wall of the tunnel. Staff mentioned that the
Appearance Commission asked for some changes and displayed the revised
elevation showing a row of windows and a wall that was popped-out for relief.
These as well as changes to the materials and signs were approved by the
Appearance Commission. The area will be heavily landscaped.

Another commissioner asked what brand of gas they would be using and about
supplies and fuel truck delivery hours. Mr. Goldman stated that Waterway has its
own private label of fuel. Deliveries would take place in the early morning about 6-7
AM or between 8-10 PM. The convenience store would get its orders in the middle of
the day.

Staff requested that all the reports be accepted into the record as written and noted
additional points. There are 2 requests for dedications: a 5-ft dedication on Gross
Point Road so that the obstructed sidewalk (light poles and fire hydrants) would
become free and clear and also 3-feet on Church Street to make way for a multi-use
path.

Five items of relief were requested as part of the site plan approval: to allow a 2nd
ground sign, to allow a wall sign to face a parking lot, to allow more than 1 sign
facing Gross Point Road as a way-finding sign to customers heading eastbound on
Church Street, to allow more than 1 sign facing Skokie Boulevard to let customers
know they are entering the car wash, and to allow the surface area of a sign to be
20% larger on the east side of the building.

A commissioner wanted verification that a trash control condition was included
536762
stating that if automotive items or packaged/prepared food are sold than the area
will be policed every 4 hours for trash. Staff explained that it is listed in the Village
Code already and Corporation Council was in the process of taking out redundant
language unless it is specifically requested. The Community Development director
interjected that the Village Code explains that a trash receptacle will be placed at the
front door of the convenience store and at each pump island. The commissioner
stated that he will take it up with Corporation Counsel.

The chairman asked if an attendant would be available for assistance if needed. The
petitioner stated that an attendant will be stationed under the canopy for anyone
needing help.

A commissioner asked staff if there was any concern with other gas stations being
so close. Staff answered that they never put restrictions on competition. The
market will dictate who will survive. The Shell station will be closing in the near
future and this one will be replacing it. As far as another car wash, one is having its
own difficulties.

It was mentioned that when the petitioner heard that a bike lane was planned
nearby, as an amenity, a bike fix-it station will be offered at this site. A
commissioner was intrigued and asked for more information. Mr. Goldman stated
that bike fixing tools and pumps will be available for riders to use.

Rita Blinstein, resident at 9242 Gross Point Road, spoke about the non-stop heavy
traffic on Skokie Boulevard, Gross Point Road and Church Street and how emergency
vehicles will be impeded going to the nearby hospital. She was disappointed that no
one was addressing the health issues of living close to a gas station for the elderly
and children. She wanted to know more about the statistic that were referenced
about property values. She doesn’t believe that another gas station/car wash and
convenient store is needed.

The chairman agreed that the area is very busy with traffic but the carbon footprint
will not be impacted any more than right now. The petitioner responded that in the
summertime an additive is mixed in to confine vapors.

Staff mentioned that per IDOT requirements, multiple access points will be
consolidated to only one for traffic safety. There are gas stations on Skokie
Boulevard, Main Street, Oakton Street, and Touhy Avenue that are either abutting or
less than 100 feet from residential properties.

A commissioner added that he was initially concerned but when he examined the
site plan and saw where the gas pumps were located, he was convinced that it
would be OK. They will be a fair distance away.

Ms. Blinstein asked if there are any codes for regulating a safe distance from gas
station equipment. The chairman stated that if it becomes a hazard it will be
reviewed.

536762
Victor Flaks, 9242 Gross Point Road, asked about any protection against the fuel
smells being carried by the wind across the buildings. The chairman replied that the
fumes would probably be dissipated with the winds.

Mr. Goldman reiterated that the traffic study was required by IDOT and showed a
very small impact (2%) on an already busy area. They use new state of the art
pumps with devices on the handles that bring the vapors back into the fuel. The
pumps are double-lined and can detect when there is leakage. Many of the smells
are from older stations that also do car repairs. The smells are usually from other
fluids such like oil; gas does not smell anymore. The Shell station is as close to
residential properties as they will be and there is the office building in between.

The health issue has been studied and results show a limited risk. This is a highly
regulated industry and they can be shut down by the Illinois Environmental
Protection Agency, Weights and Measures, or the Fire Marshall if they miss any of
their checklist items. They are very careful and have even incorporated
environmental training at the own corporate level. The fuel dispensers were
purposely placed far away from the residential buildings.

Mr. Goldman commented that the staff reports were very thorough and they will
comply with all recommended conditions.

SITE INFORMATION




See case 2017-54P for site and Complete Streets information.


PETITIONER’S SUBMITTAL
 Waterway Gas & Wash Company ("Waterway") has proposed a full service car wash with
 gasoline and convenience store for 9208 Skokie Boulevard. Waterway is a 45+ year old
 company with 20 locations across 5 separate markets. The first Chicagoland Waterway is in
 the Willow Festival development at 2300 Waukegan Road, Northbrook.
  Character of neighborhood - The proposed use will certainly have a positive impact upon
 the character of the neighborhood. First and foremost, the Waterway development will
 literally bring life to an important business area of Skokie by replacing a closed business
 and deteriorating building. Waterway has a multiple decade long track record and
 commitment to being a good neighbor, participating in local school and charitable events,
 sponsoring not for profits, and bringing the highest level of service to a community. So
 our impact on the character of the neighborhood will only be positive.
  Surrounding Property Values - Our investment in this area will either have no impact or
 positive impact on property values. Studies have been performed that conclude bringing
 a vital business has the butterfly effect of increased values on neighbors.
  Traffic Conditions - Traffic studies by outside engineers, and our 45+ years of business,
 will tell you that our use will harvest the traffic already in the area. While, of course,
 there will be some destination traffic, it is the customers already driving on the streets
 and living in the surrounding neighborhoods that will make up the bulk of our business.
 There will be marginal impact on surrounding streets.
  Utilities, storm water detention, health, safety, morals, and general welfare - Of course,
 the site will be engineered to meet the highest standards relating to utilities, storm
 water, etc. Regarding health, safety, etc., we pride ourselves on being active and
 positive participants in the lives of the neighborhoods we touch. For example, we are a
 lead sponsor at Northbrook Days, sponsor the Glen brook South scoreboard, and host
 multiple food drives, blood drives, warm clothing drives, school supply drives, etc.; all to
 be a great member of the community. Finally, what we are most known for are the
 friendly smiles, greetings, and service from our employees. We will hire great people
 who will represent Waterway as the best in the business; and Skokie as a great
 community.



STAFF ANALYSIS
Staff Comment and Review requests were sent to all pertinent departments and were
received from Forestry, Fire, Environmental Health, Engineering, and Planning. All
other departments returned the requests with no comments regarding the subject case.
Comments related to the overall development are included in site plan approval case
2017-54P, and comments that specifically impact this car wash case include:

 Engineering – Civil
 1. A building sewer permit shall only be issued and a sewer connection shall
 only be permitted if it is demonstrated that the downstream sewerage
 facilities, including sewers, pump stations, and wastewater treatment
 facilities, have sufficient reserve capacity to adequately and efficiently handle
 the additional anticipated waste load.


 Engineering – Traffic
 1. Address all of IDOT’s comments dated November 20, 2017.
 2. Attach copy of IDOT comment disposition response along with updated
 Traffic Impact Study upon resubmission.
 3. Obtain IDOT permit.
 4. Per parking determination case 2017-56P, 13 parking spaces will be required
 for the car wash use.


 Planning
 A car wash is allowed with a special use permit in the B3 Business district. The
 zoning map amendment from B1 Service Commercial to B3 Business was addressed
 in case 2017-52P, site plan-related items were addressed in case 2017-54P, and
 parking requirements were addressed in case 2017-56P.
 The car wash property line is 100’ away from the residentially-zoned property line
 on Skokie Boulevard, and 70’ away from the residentially-zoned property line on
 Gross Point Road.
 The bicycle parking for the car wash will be included in the bicycle parking
 requirements for the overall development, which is 5% of the required number of
 motor vehicle parking spaces.
 Per the traffic impact study, it is anticipated that the car wash has the capacity to
 efficiently move vehicles through the wash tunnel and not create a traffic back-up
 into the fuel station area to the north or an adjacent public street:


 The following summarizes the proposed design, operation and circulation patterns of the
 Waterway Gas & Wash facility.
  Vehicles will enter the site from the access drives on Gross Point Road and Skokie Boulevard.
  After pumping fuel and/or patronizing the convenience store, vehicles will exit the site from
 either of the access drives.
  The fuel pumps will be positioned at the north end of the site in proximity to the car wash
 entrance.
  The car wash tunnel will be on the south side of the convenience store building. Vehicles will
 enter the tunnel on the east side of the building and exit the tunnel on the west side of the
 building.

VOSDOCS-#528551-v1-Staff_Report_-_2017-57P_-_Special_Use_Permit__9208_Skokie_Boulevard
 3 of 7
  The car wash will be a conveyor belt facility with a capacity of approximately 120 vehicles per
 hour or a wash every 30 seconds.
  Data provided by Waterway Carwash for its existing facility in Northbrook indicated that
 approximately 30 to 70 vehicles per hour typically utilize the car wash during the peak hours.
  On average, it takes 2 minutes and 30 seconds for a vehicle to proceed through the entire
 wash tunnel, thereby allowing for a fast clearing of the queue entering the facility.
  The stacking line that leads to the car wash tunnel is located to the south of the fuel pumps.
  Wayfinding signage will be posted at various locations on-site to guide vehicles to the car
 wash entrance.
  The car wash is operated in a manner that efficiently processes anticipated demand and
 minimizes on-site queuing due to the following:
 ▫ There are four entry lanes that lead to the car wash tunnel. There is sufficient space
 within the site to accommodate stacking of carwash vehicles, without obstructing site
 access.
 ▫ Car wash customers that purchase exterior cleaning services only will remain in their
 vehicle and ride through the tunnel, then proceed toward the exit for a quick towel dry
 by Waterway attendants before circulating the site to either access drive.
 ▫ Car wash customers that purchase exterior and interior cleaning services will exit their
 vehicle prior to the tunnel and wait in the convenience store until the wash is completed.
 An attendant will process the vehicle through the tunnel and pull the vehicle into one of
 the 10 vacuum stations to complete the interior cleaning and towel dry the exterior. The
 after-wash vacuuming operation eliminates typical delays at the car wash entry. When
 the service is completed the customer will re-enter the vehicle and exit the site at one of
 the access driveways.

 Excerpt of the Evaluation of On-Site Circulation and Drive-Through Stacking
 With four stacking lanes, a total of 14 vehicles can stack prior to the car wash tunnel entrance
 without obstructing the on-site circulation within the gas station. Based on observations
 conducted at the Waterway Carwash facility in Northbrook, the maximum number of cars stacking
 was 10 vehicles. As such, the proposed car wash will provide sufficient stacking to accommodate
 the projected car wash demand during the peak hours.


 Measures should be taken to ensure any remaining water dripping from the cars
 after they are washed does not impact travel on-site or in the public right-of-way.


APPEARANCE COMMISSION
At its December 13, 2017, meeting, the Appearance Commission approved the
proposed development, (case 2017-081A), subject to conditions.


STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff recommends that the petitioner’s request for a special use permit for a car wash
at 9208 Skokie Boulevard in a B3 Business district be APPROVED, based upon the

Plan Commission Council Chambers, 8:00 PM May 22, 2018


To: Mayor and Board of Trustees
From: Paul Luke, Plan Commission Chairman
Case: 2018-08P: Special Use Permit
 7855 Gross Point Road Unit G5

PLAN COMMISSION ANALYSIS
At its April 19, 2018 meeting, the Plan Commission heard the request of 7855 Property
Owner, LLC, on behalf of Jesto Joseph and Saju Chakkappan for a special use permit
for automobile rental in an M1 Office Assembly Industry zoning district and any relief
that may be discovered during the review of this case. A1 Van Rentals, which is
presently operating in Niles, intends to open a second location in a 738 square foot
office at 7855 Gross Point Road, Unit G5. The business will have 2 vans available for
rental at the Skokie location. The owner of the business indicates that he will be “using
this space only for the office with [a] computer, printer and with one part-time
employee and we will be strictly using 2 spots for van parking and 2 spots for personal
car parking. Most of the time all vans will be on rentals so usually we don’t take that
much [space].”
The Plan Commission concurred with Staff’s recommendation to grant the special use
permit subject to conditions.
In response to a question by a commissioner who asked if anyone would be staffing the
office, the petitioner replied that the office would be staffed only when somebody
needed to rent one of the trucks at that location.
The commissioner asked if all the parking spaces at the subject site were unassigned to
tenants in the building. Staff responded that, in addition to the 2 assigned spaces for
the vans, several other tenants have assigned spaces at the property as well.
Another commissioner asked if the vans were rented for commercial use or personal
use. The petitioner replied that these are passenger vans and would be rented for
personal use. The commissioner also asked how the van pick up process worked. The
petitioner explained that someone would need to drop off a person to pick up the van
from the site. Customers’ vehicles would not remain at the subject site while they are
renting the van.

INTERESTED PARTIES
Legal notice was properly posted, advertised, and delivered to all property owners in
the area of the subject site as prescribed by the Zoning Chapter. No interested parties
spoke regarding the case.

Case Description

2018-08P – Special Use Permit: 7855 Gross Point Road, Unit G5
7855 Property Owner, LLC, on behalf of Jesto Joseph and Saju Chakkappan,
requests a special use permit for automobile rental in an M1 Office Assembly

of this case.

Discussion and Interested Parties

Legal notice was properly advertised and posted as prescribed by the Zoning
Chapter. At the previous meeting, personal notice was determined by
Corporation Counsel to be proper and correct.

Jesto Joseph, operator of the business, and his partner, Saju Chakkappan
presented the case. They wish to lease the small office as a satellite location of
their passenger van rental business which operates in Niles. This location is
visible with easy access.

The chairman asked about the type of vans in their fleet. The petitioners said
they have small mini vans as well as 10-12 passenger vans.

A commissioner wanted confirmation that they are just renting a small storefront
office and asked how many parking spaces they will be using. The petitioners
stated that they will have 2 parking spaces for the vans. The commissioner
asked if they have any signage and if parking is unassigned. Mr. Joseph stated
that they do not have any signage right now and are planning to park in front of
their unit. Most of the vehicles will be at the Niles location.

Another commissioner wanted clarification: do people leave their own vehicles at
the site when they pick up the rental? He asked if they rent out to companies or
individuals. Mr. Joseph stated the operation is similar to Enterprise and they rent
to individuals. Customers cannot keep their own private vehicle parked on the
536646v1
site for the rental period. At least 2 people are needed - one to drive the rental
van and one to drive the personal vehicle. The vehicles are rented to individuals
rather than companies.

Staff requested that the report be accepted into the record as presented. The
building is partially vacant and the site is to be renovated in the near future.
This small business will not be working out of this office frequently. He further
explained that assigned parking can only take place when there is an excess
amount of spaces available which is the case right now. The parking
requirements will be 2 spaces for the employees and 2 designated spaces for the
rental vans.

The petitioners are agreeable to all recommended conditions.
