 This Agreement is entered into this day of 2015 by and
between SKOKIE SWIFT, LLC, hereinafter referred to as "PROPERTY OWNER", and the
VILLAGE OF SKOKIE, an Illinois municipal corporation hereinafter referred to as "VILLAGE".
The parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows:

 1. PROPERTY OWNER is the owner of real property located in the Village of Skokie,
 described as follows:
 THE NORTH 297 FEET OF THAT PART OF LOT 1 IN ASSESSOR'S DIVISION OF
 THE NORTHEAST 1/4 OF SECTION 121, TOWNSHIP 41 NORTH RANGE 13 EAST
 OF THE THIRD PRINCIPAL MERIDIAN, LYING EASTERLY OF A LINE PARALLEL

 PINS: 10-21-202-041-8001, 10-21-202-041-8002
 commonly known as 5001 Dempster Street, Skokie, Illinois.

 2. At or near the time of execution of this Agreement, the VILLAGE granted an
 Occupancy Permit, Business License, or Special Use Permit hereinafter collectively
 referred to as “permit” pursuant to state statutes and local ordinances.

 3. By the terms of the aforesaid permit, the PROPERTY OWNER is required to install
 and maintain landscaping in accordance with the plan dated August 28, 2003 or as
 it may be subsequently revised with the approval of the Village Manager, or
 designee, and the Corporation Counsel.

 4. The parties to this Agreement recognize that the installation and maintenance of
 landscaping is an integral part of the PROPERTY OWNER's plan for development
 and/or use of the property and is necessary to carry out the purpose and intent of the
 VILLAGE's land use objectives, and that the permit would not have been approved
 by the VILLAGE without the assurance that this Agreement would be executed by
 the PROPERTY OWNER.

 5. The purpose of this Agreement is to assure:

 (a) installation of the landscaping in accordance with the landscaping plan
 approved by the VILLAGE, and

 Page 5 of 9

VOSDOCS-#470174-v1-Ordinance__2003-
43P__SUP__Modified_Review__Outdoor_Dining_Modification__5001_Dempster__Starbucks.doc
 (b) continued maintenance and care of the landscaping, including any
 landscaping indicated in the parkway area.

 6. The property, which is the subject matter of this Agreement, is legally described
 above. The portions of the Subject Property which are to be landscaped and
 maintained pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement are indicated on
 the Landscape Plan attached hereto, marked Exhibit “1” and are hereby made a part
 of this Agreement.

 7. PROPERTY OWNER agrees that the installation and maintenance of the
 landscaping which is required in accordance with the permit issued by the VILLAGE
 and this Agreement will materially benefit the Subject Property. Such landscaping is
 necessary in order for the PROPERTY OWNER to comply with the conditions of the
 permit issued or granted by the VILLAGE for the PROPERTY OWNER’s requested
 development or use of the property.

 8. PROPERTY OWNER shall diligently maintain and care for the landscaping which is
 installed and required by the permit and this Agreement, using generally accepted
 methods of cultivation and watering. The PROPERTY OWNER shall maintain a
 standard of care necessary to prevent the landscaping from deteriorating to the
 extent that its value as landscaping is destroyed. If Exhibit “1”, attached hereto or
 permit specifies maintenance standards or procedures, such procedures are hereby
 adopted as part of this Agreement, and by such adoption, become enforcement
 conditions of this Agreement.

 9. Failure to maintain the landscaping as required by this Agreement shall be a
 nuisance. In the event the PROPERTY OWNER fails to meet the standard of
 maintenance necessary to keep the landscaping in a healthy condition as required
 by this Agreement, the VILLAGE shall give written notice of the deficiency to the
 PROPERTY OWNER who shall have 20 days to make the necessary correction or
 replacement. If such correction or replacement is not made within the aforesaid 20-
 day period, the VILLAGE may elect to abate the nuisance and take necessary action
 to assure that the landscaping is replaced and/or maintained. In the event, the
 VILLAGE so elects; the VILLAGE shall serve notice of its intent to enter the
 premises for this purpose. The VILLAGE shall either personally serve the notice
 upon the PROPERTY OWNER or mail a copy of it by certified mail to the
 PROPERTY OWNER's last known address, or as shown on the tax rolls, at least 15
 days in advance of the date when the VILLAGE or its agent intends to enter the
 premises.

 10. For this purpose, the VILLAGE or its agent may enter upon the property and perform
 such work as it considers reasonably necessary and proper to restore, maintain, or
 replace the landscaping required by this Agreement. The VILLAGE may act either
 through its own employees or through an independent contractor.

 11. The VILLAGE shall be entitled to reimbursement for abating the nuisance in
 restoring, maintaining or replacing the landscaping, provided that the VILLAGE
 follows the procedures set forth in this Agreement. Costs shall include but shall not
 be limited to actual costs incurred by the VILLAGE and administrative costs. The
 VILLAGE shall make demand upon the PROPERTY OWNER for payment. If the
 PROPERTY OWNER fails to pay the costs within 30 days of the date on which
 Page 6 of 9

VOSDOCS-#470174-v1-Ordinance__2003-
43P__SUP__Modified_Review__Outdoor_Dining_Modification__5001_Dempster__Starbucks.doc
 demand is made, the VILLAGE may cause a lien to be placed on the Subject
 Property. The VILLAGE may record a notice with the Recorder of Deeds for Cook
 County stating that it has incurred expenses under the terms this Landscape
 Agreement. The VILLAGE shall be entitled to collect interest at the statutory rate on
 the amount owed.

 12. In addition to having a lien placed on the Subject Property, the VILLAGE may
 institute a legal action to collect the amount owed. The PROPERTY OWNER agrees
 to pay the VILLAGE a reasonable sum for attorney's fees and court costs.

 13. If either party upon the execution of this Agreement or during the course of
 performance considers that it is necessary to have the PROPERTY OWNER post
 additional security to guarantee the performance of his obligations hereunder, the
 VILLAGE may require the PROPERTY OWNER to post additional security. The
 VILLAGE may require either a cash deposit or a surety bond guaranteeing
 performance in a form signed by sureties satisfactory to the VILLAGE. The
 condition of the security shall be that if the PROPERTY OWNER fails to perform any
 obligation under this Agreement, the VILLAGE may, act on behalf of the
 PROPERTY OWNER and use the proceeds of the cash bond, or in the case of a
 surety bond, require the securities to perform the obligations of this Agreement.

 14. The PROPERTY OWNER hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
 VILLAGE, its trustees, officials, employees and agents for any costs, claims, actions
 or causes of action for personal injury, property damage or otherwise, including
 reasonable attorneys fees, which may arise from the VILLAGE exercising any of its
 rights or obligations and performance under this Agreement.

 15. All notices required or to be given pursuant hereto shall be in writing and either
 delivered personally or by a nationally recognized "over-night" courier service or

PLAN COMMISSION ANALYSIS
At its March 19, 2015 meeting, the Plan Commission heard the request of Standard
Bank and Trust Company, as Trustee under Trust No. 16633, on behalf of Robert
Heilman for Metro Storage, LLC to subdivide 1 lot into 2 lots at 3220-3240 Touhy
Avenue in a B2 Commercial zoning district. The existing building on Lot 1 will be
renovated and enlarged and will be occupied by a Metro Storage self-service storage
facility (cases 2015-7P and 2015-8P). Lot 2 will remain vacant with the intent of being
redeveloped for commercial use at some point in the future.
The south 17 feet of Lot 2 will be dedicated to the Illinois Department of Transportation
to meet the Village’s Subdivision Code requirement that Touhy Avenue be dedicated at
50 feet from the platted centerline.
The Plan Commission concurred with Staff’s recommendation to grant the subdivision
subject to conditions.
One commissioner inquired as to whether the petitioner accepted staff’s request to
dedicate land for right-of-way on Touhy Avenue, and the petitioner acknowledge that
they were willing to dedicate the land to the IDOT.


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.

PETITIONER’S SUBMITTAL
The petitioner is requesting a subdivision of 1 lot into 2 lots at 3220-3240 Touhy
Avenue in a B2 Commercial zoning district. The existing building on Lot 1 will be
renovated and enlarged and will be occupied by a Metro Storage self-service storage
facility (cases 2015-7P and 2015-8P). Lot 2 will remain vacant with the intent of being

The south 17 feet of Lot 2 will be dedicated to the Illinois Department of Transportation
to meet the Village’s Subdivision Code requirement that Touhy Avenue be dedicated at
50 feet from the platted centerline.


STAFF ANALYSIS
Comments
Staff Comment and Review sheets were sent to all pertinent departments. Staff
comments on the subject case were received from the Engineering Division. All other
departments returned the sheets with no comments.

 Engineering Division
 An access easement must be established on the plat of subdivision for the portion of
 the existing east-west driveway off Kedzie Avenue to the north of the bank property.

 Planning Division
 The Planning Division supports the proposed subdivision. The subdivision will meet
 all requirements of the Village Code and Map Data Policy. Dedicating the south 17
 feet of Lot 2 will not only bring the property into compliance with the Subdivision
 Code, but will also reserve right-of-way for the future possibility of the replacement
 of the bridge over the North Shore Channel. The existing bridge is outmoded and
 will likely need to be replaced and widened at some point to handle current and
 future traffic conditions.

Discussion and 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. Notice was reviewed and
ruled to be proper and correct.

All cases were discussed as a whole since they involve the same site. However, each
case was voted on separately.

Robert Heilman, Vice President of development for Metro Storage and David Meek,
attorney from Becker Gurian presented the cases. Metro Storage is proposing to take the
existing vacant building and expand it vertically for a self-storage mini warehouse. It
will have only internal storage. No vehicle storage will take place outside.
 There will be 3 elevators to accommodate the three areas for loading. They will raise the
roof for a mezzanine level, re-face the existing building and re-do the parking lot which
needs cosmetic attention but seems to be in good condition. The petitioner displayed a
floor plan showing the first floor having larger storage units than the 2nd level. The
Appearance Commission approved the elevations at its January 14, 2015 meeting.

The chairman asked if it would be a 24/7 facility. Mr. Heilman stated that the facility is
staffed from 9 AM to 6 PM and customers have PINS for access from 6 AM to 10 PM.
They operate 7 days a week. The facility is fully secured with cameras which are
monitored on and off site. The facility \is very well lit as well.

The chairman also inquired if they monitor what types of things can be stored. The
petitioner answered that the manager makes a check of items as clients initially come in.
They have a strict lease. No chemicals or hazardous materials are allowed. Twice a day
the area is patrolled for smells or noises not allowed.

A commissioner asked if firearms can be stored or brought in. Mr. Heilman stated that he
wasn’t sure if anything has been established since the laws passed but will find out.

Another commissioner asked if the manager would be residing on the premises. Mr.
Heilman stated that in the newer facilities, they do not have a residence on site.

Another commissioner wanted confirmation that the bank is a separate parcel even
though it is wrapped as part of the planned development. The bank site is a separate
parcel and will remain as is. The 1 acre parcel of the property that has been flagged for
future use will be split off and marketed separately.

He also inquired if notice was sent out to Chicago residents bordering the site. Mr. Meek
answered in the affirmative.

Staff summarized the staff reports and asked that they all be entered into the record as
written. Staff noted a typo error in the legal notice and wanted to clarify that for Cases
2015-5P, 6P, and 8P, the requested zoning classification should be M2 Light Industry
instead of the incorrectly listed M3. The M2 zone is appropriate for the site and is a good
471293 Plan Commission meeting minutes 3/19/15 Case 2015-8P
buffer between the adjacent M3 Industry and close by residential districts. Due to
increased traffic on Touhy Avenue, staff is requesting a 17-foot dedication of land to
IDOT for the future expansion and widening of the sub-standard bridge at Touhy
Avenue. There also needs to be a cross easement to allow access to Kedzie Avenue
through Lot 1.

Mr. Meek added that there is an existing declaration of easement from 1991 which
provides access to the site. He assured the commission that it would be shown on the plat
prior to the Village Board meeting.

The Engineering Division determined that 13 vehicle parking spaces should be provided
based on 1% of the number of units and a 1/300 ratio would be used for the office and
retail area. The entire site is a planned development and therefore will have shared
parking.

The existing site plan review was good and parking was adequate. There are 3 buildings
on site and the proposal is for 3 buildings as well. The previous ordinances will be
repealed and all conditions carried forward to a new planned development ordinance.
The bank site will be separated out and have its own ordinance.

Mr. Meek voiced concern over the request for removal of the southern apron and
replacement with sidewalk and landscaping. The petitioner wishes to retain it for an
access drive for their customers because it is located near one of the loading areas. The
commission did not have any objection.

The petitioner is in agreement with all conditions. They worked well with staff.


Recommendation and Voting

Individual motions were made to approve the requests for a subdivision, zoning map
amendment from B2 to M2, site plan approval, a parking determination of 13 vehicle
parking spaces and a special use permit for a self-storage warehouse (112 units) in an M2
zoning district as all self-storage uses are special uses in M2.

PLAN COMMISSION ANALYSIS
At its March 19, 2015 meeting, the Plan Commission heard the request of Standard
Bank and Trust Company, as Trustee under Trust No. 16633, on behalf of Robert
Heilman for Metro Storage, LLC to amend the zoning map to change the zoning district
for Lot 1, to be created in case 2015-4P, from B2 Commercial to M2 Light Industry.
The petitioner desires to rezone the subject site, which presently contains a vacant
multitenant commercial building and associated parking lots, to M2 in order to construct
a Metro Storage self-service storage facility (cases 2015-7P and 2015-8P). Self-service
storage facilities are not a permitted use in the B2 Commercial district. Lot 2 in the
Metro Storage Resubdivision (case 2015-4P) will remain zoned B2 with the intent of
being redeveloped for commercial use at some point in the future.
Staff believes that although the subject site is bordered by M3-zoned properties to the
north and west and self-service storage facilities are allowed with a special use permit
in the M1, M2, and M3 districts, M2 Light Industry is an appropriate zone for the subject
site. The M2 district has generally more restrictions on uses than the M3 district but
allows for greater maximum lot coverage of buildings than the M1 district, and has
historically served as a buffer between M3-zoned properties and properties with other
zoning classifications in Skokie. Staff clarified at the Plan Commission meeting that the
petitioner desired to rezone the subject site to M2, not M3, as was incorrectly published
on the legal notice.
The Plan Commission concurred with Staff’s recommendation to grant the zoning map
amendment.

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.

PLAN COMMISSION ANALYSIS
During its March 16, 2015, meeting, the Plan Commission heard the petitioners’ request
to modify an existing site plan approval at 3200-3240 Touhy Avenue to increase the
size of the rear building, remove land use restrictions, and accommodate minor changes
to the site in B2 Commercial and M2 zoning districts.
The site currently contains a vacant commercial building, a bank with a drive-through
facility, and an undeveloped outlot, with multiple access points along Kedzie Avenue
and Touhy Avenue. The existing vacant commercial building is approximately 64,241
ft2, which would be re-imaged with a new office area at the southern end of the
building, a raised roof and a second-floor mezzanine. The total floor area of this
building is proposed to be approximately 122,482 ft2. The facility will provide 812
storage units and 55 off-street parking spaces. The Plan Commission determined that
only 13 parking spaces will be required for the self-storage facility.
The proposed site design also calls for a 1 acre parcel to be carved out of the
southwestern portion of the site for future development. The North Community Bank
parcel will remain unchanged.
The plan accommodates a 17-foot dedication of land along Touhy for the future
expansion and widening of the sub-standard bridge over the North Shore Channel and
necessary cross-easements to allow access between the lots.
The proposed recommended conditions replace all the conditions in the previously
approved ordinances and the special use for the bank drive-through facility will be
separated into its own ordinance.
The petitioner agreed to almost all the conditions except that the petitioners asked to
retain one apron and some additional pavement that staff had requested to be
removed. The Commission agreed to the petitioners’ request.

 The site is served by the CTA’s 96 Lunt and 11 Lincoln Avenue buses and the Pace
 290 Touhy Avenue bus.

PETITIONER’S SUBMITTAL
Standard Bank and Trust Company, as Trustee under Trust No. 16633, on behalf of
Robert Heilman for Metro Storage, LLC, and Metropolitan Bank Group a/k/a Byline Bank
Corp. are proposing to modify an existing site plan approval to increase the size of the
building and remove land use restrictions at 3220-3240 Touhy Avenue and to
accommodate minor changes to the site in B2 Commercial and M2 zoning districts.
The submitted Statement of Effects of the Proposed Use is attached to this report.
The site is located at the northwest corner of Touhy Avenue and Kedzie Avenue and
currently contains a vacant commercial building, a bank with a drive-through facility,
and an undeveloped portion at the southwest corner of the site. The site has 6 access
points along the east and south property lines with the main driveway to the property
being on the Kedzie Avenue frontage. The existing vacant commercial building is
approximately 64,241 ft2, mostly on one floor but with an approximately 3,000 ft2
second floor near the rear. The proposed site design calls for a 1 acre parcel to be
carved out of the southwestern portion of the site for future development.
The majority of the vacant commercial building exterior would be re-imaged, including a
new office area at the southern end of the building. The roof would also be raised to
create space for a second-floor mezzanine, adding an additional 58,421 ft2 to the
building floor area. The total building floor area is proposed to be approximately
122,482 ft2. The facility will provide 812 storage units and 55 off-street parking spaces.
The plan also reduces the overall vehicle parking spaces on the site. The parking need
for self-storage facilities is fairly low, as the average number of trip generations for a
facility of this size is approximately 4.5 vehicle trips per hour. Metro Storage operates
85 locations and its experience indicates the proposed level of parking supports the
demand.
The North Community Bank property at the corner of Touhy Avenue and Kedzie Avenue
is not a part of the proposed modifications and no alterations will be made to that site
or to its existing access from public roads.

Two items of relief were requested, but Staff determined that neither was necessary.


STAFF ANALYSIS
Staff Comment and Review sheets were sent to all pertinent departments. Staff
comments on the submitted plans were received from the Engineering, Forestry, and
Planning Divisions. All other departments returned the sheets with no comments.
The original planned development was approved in 1990 (89-33P) and amended 3
times from 1990-1992 to allow minor modifications for bank with a drive-through, a
multitenant commercial building that included a furniture store with a low parking
requirement, and a future outlot. A health club was later added. The ordinance
contained a number of land use restrictions, including a clause stating that a portion of
the multitenant building could only be used for a furniture store or another use with a
1:800 parking requirement and that no restaurants or food establishments could be
located at the shopping center without review and approval by the Plan Commission
and the Village Board, effectively making them special uses. The special use permit for
the bank was co-mingled into the site plan approval and needs to be separated.


Engineering Division
The Engineering Division is supportive of the request with certain conditions.
Accommodation for additional parking for additional uses is discussed in the Planning
Division comments.
Parking on the bank lot is pre-established, and not reviewed as part of this case
because the parking was not shown on the plan. There were also no dimensions for
the parking facilities on the lot that will contain the self-storage facility.
The parking spaces provided far exceed the requirement of the proposed uses. This
may change depending on the final development and use of the building labeled “future
development.” One bicycle space is provided on the site plan for the self-storage
building, which meets the Code requirement. For a 1:300 use in the future
development, a least 2 bicycle spaces would be required.
The existing pavement for the proposed development is in significant need of
maintenance and needs to be resurfaced and restriped.


Forestry Division
The Forestry Division is requesting that that new trees along Kedzie should only be
lower growing selections due to the presence of overhead utilities. Also, when the
“future development” occurs, a tree removal permits and any associated fees would be
required for any tree over 8” in diameter.


VOSDOCS-#472317-v1-Master_Plan_Commission_Report_for_2015-6P__site_plan_approval_for_3200-3240_Touhy_Avenue.docx


 10 of 23
Planning Division
Planning is supportive of the proposed planned development as amended by the
recommendations of the Engineering Division.
There are no outdoor storage spaces for vehicles, boats, trailers, etc. shown on the site
plan. Outdoor storage of any kind would require a separate special use permit.
Although the use is not known for the southwestern portion of the site, there is ample
surplus vehicle parking to accommodate uses with parking ratios above 1:300 as long
as parking within the development is not restricted to specific users.
The recommended conditions for site plan approval include all relevant conditions from
the 4 existing active ordinances for this site. Staff has removed the requirement that
the Plan Commission and Village Board approve any restaurant or food establishment
on the site; this land use restriction is no longer applicable based on the current
permitted and special use structure in Appendix A. Staff has also removed the
restriction that most of the rear building be used for a furniture store or other use with
a 1:800 parking requirement; this requirement was put in place because of the lack of
parking due to the health club on the site and is also no longer applicable.
Finally, consistent with the Village’s current procedures, Staff is requesting that the
special use permit for the bank drive-through facility be separated from the site plan
approval and be made its own ordinance. Recommended conditions for that special use
permit are at the end of this report.


Relief
The petitioner requested a reduction in the required front yard for Lot 1 and the
number of parkway trees. Staff determined that the reduction in front yard is not
necessary because the yard lines apply to the extents of the planned development, with
the Touhy frontage, not Kedzie, established as the front of the development. Also,
driveways and site distance triangles are exempt from the parkway tree requirements.
The number of existing and proposed parkway trees on the petitioners’ landscape plan
is consistent with the intent of the Village Code.
Staff discovered during the review of this case that Kedzie Avenue is technically not
within a dedicated right-of-way, but land owned by the City of Chicago, and is
residentially zoned under Chicago’s zoning. Since the Kedzie side of the development is
a side yard, there might be 30’ required setback in an M2 property that abuts a
residentially zoned property if Corporation Counsel determines: 1) that our Code
considers the zoning in an adjacent jurisdiction that the Skokie Village Board does not
have regulatory authority over and 2) that publically held land containing a publically
used and maintained street is not considered right-of-way. If the abutting land is not
residentially zoned, there is no side yard setback. Since the addition is directly on top
of the existing structure, Staff would recommend granting that relief since the abutting
property is a street, not a residence. Relief was not specifically granted when the
building was constructed, although the site plan was approved.

APPEARANCE COMMISSION
Appearance Commission did not need to review anything for this case.


STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff recommends that the petitioner’s request for site plan approval for a planned
development at 3200-3240 Touhy Avenue be APPROVED subject to the attached
Positive Findings of Fact and Recommended Site Plan Approval Conditions listed below.
Staff also recommends that, if necessary, relief from Sec. 118-173(3) to continue an
established side yard setback abutting a residential district be APPROVED.
Staff further recommends that V.O. 90-3-Z-2124, 90-7-Z-2156, 90-10-Z-2182, and 92-
1-Z-2264 be repealed, with all relevant conditions included in the recommended site
plan conditions below, and a new special use permit ordinance be administratively
created, separate from the site plan approval ordinance, for the bank drive-through
facility.

 ATTACHMENT A
 Statement of Effects of the Proposed Use
 Petition for Special Use Permit and Site Plan Approval for a
 Self-Service Storage Facility at 3240 W. Touhy Avenue
 (Applicant: Metro Storage LLC)


“State the effects of the proposed use upon the character of the neighborhood, the
property values, traffic conditions, public utilities, storm water detention, and other
matters pertaining to the public health, safety, morals and general welfare of the
community.”
Overview of the Proposed Self-Storage Facility.
The Petitioner, Metro Storage LLC, is proposing to redevelop a major portion of Town
Center Plaza that once was the site of the Wickes Furniture store. The Petitioner is
proposing an adaptive re-use of the existing building into a Class “A” 100% climate-
controlled self-storage facility, a low intensity use that will fit well within the commercial
and light industrial area.
The majority of the building exterior would be re-imaged, including a new office area at
the southern end of the building. The Petitioner will raise the roof to create space for a
second-floor mezzanine, adding an additional 58,421 sq. ft. to the building floor area.
The total building floor area is proposed to be approximately 122,482 sq. ft. The facility
will provide 812 storage units and 55 off-street parking spaces.
Customers may access their storage units with personalized key codes from 6:00 am to
10:00 pm. Office and retail sales hours will be from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm. Operation of
the facility is coordinated by the Site Manager and sometimes one other staff person,
averaging 1.5 staff per day. The facility will use an array of video security cameras that
will cover virtually 100% of the public areas of the facility and will be monitored from the
office or over the internet.
The facility will be self-serving, meaning that customers will drive their vehicles in the
overhead door bays, shut the overhead door, and load or unload their belongings onto
carts for transport to their storage locker. New clients would park adjacent to the office
and lease a new unit, then move their vehicle to one of the loading bays to load or
unload their belongings.
The Petitioner’s redevelopment plan calls for resubdividing the existing property into a
north lot and a south lot: (A) Lot 1, a 119,436 sq. ft. lot fronting Kedzie Avenue
consisting of the existing building and parking areas; and (B) Lot 2, a 43,549 sq. ft. lot
fronting Touhy Avenue adjacent to the North Community Bank parcel that could be sold
or leased for future commercial/restaurant/office development.
The Petitioner is proposing to reduce the number of existing parking spaces from 171
spaces to 55 parking spaces, including 2 handicap spaces. The reduction is parking is
the result of creating Lot 2 and separating it from Lot 1, the self-storage property. The
parking need for self-storage facilities is fairly low, as the average number of trip
generations for a facility of this size is approximately 4.5 vehicle trips per hour. Metro

 17 of 23
Storage operates 85 locations and its experience indicates the proposed level of
parking supports the demand.
The North Community Bank property at the corner of Touhy Avenue and Kedzie Avenue
is not a part of the Petitioner’s proposal and no alterations will be made to that site or to
its existing access from public roads.
Effects of the Proposed Use.
The proposed reuse and redevelopment of Lot 1 is consistent with, and complimentary
of, the existing land uses and zoning in the area. The proposed reuse and
redevelopment will not interfere with the use and development of neighboring properties
within the Village in accordance with applicable zoning regulations. Land uses in the
area include a variety of long-established industrial properties to the north (M3 zoning),
the North Shore Channel and parkland to the west, the North Community Bank property
to the south at the northwest corner of Touhy Avenue and Kedzie Avenue (B2 zoning),
parkland along the south side of Touhy Avenue (Village of Lincolnwood zoning), and a
long-established single-family residential area to the east, buffered by a bike and
walking path along Kedzie Avenue (City of Chicago zoning).
The adaptive re-use of the long-vacant building into a Class “A” self-storage facility is an
appropriate low-intensity use for the property. This use is complementary to the existing
character of the property and to the businesses and residential areas in the vicinity. As
an adaptive re-use, the scale and location of the existing building will not change. The
project will improve the quality of architecture of the building by updating the exterior
materials and design of the most prominent sections being the east and south
elevations consistent with plans approved by the Appearance Commission. This will
improve the appearance of the property in a way that makes it complimentary to the
established character of the area.
Restoring the site to productive commercial use will positively affect property values in
the neighborhood. The redevelopment of the property will have a positive impact on the
community as a visible building will once again have a tenant that operates a Class ‘A’
facility. Carving out the new Lot 2 creates a new development site that creates an
opportunity for future commercial, retail or office uses.
Self-storage is a low traffic-generating use. Because of this, the proposed facility will
have minimal impact on area traffic, and will create fewer vehicle trips per hour than
many businesses that might otherwise locate at the site. The use will generate
approximately 4.5 vehicle trips per hour on weekdays and weekends. Access to the
self-storage facility and to the future development parcel will be provided through the
four existing access points on Kedzie Avenue and Touhy Avenue. Kedzie Avenue will
provide the principle access for the self-storage facility.
The Petitioner is providing 55 off-street parking spaces including 2 handicap spaces,
which is more than adequate to service the parking demand. The Village has required
other self-storage facilities to provide parking at a ratio of 1 space per 100 storage units.
This facility will have 812 storage units and a 1,399 sq. ft. office area. The Village likely
would require a total of 14 off-street parking spaces.


VOSDOCS-#472317-v1-Master_Plan_Commission_Report_for_2015-6P__site_plan_approval_for_3200-3240_Touhy_Avenue.docx


 18 of 23
The Lot 2 future development parcel is large enough to accommodate a variety of
commercial/retail/restaurant uses. The Petitioner’s site plan provides an example of
future development of a one-story 10,800 sq. ft. office/commercial building with 36
parking spaces provided at a ratio of 1 space per 300 sq. ft. of building area.
Existing sidewalks along Touhy Avenue and Kedzie Avenue provide safe pedestrian
access to and from the site. Crosswalks will be striped across the access drives and
between adjacent uses.
The site is served by existing public facilities and services. Self-storage generates
negligible amounts of effluent, with low impact on local water and sanitary systems.
Public utilities will not be unduly burdened by the development.
No additional impervious area is being added to the property. Stormwater will be
conveyed and controlled by existing facilities. Stormwater drainage will not negatively
impact neighboring properties.
The public health, safety, morals and general welfare in general will not be unduly
burdened by the development.
Compliance with Zoning Code; Requested Exceptions.
The proposed self-storage facility on Lot 1 complies with or exceeds all of the provisions
of the Zoning Code, with two exceptions:
First, Zoning Code relief from the front yard setback is requested because the
resubdivision will create a new Lot 1 which will only be adjacent to Kedzie Avenue,
causing Kedzie Avenue to become the front yard of Lot 1. The Petitioner is doing an
adaptive re-use that does not alter the building footprint. The size of the existing yard
will not be altered. What is currently a side yard will become a front yard due to the
splitting of an existing single lot fronting Touhy Avenue into two lots: Lot 1 which fronts
on Kedzie Avenue, and Lot 2 which fronts on Touhy Avenue. For Lot 1, a front yard of
25 feet is required under Sec. 118-173(2). The Petitioner requests a front yard variance
of 19 feet for a front yard of 6.0 feet from the east property line of Lot 1.
 Second, Zoning Code relief is sought for the number of parkway trees. Under
Sec. 118-232(b), parkway trees shall be planted 30 feet apart whenever possible. The
Petitioner proposes a total of 13 parkway trees along the east side of Lot 1, rather than
18 parkway trees as would be required by the code’s 30-foot offset. The parkway along
north Kedzie Avenue adjacent to the east side of the existing building is 561 feet. 18
trees at a 30-foot offset are required by code, but only 13 can be provided due to the
location of driveways and the location of existing healthy trees. The Petitioner
proposes to retain 10 existing trees and add 3 trees in this parkway area.

Discussion and 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. Notice was reviewed and ruled to be proper
and correct.

All cases were discussed as a whole since they involve the same site. However, each case was
voted on separately.

Robert Heilman, Vice President of development for Metro Storage and David Meek, attorney
from Becker Gurian presented the cases. Metro Storage is proposing to take the existing vacant
building and expand it vertically for a self-storage mini warehouse. It will have only internal
storage. No vehicle storage will take place outside.
 There will be 3 elevators to accommodate the three areas for loading. They will raise the roof
for a mezzanine level, re-face the existing building and re-do the parking lot which needs
cosmetic attention but seems to be in good condition. The petitioner displayed a floor plan
showing the first floor having larger storage units than the 2nd level. The Appearance
Commission approved the elevations at its January 14, 2015 meeting.

The chairman asked if it would be a 24/7 facility. Mr. Heilman stated that the facility is staffed
from 9 AM to 6 PM and customers have PINS for access from 6 AM to 10 PM. They operate 7
days a week. The facility is fully secured with cameras which are monitored on and off site.
The facility \is very well lit as well.

The chairman also inquired if they monitor what types of things can be stored. The petitioner
answered that the manager makes a check of items as clients initially come in. They have a strict
lease. No chemicals or hazardous materials are allowed. Twice a day the area is patrolled for
smells or noises not allowed.

A commissioner asked if firearms can be stored or brought in. Mr. Heilman stated that he wasn’t
sure if anything has been established since the laws passed but will find out.

Another commissioner asked if the manager would be residing on the premises. Mr. Heilman
stated that in the newer facilities, they do not have a residence on site.

Another commissioner wanted confirmation that the bank is a separate parcel even though it is
wrapped as part of the planned development. The bank site is a separate parcel and will remain
as is. The 1 acre parcel of the property that has been flagged for future use will be split off and
marketed separately.

He also inquired if notice was sent out to Chicago residents bordering the site. Mr. Meek
answered in the affirmative.

Staff summarized the staff reports and asked that they all be entered into the record as written.
Staff noted a typo error in the legal notice and wanted to clarify that for Cases 2015-5P, 6P, and
8P, the requested zoning classification should be M2 Light Industry instead of the incorrectly
listed M3. The M2 zone is appropriate for the site and is a good buffer between the adjacent M3
Industry and close by residential districts. Due to increased traffic on Touhy Avenue, staff is
requesting a 17-foot dedication of land to IDOT for the future expansion and widening of the
sub-standard bridge at Touhy Avenue. There also needs to be a cross easement to allow access to
Kedzie Avenue through Lot 1.

Mr. Meek added that there is an existing declaration of easement from 1991 which provides
access to the site. He assured the commission that it would be shown on the plat prior to the
Village Board meeting.

The Engineering Division determined that 13 vehicle parking spaces should be provided based
on 1% of the number of units and a 1/300 ratio would be used for the office and retail area. The
entire site is a planned development and therefore will have shared parking.

The existing site plan review was good and parking was adequate. There are 3 buildings on site
and the proposal is for 3 buildings as well. The previous ordinances will be repealed and all
conditions carried forward to a new planned development ordinance. The bank site will be
separated out and have its own ordinance.

Mr. Meek voiced concern over the request for removal of the southern apron and replacement
with sidewalk and landscaping. The petitioner wishes to retain it for an access drive for their
customers because it is located near one of the loading areas. The commission did not have any
objection.

The petitioner is in agreement with all conditions. They worked well with staff.


Recommendation and Voting

Individual motions were made to approve the requests for a subdivision, zoning map amendment
from B2 to M2, site plan approval, a parking determination of 13 vehicle parking spaces and a
special use permit for a self-storage warehouse (112 units) in an M2 zoning district as all self-
storage uses are special uses in M2.

PLAN COMMISSION ANALYSIS
During its March 16, 2015, meeting, the Plan Commission heard the petitioner’s request
for a special use permit for a self-storage warehouse at 3220 Touhy Avenue in an M2
Light Industry district.
Metro Storage proposes conversion of the existing building to a 2-story, 812 unit,
climate-controlled self-storage facility totaling 122,482 ft2. Operating hours with a
manager on duty will be from 9am to 6pm, 7-days a week. Customers can enter the
facility with personalized key codes from 6am to 10pm. The facility will house an array
of video security cameras that will cover virtually 100% of the public areas of the facility
and be monitored from the office or over the web.
Customers pull their vehicles into the building, shut the overhead door, and load or
unload their belongings onto site-provided carts for movement to their storage locker.
New clients would park adjacent to the office, lease a new unit, then move their car to
one of the loading bays.
The Plan Commission determined that 13 parking spaces are required for this use, and
55 are provided.
Waste disposal receptacles will remain in the existing enclosure in the north parking lot.
Access to them by waste collection vehicles will not be affected by the renovation
project.
In response to questions from the Commission included the types of items that could be
stored. The will be no residence on the property.

PETITIONER’S SUBMITTAL
Standard Bank and Trust Company, as Trustee under Trust No. 16633, on behalf of
Robert Heilman for Metro Storage, LLC is requesting a special use permit for a self-
storage warehouse at 3220 Touhy Avenue in an M2 Light Industry district and any
other relief that may be discovered during the review of this case.
The submitted Statement of Effects of the Proposed Use is attached to this report.
Metro Storage proposes conversion of the existing building to a 100 % climate
controlled self-storage facility. The majority of the building’s exterior would be re-
imaged with a 1,399 ft2 new office area being created in the most southern portion of
the building to take advantage of the property’s sight lines. They will raise the roof to
create space for installation of a second floor mezzanine covering the entire building
adding approx. 58,241 ft2 to the buildings’ floor area. The additional area will be
required to provide 812 storage units to make the operation economically viable. Total
building floor area is proposed to be 122,482 ft2.
Operation of the facility is coordinated by the Site Manager and sometimes one other
staff person averaging approximately 1.5 staff per day. Operating hours with a
manager on duty will be from 9am to 6pm. Customers can enter the facility with
personalized key codes from 6am to 10pm. The facility will house an array of video
security cameras that will cover virtually 100% of the public areas of the facility and be
monitored from the office or over the web.
The facility will be self-service, meaning that people will pull their cars/trucks in the
overhead door bays, shut the overhead door, and load or unload their belongings onto
site-provided carts for movement to their storage locker. New clients would park
adjacent to the office and lease a new unit then move their car to one of the loading
bays to load/unload.
The parking need for self-storage is fairly low as the average number of trip
generations is approximately 4.5 per hour per. Metro operates 85 locations and their

storage_warehouse_at_3220_Touhy_Avenue.docx

experience indicates the proposed level of parking will easily support the demand. Self-
Storage is a very passive use and will not tax local infrastructure more than it is today.
Waste disposal receptacles will remain in the existing enclosure in the north parking lot.
Access to them by waste collection vehicles will not be affected by the renovation
project.


STAFF ANALYSIS
Staff Comment and Review sheets were sent to all pertinent departments. Staff
comments on the submitted plans were received from the Engineering and Planning
Divisions. All other departments returned the sheets with no comments.


Engineering Division
The Engineering Division is supportive of the request with certain conditions.
The site comments and conditions are included in the site plan approval case for the
planned development, 2015-6P.
Engineering has recommended that the Plan Commission determine that motor vehicle
parking requirement for this use be 13 spaces in case 2015-7P. The parking spaces
provided far exceed the requirement of the proposed uses.


Planning Division
Planning is supportive of the proposed planned development as amended by the
recommendations of the Engineering Division.
There are no outdoor storage spaces for vehicles, boats, trailers, etc. shown on the site
plan. Outdoor storage of any kind would require a separate special use permit.
Although the use is not known for the southwestern portion of the site, there is ample
surplus vehicle parking to accommodate uses with parking ratios above 1:300 as long
as parking within the development is not restricted to specific users.
The use will have minimal impact on traffic and significantly reduce the potential traffic
impact if the building was developed for almost any other use allowed in the district.


Relief
No needed relief was discovered during the review of this case.

 ATTACHMENT A
 Statement of Effects of the Proposed Use
 Petition for Special Use Permit and Site Plan Approval for a
 Self-Service Storage Facility at 3240 W. Touhy Avenue
 (Applicant: Metro Storage LLC)


“State the effects of the proposed use upon the character of the neighborhood, the
property values, traffic conditions, public utilities, storm water detention, and other
matters pertaining to the public health, safety, morals and general welfare of the
community.”
Overview of the Proposed Self-Storage Facility.
The Petitioner, Metro Storage LLC, is proposing to redevelop a major portion of Town
Center Plaza that once was the site of the Wickes Furniture store. The Petitioner is
proposing an adaptive re-use of the existing building into a Class “A” 100% climate-
controlled self-storage facility, a low intensity use that will fit well within the commercial
and light industrial area.
The majority of the building exterior would be re-imaged, including a new office area at
the southern end of the building. The Petitioner will raise the roof to create space for a
second-floor mezzanine, adding an additional 58,421 sq. ft. to the building floor area.
The total building floor area is proposed to be approximately 122,482 sq. ft. The facility
will provide 812 storage units and 55 off-street parking spaces.
Customers may access their storage units with personalized key codes from 6:00 am to
10:00 pm. Office and retail sales hours will be from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm. Operation of
the facility is coordinated by the Site Manager and sometimes one other staff person,
averaging 1.5 staff per day. The facility will use an array of video security cameras that
will cover virtually 100% of the public areas of the facility and will be monitored from the
office or over the internet.
The facility will be self-serving, meaning that customers will drive their vehicles in the
overhead door bays, shut the overhead door, and load or unload their belongings onto
carts for transport to their storage locker. New clients would park adjacent to the office
and lease a new unit, then move their vehicle to one of the loading bays to load or
unload their belongings.
The Petitioner’s redevelopment plan calls for resubdividing the existing property into a
north lot and a south lot: (A) Lot 1, a 119,436 sq. ft. lot fronting Kedzie Avenue
consisting of the existing building and parking areas; and (B) Lot 2, a 43,549 sq. ft. lot
fronting Touhy Avenue adjacent to the North Community Bank parcel that could be sold
or leased for future commercial/restaurant/office development.
The Petitioner is proposing to reduce the number of existing parking spaces from 171
spaces to 55 parking spaces, including 2 handicap spaces. The reduction is parking is
the result of creating Lot 2 and separating it from Lot 1, the self-storage property. The
parking need for self-storage facilities is fairly low, as the average number of trip
generations for a facility of this size is approximately 4.5 vehicle trips per hour. Metro

storage_warehouse_at_3220_Touhy_Avenue.docx

Storage operates 85 locations and its experience indicates the proposed level of
parking supports the demand.
The North Community Bank property at the corner of Touhy Avenue and Kedzie Avenue
is not a part of the Petitioner’s proposal and no alterations will be made to that site or to
its existing access from public roads.
Effects of the Proposed Use.
The proposed reuse and redevelopment of Lot 1 is consistent with, and complimentary
of, the existing land uses and zoning in the area. The proposed reuse and
redevelopment will not interfere with the use and development of neighboring properties
within the Village in accordance with applicable zoning regulations. Land uses in the
area include a variety of long-established industrial properties to the north (M3 zoning),
the North Shore Channel and parkland to the west, the North Community Bank property
to the south at the northwest corner of Touhy Avenue and Kedzie Avenue (B2 zoning),
parkland along the south side of Touhy Avenue (Village of Lincolnwood zoning), and a
long-established single-family residential area to the east, buffered by a bike and
walking path along Kedzie Avenue (City of Chicago zoning).
The adaptive re-use of the long-vacant building into a Class “A” self-storage facility is an
appropriate low-intensity use for the property. This use is complementary to the existing
character of the property and to the businesses and residential areas in the vicinity. As
an adaptive re-use, the scale and location of the existing building will not change. The
project will improve the quality of architecture of the building by updating the exterior
materials and design of the most prominent sections being the east and south
elevations consistent with plans approved by the Appearance Commission. This will
improve the appearance of the property in a way that makes it complimentary to the
established character of the area.
Restoring the site to productive commercial use will positively affect property values in
the neighborhood. The redevelopment of the property will have a positive impact on the
community as a visible building will once again have a tenant that operates a Class ‘A’
facility. Carving out the new Lot 2 creates a new development site that creates an
opportunity for future commercial, retail or office uses.
Self-storage is a low traffic-generating use. Because of this, the proposed facility will
have minimal impact on area traffic, and will create fewer vehicle trips per hour than
many businesses that might otherwise locate at the site. The use will generate
approximately 4.5 vehicle trips per hour on weekdays and weekends. Access to the
self-storage facility and to the future development parcel will be provided through the
four existing access points on Kedzie Avenue and Touhy Avenue. Kedzie Avenue will
provide the principle access for the self-storage facility.
The Petitioner is providing 55 off-street parking spaces including 2 handicap spaces,
which is more than adequate to service the parking demand. The Village has required
other self-storage facilities to provide parking at a ratio of 1 space per 100 storage units.
This facility will have 812 storage units and a 1,399 sq. ft. office area. The Village likely
would require a total of 14 off-street parking spaces.


VOSDOCS-#472334-v1-Master_Plan_Commission_Report_for_2015-8P__SUP_for_self-
storage_warehouse_at_3220_Touhy_Avenue.docx


 10 of 15
The Lot 2 future development parcel is large enough to accommodate a variety of
commercial/retail/restaurant uses. The Petitioner’s site plan provides an example of
future development of a one-story 10,800 sq. ft. office/commercial building with 36
parking spaces provided at a ratio of 1 space per 300 sq. ft. of building area.
Existing sidewalks along Touhy Avenue and Kedzie Avenue provide safe pedestrian
access to and from the site. Crosswalks will be striped across the access drives and
between adjacent uses.
The site is served by existing public facilities and services. Self-storage generates
negligible amounts of effluent, with low impact on local water and sanitary systems.
Public utilities will not be unduly burdened by the development.
No additional impervious area is being added to the property. Stormwater will be
conveyed and controlled by existing facilities. Stormwater drainage will not negatively
impact neighboring properties.
The public health, safety, morals and general welfare in general will not be unduly
burdened by the development.
Compliance with Zoning Code; Requested Exceptions.
The proposed self-storage facility on Lot 1 complies with or exceeds all of the provisions
of the Zoning Code, with two exceptions:
First, Zoning Code relief from the front yard setback is requested because the
resubdivision will create a new Lot 1 which will only be adjacent to Kedzie Avenue,
causing Kedzie Avenue to become the front yard of Lot 1. The Petitioner is doing an
adaptive re-use that does not alter the building footprint. The size of the existing yard
will not be altered. What is currently a side yard will become a front yard due to the
splitting of an existing single lot fronting Touhy Avenue into two lots: Lot 1 which fronts
on Kedzie Avenue, and Lot 2 which fronts on Touhy Avenue. For Lot 1, a front yard of
25 feet is required under Sec. 118-173(2). The Petitioner requests a front yard variance
of 19 feet for a front yard of 6.0 feet from the east property line of Lot 1.
 Second, Zoning Code relief is sought for the number of parkway trees. Under
Sec. 118-232(b), parkway trees shall be planted 30 feet apart whenever possible. The
Petitioner proposes a total of 13 parkway trees along the east side of Lot 1, rather than
18 parkway trees as would be required by the code’s 30-foot offset. The parkway along
north Kedzie Avenue adjacent to the east side of the existing building is 561 feet. 18
trees at a 30-foot offset are required by code, but only 13 can be provided due to the
location of driveways and the location of existing healthy trees. The Petitioner
proposes to retain 10 existing trees and add 3 trees in this parkway area.

Discussion and 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. Notice was reviewed and ruled to be proper
and correct.

All cases were discussed as a whole since they involve the same site. However, each case was
voted on separately.

Robert Heilman, Vice President of development for Metro Storage and David Meek, attorney
from Becker Gurian presented the cases. Metro Storage is proposing to take the existing vacant
building and expand it vertically for a self-storage mini warehouse. It will have only internal
storage. No vehicle storage will take place outside.
 There will be 3 elevators to accommodate the three areas for loading. They will raise the roof
for a mezzanine level, re-face the existing building and re-do the parking lot which needs
cosmetic attention but seems to be in good condition. The petitioner displayed a floor plan
showing the first floor having larger storage units than the 2nd level. The Appearance
Commission approved the elevations at its January 14, 2015 meeting.

The chairman asked if it would be a 24/7 facility. Mr. Heilman stated that the facility is staffed
from 9 AM to 6 PM and customers have PINS for access from 6 AM to 10 PM. They operate 7
days a week. The facility is fully secured with cameras which are monitored on and off site.
The facility \is very well lit as well.

The chairman also inquired if they monitor what types of things can be stored. The petitioner
answered that the manager makes a check of items as clients initially come in. They have a strict
lease. No chemicals or hazardous materials are allowed. Twice a day the area is patrolled for
smells or noises not allowed.

A commissioner asked if firearms can be stored or brought in. Mr. Heilman stated that he wasn’t
sure if anything has been established since the laws passed but will find out.

Another commissioner asked if the manager would be residing on the premises. Mr. Heilman
stated that in the newer facilities, they do not have a residence on site.

Another commissioner wanted confirmation that the bank is a separate parcel even though it is
wrapped as part of the planned development. The bank site is a separate parcel and will remain
as is. The 1 acre parcel of the property that has been flagged for future use will be split off and
marketed separately.

He also inquired if notice was sent out to Chicago residents bordering the site. Mr. Meek
answered in the affirmative.

storage_warehouse_at_3220_Touhy_Avenue.docx

Staff summarized the staff reports and asked that they all be entered into the record as written.
Staff noted a typo error in the legal notice and wanted to clarify that for Cases 2015-5P, 6P, and
8P, the requested zoning classification should be M2 Light Industry instead of the incorrectly
listed M3. The M2 zone is appropriate for the site and is a good buffer between the adjacent M3
Industry and close by residential districts. Due to increased traffic on Touhy Avenue, staff is
requesting a 17-foot dedication of land to IDOT for the future expansion and widening of the
sub-standard bridge at Touhy Avenue. There also needs to be a cross easement to allow access to
Kedzie Avenue through Lot 1.

Mr. Meek added that there is an existing declaration of easement from 1991 which provides
access to the site. He assured the commission that it would be shown on the plat prior to the
Village Board meeting.

The Engineering Division determined that 13 vehicle parking spaces should be provided based
on 1% of the number of units and a 1/300 ratio would be used for the office and retail area. The
entire site is a planned development and therefore will have shared parking.

The existing site plan review was good and parking was adequate. There are 3 buildings on site
and the proposal is for 3 buildings as well. The previous ordinances will be repealed and all
conditions carried forward to a new planned development ordinance. The bank site will be
separated out and have its own ordinance.

Mr. Meek voiced concern over the request for removal of the southern apron and replacement
with sidewalk and landscaping. The petitioner wishes to retain it for an access drive for their
customers because it is located near one of the loading areas. The commission did not have any
objection.

The petitioner is in agreement with all conditions. They worked well with staff.


Recommendation and Voting

Individual motions were made to approve the requests for a subdivision, zoning map amendment
from B2 to M2, site plan approval, a parking determination of 13 vehicle parking spaces and a
special use permit for a self-storage warehouse (112 units) in an M2 zoning district as all self-
storage uses are special uses in M2.

PLAN COMMISSION ANALYSIS
At its April 2, 2015 meeting, the Plan Commission heard the request of the Village of
Skokie, on behalf of John McLinden and Floral Avenue, LLC, as contract purchasers for
an 8 lot subdivision of the property commonly known as 8063, 8103, and 8117 Floral
Avenue along with the west half of 8110 Lincoln Avenue in a CX Core Mixed-Use
district. In addition, relief is requested from §94-5(a)(5)e. of the Village Code to
provide no triangular dedications at the intersections of the alleys rather than the
required 15-foot triangular dedications. The applicant intends to construct 8 detached
residences within the subject site.
This case was continued from its original hearing date of October 17, 2013 because the
Village desired to reconfigure the initial proposed subdivision in order to create a 20
foot-wide alley along the east side of the proposed residences but did not own a large
enough portion of land in that area at the time to do so. Subsequent to the initial Plan
Commission meeting, staff negotiated with the property owners of 8104-8106 and
8118-8120 Lincoln to acquire the land needed for the alley.
A 33 foot-wide by 44 foot-long portion of land to the west of proposed Lots 2 and 3 and
lying within Floral Avenue will be dedicated as right-of-way. There is no evidence that
this portion of Floral Avenue was previously dedicated.

The Plan Commission concurred with Staff’s recommendation to grant the special use
permit approval subject to conditions.


A commissioner asked staff why there were large plastic pipes being stored on the
subject site. Staff responded that this area was being used to temporarily store the
pipes that would eventually be installed as part of the underground stormwater
detention facility behind the Phase I residences.

PETITIONER’S SUBMITTAL
The petitioners are requesting to subdivide 2 existing lots and portions of 3 additional
lots into 8 new lots and dedicate land for the purpose of adding right-of-way for Floral
Avenue and constructing 20-foot-wide public alleys to the north, south, and east of the
subject site. In addition, relief is requested from §94-5(a)(5)e. of the Village Code to
provide no triangular dedications at the intersections of the alleys rather than the
required 15-foot triangular dedications. The applicant intends to construct 8 detached
residences within the subject site.
This case was continued from its original hearing date of October 17, 2013 because the
Village desired to reconfigure the initial proposed subdivision in order to create a 20
foot wide alley along the east side of the proposed residences but did not own a large
enough portion of land in that area at the time to do so.
Subsequent to the Plan Commission meeting, staff negotiated with the property owners
of 8104-8106 and 8118-8120 Lincoln to acquire the land needed for the alley. The west
4 feet of 8104-8106 Lincoln was conveyed to the Village in exchange for the east 20
feet of the Village-owned property at 8063 Floral that was required in order to construct
a parking lot off the proposed alley for the day care facilities at 8064 and 8106 Lincoln.
The west 5.90 feet of 8118-8120 Lincoln was conveyed to the Village in exchange for a
4.58 foot-wide strip of land to the north of the 8118-8120 Lincoln property that was
required for a driveway.
A 33 foot-wide by 44 foot-long portion of land to the west of proposed Lots 2 and 3 and
lying within Floral Avenue will be dedicated as right-of-way. There is no evidence that
this portion of Floral Avenue was dedicated by the existing subdivision.


STAFF ANALYSIS
Comments
Staff Comment and Review sheets were sent to all pertinent departments. Staff
comments on the subject case were received from the Engineering Division. All other
departments returned the sheets with no comments.

 Engineering Division
 Engineering staff supports the proposed subdivision and states that the dedication
 of the alley will be beneficial to the new residences, which will not have direct
 individual vehicular access, and will provide good traffic circulation for motorists and
 vehicles providing services to properties on the block.

 Planning Division
 The Planning Division supports the proposed subdivision. The subdivision will meet
 all requirements of the Village Code and Map Data Policy, except where relief is
 requested from §94-6(a)(5)e. of the Skokie Village Code because the required 15-

Lincoln Avenue
 2 of 4
 foot by 15-foot triangular dedications are not being provided at the northeast corner
 of Lot 1 and the southeast corner of Lot 8, where the east-west alleys intersect with
 the north-south alley. Staff supports this relief because in the long-term, the east-
 west alleys may not be needed due to realignment with future redevelopment on
 this block. The associated planned development (case 2013-32P) required
 undedicated 10-foot sight distance triangles at both intersections.
 Additionally, the portion of the northern 44.00 feet of the 8110 Lincoln Avenue
 property that extends 33.00 feet into Floral Avenue must be dedicated as a public
 street since the underlying subdivision never dedicated the rights-of-way in this
 area.
 The Floral Avenue Subdivision Phase II plat must be revised to renumber the lots
 from 1 to 8, remove the notch from the northeast corner of the subject to show it as
 being a dedicated alley, and adjust the depths of Lots 5 through 8 to show that they
 are 85.00 feet deep.

STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff recommends that the petitioners’ request to subdivide the subject site be
APPROVED subject to conditions listed below, and that relief be granted from §94-
5(a)(5)e. of the Village Code to provide no triangular dedications at the intersections of
the alleys rather than the required 15-foot triangular dedications.

RECOMMENDED SUBDIVISION CONDITIONS
 1. Prior to the hearing of the subject case before the Board of Trustees, the Floral
 Avenue Subdivision Phase II plat must be revised to renumber the lots from 1 to
 8, remove the notch from the northeast corner of the subject to show it as being
 a dedicated alley, and adjust the depths of Lots 5 through 8 to show that they
 are 85.00 feet deep.
 2. The property must be subdivided pursuant to the Floral Avenue Subdivision
 Phase II, dated <to be determined>, and as may be further revised with the
 approval of the Village Manager, or designee, and Corporation Counsel.
 3. Upon the passage of the ordinance by the Board of Trustees, the Mylar of the
 Floral Avenue Subdivision Phase II must be submitted to the Village with all
 signatures other than Village staff or elected officials.
 4. The Floral Avenue Subdivision Phase II shall be effective upon its recording by
 the Village in the Office of the Recorder of Deeds of Cook County, Illinois.
 5. All monuments must be set no later than 1 year after the date of the recording
 of the plat.
 6. The petitioner must submit to the Planning Division electronic files of the plat of
 subdivision in approved and finalized form. The files must be scaled drawing
 files in AutoCAD format (version 2010 or older). The drawings must be

Case Description

2013-31P – Subdivision: 8063, 8103 & 8117 Floral Avenue along with the west half
 of 8110 Lincoln Avenue
The Village of Skokie, on behalf of John McLinden and Floral Avenue, LLC, as contract
purchasers, requests an 8-lot subdivision of the property commonly known as 8063,
8103, and 8117 Floral Avenue along with the west half of 8110 Lincoln Avenue in a CX
Core Mixed-Use district. Relief is requested from §94-5(a)(5)e. of the Village Code to

case.

PINs: 10-21-409-012-0000, 10-21-409-013-0000, 10-21-409-021-0000, and parts of PINs
10-21-409-010-0000 and 10-21-409-011-0000.

Discussion and 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. Notice was reviewed and
ruled to be proper and correct.

John McLinden of Streetscape Development presented the case. This case was originally
heard at the October 17, 2013 Plan Commission meeting requesting to subdivide 2
existing lots and portions of 3 additional lots along with land dedications to add right-of-
way to Floral Avenue and to construct public alleys. They are in the process of
completing a new development on Floral Avenue with 12 homes on the west side which
are all sold and 8 homes on the east side.

Staff summarized their report and requested that it be accepted into the record as written.
The Village of Skokie has been in the negotiation process of acquiring and exchanging
Village owned land with adjacent property owners, Al’s Cycle Shop, 8118-8120 Lincoln
Avenue, and Swift Child Care, 8104-8106 Lincoln Avenue, to create the 20-foot alley.

The plat of subdivision must be revised to renumber Lots 1-8 and to clean up the notch at
the northeast corner and adjust the depth for Lots 5-8 to show they are 85 feet deep.
471995 Plan Commission meeting minutes 4/2/15 Case 2013-31P
The petitioner must request relief not to provide the required 15-foot triangular
dedications at the intersections where the east-west and north-south alleys meet because
the east-west alleys may not be needed due to realignment with future development on
the block. Garages will be set back for visibility.

A commissioner asked about the huge sewer pipes that are visible on Floral Avenue. Mr.
McLinden stated that they are being stored temporarily while land is being excavated on
the west side so that they can be put in place for detention between the houses and
garages behind Phase I of the development.
.
Recommendation and Voting

A motion was made to approve the requests for an 8-lot subdivision and relief for not
providing the 15-foot triangular dedications at the intersections of the alleys. The vote
was 9-0-0.
