The owners of Sweet Basil Café, Denise and Demitri Karanus have extensive restaurant
business experience and most recently owned two Wild Berry restaurants in Peoria and
Bloomingdale. The menu at Sweet Basil Café emphasizes family recipes and fresh
ingredients to serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. The ultimate goal is nothing less than
becoming the best spot for breakfast, lunch and dinner in communities they serve.
 According to the menu available at other locations, the restaurant will offer classic
American food staples with some Greek influences. The owners estimate that an average
lunch and dinner order would cost around $18 – and, as the menu notes, they will offer
daily specials. While the owners touted family recipes and fresh ingredients as major
selling points, they also touted customer service — something that they believe they
would be able to do by carefully selecting and training staff.

Sweet Basil Café’s renovation plans include implementing aesthetic and functional
improvements to the exterior of the building, including the repair and replacement of
existing awnings on the north and west signs, painting the exterior, new channel letter
sign, an LED message center, scrape / paint the exterior, repaint the exterior, and repair
stucco and dryvit (see attached elevation which has been approved by Village staff). The
total lowest cost estimate for exterior improvements is $244,500 and, of that, the program
maximum amount of $20,000 is deemed eligible for reimbursement for this exterior work
per the SEP guidelines for restaurants and retail uses.

The planned improvements to the interior of the building which are eligible for a grant
reimbursement include the replacement of all flooring, re-painting the interior, refinishing
woodwork, reupholster all seating, install new lighting, refinish tabletops and table bases,
replace countertops, replace existing and install new high efficiency lighting. The owner has
received two bids for the major components of the interior/exterior work. The lowest
estimate for the interior work to be done totaled approximately $143,000 of which $20,000 is
deemed eligible for reimbursement and the maximum architectural fees to be reimbursed
totals $3,000. The total Village SEP grant will not exceed $43,000, including architectural
design fees. Funding will only be transferred to the owner following completion of all work,
final inspections, and submittal of all required documentation. The applicant is aware that he
will need to provide copies of all bids, contracts, contractor invoices, paid receipts, cancelled
checks and waiver-of-liens as proof of payment prior to reimbursement by the Village.

I respectfully request Board approval of a Commercial Corridor SEP rehabilitation grant of a
maximum of $43,000 to be issued to Sweet Basil Café Skokie. Mr. and Mrs. Karanus along
with Len Becker will be present at the October 22, 2019 meeting to respond to any questions.
Thank you.

 AN ORDINANCE providing for the issuance of not to exceed
 $35,000,000 General Obligation Bonds, Series 2019 of the Village
 of Skokie, Cook County, Illinois, authorizing the execution of a
 bond order, providing for the levy and collection of a direct annual
 tax sufficient for the payment of the principal of and interest on said
 bonds, authorizing the sale of said bonds to the purchaser thereof
 and providing for the execution of a Direction to Redeem and an
 Escrow Agreement.

 PREAMBLES

 WHEREAS:

 A. The Village of Skokie, Cook County, Illinois (the “Village”), has a population in

 excess of 25,000, and pursuant to the provisions of the 1970 Constitution of the State of Illinois

 and particularly Article VII, Section 6(a) thereof, is a home rule unit and as such may exercise any

 power or perform any function pertaining to its government and affairs, including, but not limited

 to, the power to tax and to incur debt.

 B. Pursuant to the home rule provisions of Section 6, the Village has the power to

 incur debt payable from ad valorem property tax receipts or from any other lawful source and

 maturing within 40 years from the time it is incurred without prior referendum approval.

 C. The Village has heretofore issued the following outstanding and validly subsisting

 and unpaid general obligation bonds:

 Taxable General Obligation Bonds, Series 2009B
 (Build America Bonds – Direct Payment) (the “Series 2009B Bonds”)

 Original Principal Amount: $18,420,000
 Dated: August 13, 2009
 Originally Due Serially: December 1, 2017 to 2024,
 inclusive and Term Bond Due
 December 1, 2029
 Amount eligible to be refunded: $15,160,000




4828-5588-5480.3
 Series 2009B Bonds to be refunded mature or are subject to mandatory sinking fund

 redemption on December 1 in the years, in the amounts, and bear interest at the rates as follows:

 Year Amount ($) Rate of Interest (%)

 2020 1,185,000.00 4.820
 2021 1,245,000.00 5.020
 2022 1,305,000.00 5.120
 2023 1,375,000.00 5.220

 2027 1,715,000.00 6.040
 2028 1,820,000.00 6.040
 2029 1,930,000.00 6.040

 all of which bonds are subject to redemption on any date, on or after December 1, 2019 at a

 redemption price of par plus accrued interest to the date of redemption (the bonds of such series

 so subject to redemption being the “Prior Bonds”);

 D. For the maturities which remain outstanding, interest rates may currently be more

 favorable in the market for tax-exempt municipal bonds than they were at the time the Prior Bonds

 were issued, and it may be possible to refund the Prior Bonds to achieve a net aggregate dollar and

 present value savings.

 E. Pursuant to the Act as defined below, the Village is authorized to issue general

 obligation bonds to accomplish the refunding, including payment of related costs of issuance of

 bonds and of such refunding (all being the “Refunding”), of Prior Bonds, and it is deemed

 necessary and desirable to provide for the issuance of not to exceed $16,000,000 principal amount

 general obligation bonds for such purpose and for the purpose of realizing such net debt service

 savings.

 F. The Mayor and Board of Trustees of the Village (the “Corporate Authorities”) do

 hereby determine that it is advisable and in the best interests of the Village to borrow not to exceed

 2
4828-5588-5480.3
 $16,000,000 at this time pursuant to the Act for the purpose of paying the costs of the Refunding

 and in evidence of such borrowing, to issue full faith and credit bonds of the Village in not to

 exceed such principal amount.

 G. In addition to the Refunding, the Corporate Authorities have determined it is

 necessary and convenient for the public health, safety and welfare to provide for various corporate

 capital improvements to the existing Skokie Public Library, including specifically, the renovation

 and equipping of the Skokie Public Library (the “Library Improvements”) in and for the Village,

 and to pay expenses incidental to such improvements and costs of issuance of bonds for such

 purpose (such Library Improvements and related expenses and costs being the “Project”) at an

 estimated cost of not more than $19,000,000 and, there being no funds on hand and allocable to

 the purpose, the Corporate Authorities have determined it is necessary and convenient to borrow

 not to exceed said sum of $19,000,000 at this time pursuant to the Act and, in evidence of such

 borrowing, to issue general obligation bonds of the Village in not to exceed such principal amount.

 H. The board of trustees of the Skokie Public Library (the “Library Board”) has caused

 a plan to be prepared and an estimate to be made of the cost of the Library Improvements and

 adopted a resolution approving such plan and cost estimate, all in accordance with Section 5-1 of

 the Illinois Local Library Act.

 I. The Library Board has transmitted a copy of such resolution and its proceedings

 and determinations relating to the Library Improvements to the Corporate Authorities.

 J. It is necessary for the purpose of providing financing for the Refunding and the

 Project to authorize that certain sums be borrowed at this time, and in evidence of such

 indebtedness, the hereinafter defined Bonds of the Village be issued in the aggregate principal

 amount of not to exceed $35,000,000, and that such indebtedness be incurred in accordance with


 3
4828-5588-5480.3
 the Act as hereinafter defined, and without submitting the question of incurring such indebtedness

 to the electors of the Village for their approval.

 Section 2. Incorporation of Preambles. The Corporate Authorities hereby find that all

 of the recitals contained in the preambles to this Ordinance are true, correct and complete and do

 incorporate them into this Ordinance by this reference.

 Section 3. Determination To Issue Bonds. It is necessary and in the best interests of

 the Village to provide financing for the Refunding and for the Project, to pay all necessary or

 advisable related costs, and to borrow money and issue the Bonds for such purposes. It is hereby

 found and determined that such borrowing of money is for a proper public purpose or purposes

 and is in the public interest, and is authorized pursuant to the Act; and these findings and

 determinations shall be deemed conclusive.

4828-5588-5480.3
 Section 4. Bond Details. A. For the purpose of providing financing for the Refunding

 and for the Project, there shall be issued and sold the Bonds in the aggregate principal amount of

 not to exceed $35,000,000. The principal amount of the Bonds issued for the purpose of refunding

 the Prior Bonds (the “Refunding Portion of the Bonds”) shall not exceed $16,000,000. The

 principal amount of the bonds issued for the purpose of financing the Project (the “Project Portion

 of the Bonds”) shall not exceed $19,000,000..

 B. The Bonds may each be designated “General Obligation Bond, Series 2019” or

 such other name or names or series designations as the Designated Officers may find necessary

 and advisable and as so provided in the relevant Bond Order. The Bonds shall be dated on or

 before the date of issuance as may be set forth in a relevant Bond Order (the “Dated Date”); and

 each Bond shall also bear the date of authentication thereof. The Bonds shall be fully registered

 and in Book Entry Form, shall be in denominations of $5,000 or integral multiples thereof (but no

 single Bond shall represent principal maturing on more than one date), and shall be numbered

 consecutively in such fashion as shall be determined by the Bond Registrar. The Bonds shall

 become due and payable serially or as Term Bonds (subject to the right of prior redemption) on

 December 1 of the years and in the amounts and bearing interest at the rates percent per annum as

 shall be provided in the relevant Bond Order, except that no Bond shall mature on a date which is

 later than December 1, 2039, or bear interest at a rate percent per annum which is in excess of five

 and one half percent (5.50%) per annum. In addition, the minimum net present value savings from

 the Refunding Portion of the Bonds shall be not less than two percent (2%). Further conditions of

 sale and delivery are set forth below in Section 16.

 C. Each Bond shall bear interest from the later of its Dated Date as defined herein or

 from the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for,


 9
4828-5588-5480.3
 until the principal amount of such Bond is paid or duly provided for, such interest (computed upon

 the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months) being payable on June 1 and December 1 of

 each year, commencing on the date provided in the relevant Bond Order. Interest on each Bond

 shall be paid by check or draft of the Bond Registrar, payable upon presentation thereof in lawful

 money of the United States of America, to the person in whose name such Bond is registered at

 the close of business on the applicable Record Date and mailed to the registered owner of the Bond

 as shown in the Bond Registrar or at such other address furnished in writing by such Registered

 Owner, or as otherwise may be agreed with the Depository for so long as the Depository or its

 nominee is the registered owner as of a given Record Date. The principal of the Bonds shall be

 payable in lawful money of the United States of America upon presentation thereof at the office

 of the Bond Registrar maintained for the purpose in Chicago, Illinois, or at successor Bond

 Register or locality.

 Section 5. Registration of Bonds; Persons Treated as Owners. The Village shall cause

 the Bond Register for the registration and for the transfer of the Bonds as provided in this

 Ordinance to be kept at the office of the Bond Registrar maintained for such purpose, which is

 hereby constituted and appointed the registrar of the Village for the Bonds. The Village shall

 prepare, and the Bond Registrar or such other agent as the Village may designate shall keep

 custody of, multiple Bond blanks executed by the Village for use in the transfer and exchange of

 Bonds. Subject to the provisions of this Ordinance relating to the Bonds in Book Entry Form, any

 Bond may be transferred or exchanged, but only in the manner, subject to the limitations, and upon

 payment of the charges as set forth in this Ordinance. Upon surrender for transfer or exchange of

 any Bond at the office of the Bond Registrar maintained for the purpose, duly endorsed by or

 accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer or exchange in form satisfactory


 10
4828-5588-5480.3
 to the Bond Registrar and duly executed by the registered owner or an attorney for such owner

 duly authorized in writing, the Village shall execute and the Bond Registrar shall authenticate, date

 and deliver in the name of the transferee or transferees or, in the case of an exchange, the registered

 owner, a new fully registered Bond or Bonds of like tenor, of the same maturity, bearing the same

 interest rate, of authorized denominations, for a like aggregate principal amount. The Bond

 Registrar shall not be required to transfer or exchange any Bond during the period beginning at the

 close of business on the 15th day of the month next preceding any interest payment date on such

 Bond and ending at the opening of business on such interest payment date, nor to transfer or

 exchange any Bond after notice calling such Bond for redemption has been mailed, nor during a

 period of fifteen (15) days next preceding mailing of a notice of redemption of any Bonds. The

 execution by the Village of any fully registered Bond shall constitute full and due authorization of

 such Bond, and the Bond Registrar shall thereby be authorized to authenticate, date and deliver

 such Bond; provided, however, the principal amount of Bonds of each maturity authenticated by

 the Bond Registrar shall not at any one time exceed the authorized principal amount of Bonds for

 such maturity less the amount of such Bonds which have been paid. The person in whose name

 any Bond shall be registered shall be deemed and regarded as the absolute owner thereof for all

 purposes, and payment of the principal of or interest on any Bond shall be made only to or upon

 the order of the registered owner thereof or his legal representative. All such payments shall be

 valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon such Bond to the extent of the sum

 or sums so paid. No service charge shall be made to any registered owner of Bonds for any transfer

 or exchange of Bonds, but the Village or the Bond Registrar may require payment of a sum

 sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with

 any transfer or exchange of Bonds.


 11
4828-5588-5480.3
 Section 6. Book Entry Provisions. The Bonds shall be initially issued in the form of a

 separate single fully registered Bond for each maturity bearing the same interest rate. Upon initial

 issuance, the ownership of each such Bond shall be registered in the Bond Register in the name of

 the Depository or a designee or nominee of the Depository (such depository or nominee being the

 “Book Entry Owner”). Except as otherwise expressly provided, all of the outstanding Bonds from

 time to time shall be registered in the Bond Register in the name of the Book Entry Owner (and

 accordingly in Book Entry Form as such term is used in this Ordinance). Any Village officer, as

 representative of the Village, is hereby authorized, empowered, and directed to execute and deliver

 or utilize a previously executed and delivered Letter of Representations or Blanket Letter of

 Representations (either being the “Letter of Representations”) substantially in the form common

 in the industry, or with such changes therein as the officer executing the Letter of Representations

 on behalf of the Village shall approve, his or her execution thereof to constitute conclusive

 evidence of approval of such changes, as shall be necessary to effectuate Book Entry Form.

 Without limiting the generality of the authority given with respect to entering into such Letter of

 Representations, it may contain provisions relating to (a) payment procedures, (b) transfers of the

 Bonds or of beneficial interests therein, (c) redemption notices and procedures unique to the

 Depository, (d) additional notices or communications, and (e) amendment from time to time to

 conform with changing customs and practices with respect to securities industry transfer and

 payment practices. With respect to Bonds registered in the Bond Register in the name of the Book

 Entry Owner, none of the Village, any Village officer, or the Bond Registrar shall have any

 responsibility or obligation to any broker-dealer, bank, or other financial institution for which the

 Depository holds Bonds from time to time as securities depository (each such broker dealer, bank,

 or other financial institution being referred to herein as a “Depository Participant”) or to any


 12
4828-5588-5480.3
 person on behalf of whom such a Depository Participant holds an interest in the Bonds. Without

 limiting the meaning of the immediately preceding sentence, the Village, any Village officer, and

 the Bond Registrar shall have no responsibility or obligation with respect to (a) the accuracy of the

 records of the Depository, the Book Entry Owner, or any Depository Participant with respect to

 any ownership interest in the Bonds, (b) the delivery to any Depository Participant or any other

 person, other than a registered owner of a Bond as shown in the Bond Register or as otherwise

 expressly provided in the Letter of Representations, of any notice with respect to the Bonds,

 including any notice of redemption, or (c) the payment to any Depository Participant or any other

 person, other than a registered owner of a Bond as shown in the Bond Register, of any amount

 with respect to principal of or interest on the Bonds. No person other than a registered owner of a

 Bond as shown in the Bond Register shall receive a Bond certificate with respect to any Bond. In

 the event that (a) the Village determines that the Depository is incapable of discharging its

 responsibilities described herein and in the Letter of Representations, (b) the agreement among the

 Village, the Bond Registrar, and the Depository evidenced by the Letter of Representations shall

 be terminated for any reason, or (c) the Village determines that it is in the best interests of the

 Village or of the beneficial owners of the Bonds either that they be able to obtain certificated Bonds

 or that another depository is preferable, the Village shall notify the Depository and the Depository

 shall notify the Depository Participants of the availability of Bond certificates, and the Bonds shall

 no longer be restricted to being registered in the Bond Register in the name of the Book Entry

 Owner. Alternatively, at such time, the Village may determine that the Bonds shall be registered

 in the name of and deposited with a successor depository operating a system accommodating Book

 Entry Form, as may be acceptable to the Village, or such depository’s agent or designee, but if the

 Village does not select such alternate book entry system, then the Bonds shall be registered in


 13
4828-5588-5480.3
 whatever name or names registered owners of Bonds transferring or exchanging Bonds shall

 designate, in accordance with the provisions of this Ordinance.

 Section 7. Execution; Authentication. The Bonds shall be executed on behalf of the

 Village by the manual or duly authorized facsimile signature of its Mayor and attested by the

 manual or duly authorized facsimile signature of its Village Clerk, as they may determine, and

 shall be impressed or imprinted with the corporate seal or facsimile seal of the Village. In case

 any such officer whose signature shall appear on any Bond shall cease to be such officer before

 the delivery of such Bond, such signature shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes,

 the same as if such officer had remained in office until delivery. All Bonds shall have thereon a

 certificate of authentication, substantially in the form provided, duly executed by the Bond

 Registrar as authenticating agent of the Village and showing the date of authentication. No Bond

 shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose or be entitled to any security or benefit under this

 Ordinance unless and until such certificate of authentication shall have been duly executed by the

 Bond Registrar by manual signature, and such certificate of authentication upon any such Bond

 shall be conclusive evidence that such Bond has been authenticated and delivered under this

 Ordinance.

 Section 8. Term Bonds; Mandatory Redemption. The Bonds may be subject to

 mandatory redemption (as Term Bonds) as provided in the Bond Order. Bonds designated as Term

 Bonds shall be made subject to mandatory redemption by operation of the Bond Fund at a price of

 not to exceed par and accrued interest, without premium, on December 1 of the years and in the

 amounts as shall be determined in the Bond Order. The Village covenants that it will redeem Term

 Bonds pursuant to the mandatory redemption requirement for such Term Bonds. Proper provision




 14
4828-5588-5480.3
 for mandatory redemption having been made, the Village covenants that the Term Bonds so

 selected for redemption shall be payable as at maturity.

 Section 9. Effects of Purchase or Optional Redemption of Term Bonds. If the Village

 redeems pursuant to optional redemption as may be provided for the Bonds or purchases Term

 Bonds of any maturity and cancels the same from Bond Moneys as hereinafter described, then an

 amount equal to the principal amount of Term Bonds so redeemed or purchased shall be deducted

 from the mandatory redemption requirements provided for Term Bonds of such maturity, first, in

 the current year of such requirement, until the requirement for the current year has been fully met,

 and then in any order of such Term Bonds as due at maturity or subject to mandatory redemption

 in any year, as the Village shall determine. If the Village redeems pursuant to optional redemption

 as may be provided or purchases Term Bonds of any maturity and cancels the same from moneys

 other than Bond Moneys, then an amount equal to the principal amount of Term Bonds so

 redeemed or purchased shall be deducted from the amount of such Term Bonds as due at maturity

 or subject to mandatory redemption requirement in any year, as the Village shall determine.

 Section 10. Optional Redemption. As designated in the Bond Order, Bonds may be

 made subject to redemption prior to maturity at the option of the Village, from any available funds,

 in whole or in part, on any date specified, and if in part, in any order of maturity (and, if applicable,

 in any order of mandatory redemption payments) as selected by the Village, and if less than an

 entire maturity, in integral multiples of $5,000, selected by lot by the Bond Registrar, and as

 applicable to any mandatory redemption requirement of Term Bonds, if any, as the Village shall

 determine at the redemption price of not to exceed 103% or such lesser percentage as is specified

 in the Bond Order of the principal amount redeemed plus accrued interest to the date fixed for




 15
4828-5588-5480.3
 redemption. As provided in the Bond Order, some portion or all of the Bonds may be made not

 subject to optional redemption.

 Section 11. Redemption Procedure. Bonds subject to redemption shall be identified,

 notice given, and paid and redeemed pursuant to the procedures as follows:

 A. Notice to Registrar. For a mandatory redemption, unless otherwise notified by the

 Village, the Bond Registrar will proceed on behalf of the Village as its agent to provide for the

 mandatory redemption of such Term Bonds without any further order or direction hereunder or

 otherwise. For an optional redemption, the Village shall, at least 45 days prior to a redemption

 date (unless a shorter time period shall be satisfactory to the Bond Registrar), notify the Bond

 Registrar of such redemption date and of the maturities and principal amounts of Bonds to be

 redeemed, and, if applicable, the effect of any partial redemption of Term Bonds on the mandatory

 redemption of such bonds.

 B. Selection of Bonds within a Maturity. For purposes of any redemption of less than

 all of the Bonds of a single series and single maturity, the particular Bonds or portions of Bonds

 to be redeemed shall be selected by lot by the Bond Registrar for the Bonds of such maturity by

 such method of lottery as the Bond Registrar shall deem fair and appropriate; provided, that such

 lottery shall provide for the selection for redemption of Bonds or portions thereof so that any

 $5,000 Bond or $5,000 portion of a Bond shall be as likely to be called for redemption as any other

 such $5,000 Bond or $5,000 portion. The Bond Registrar shall make such selection (1) upon or

 prior to the time of the giving of official notice of redemption, or (2) in the event of a refunding or

 defeasance, upon advice from the Village that certain Bonds have been refunded or defeased and

 are no longer outstanding.




 16
4828-5588-5480.3
 C. Official Notice of Redemption. The Bond Registrar shall promptly notify the

 Village in writing of the Bonds or portions of Bonds selected for redemption and, in the case of

 any Bond selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Unless

 waived by the registered owner of Bonds to be redeemed, official notice of any such redemption

 shall be given by the Bond Registrar on behalf of the Village by mailing the redemption notice by

 first class U.S. mail not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for

 redemption to each registered owner of the Bond or Bonds to be redeemed at the address shown

 on the Bond Register or at such other address as is furnished in writing by such registered owner

 to the Bond Registrar. All official notices of redemption shall include the name of the Bonds and

 at least the information as follows:

 (1) the redemption date;

 (2) the redemption price;

 (3) if less than all of the outstanding Bonds of a particular maturity are

 to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption of Bonds within

 such maturity, the respective principal amounts) of the Bonds to be redeemed;

 (4) a statement that on the redemption date the redemption price will

 become due and payable upon each such Bond or portion thereof called for redemption and

 that interest thereon shall cease to accrue from and after said date; and

 (5) the place where such Bonds are to be surrendered for payment of the

 redemption price, which place of payment shall be the office of the Bond Registrar

 designated for that purpose.

 D. Conditional Redemption. Unless moneys sufficient to pay the redemption price of

 the Bonds to be redeemed shall have been received by the Bond Registrar prior to the giving of


 17
4828-5588-5480.3
 such notice of redemption, such notice may, at the option of the Village, state that said redemption

 shall be conditional upon the receipt of such moneys by the Bond Registrar on or prior to the date

 fixed for redemption. If such moneys are not received, such notice shall be of no force and effect,

 the Village shall not redeem such Bonds, and the Bond Registrar shall give notice, in the same

 manner in which the notice of redemption was given, that such moneys were not so received and

 that such Bonds will not be redeemed.

 E. Bonds Shall Become Due. Subject to the stated condition in paragraph (D)

 immediately preceding, official notice of redemption having been given as described, the Bonds

 or portions of Bonds so to be redeemed shall, on the redemption date, become due and payable at

 the redemption price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Village shall

 default in the payment of the redemption price) such Bonds or portions of Bonds shall cease to

 bear interest. Upon surrender of such Bonds for redemption in accordance with said notice, such

 Bonds shall be paid by the Bond Registrar at the redemption price. The procedure for the payment

 of interest due as part of the redemption price shall be as herein provided for payment of interest

 otherwise due.

 F. Insufficiency in Notice Not Affecting Other Bonds; Failure to Receive Notice;

 Waiver. Neither the failure to mail such redemption notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed,

 to any particular registered owner of a Bond, shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect

 to other registered owners. Notice having been properly given, failure of a registered owner of a

 Bond to receive such notice shall not be deemed to invalidate, limit or delay the effect of the notice

 or redemption action described in the notice. Such notice may be waived in writing by a registered

 owner of a Bond entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver

 shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by registered owners shall be filed with


 18
4828-5588-5480.3
 the Bond Registrar, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action

 taken in reliance upon such waiver. In lieu of the foregoing official notice, so long as the Bonds

 are held in Book Entry Form, notice may be given as provided in the Letter of Representations,

 and the giving of such notice shall constitute a waiver by the Depository and the Book Entry

 Owner, as registered owner, of the foregoing notice. After giving proper notification of

 redemption to the Bond Registrar, as applicable, the Village shall not be liable for any failure to

 give or defect in notice.

 G. New Bond in Amount Not Redeemed. Upon surrender for any partial redemption of

 any Bond, there shall be prepared for the registered owner a new Bond or Bonds of like tenor, of

 authorized denominations, of the same maturity, and bearing the same rate of interest in the amount

 of the unpaid principal.

 H. Effect of Nonpayment upon Redemption. If any Bond or portion of Bond called for

 redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal shall become

 due and payable on demand, as aforesaid, but, until paid or duly provided for, shall continue to

 bear interest from the redemption date at the rate borne by the Bond or portion of Bond so called

 for redemption.

 I. Bonds to Be Cancelled; Payment to Identify Bonds. All Bonds which have been

 redeemed shall be cancelled and destroyed by the Bond Registrar and shall not be reissued. Upon

 the payment of the redemption price of Bonds being redeemed, each check or other transfer of

 funds issued for such purpose shall bear the CUSIP number identifying, by issue and maturity, the

 Bonds being redeemed with the proceeds of such check or other transfer.

 J. Additional Notice. The Village agrees to provide such additional notice of

 redemption as it may deem advisable at such time as it determines to redeem Bonds, taking into


 19
4828-5588-5480.3
 account any requirements or guidance of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Municipal

 Securities Rulemaking Board, the Government Accounting Standards Board, or any other federal

 or state agency having jurisdiction or authority in such matters; provided, however, that such

 additional notice shall be (1) advisory in nature, (2) solely in the discretion of the Village (unless

 a separate agreement shall be made), (3) not be a condition precedent of a valid redemption or a

 part of the Bond contract, and (4) any failure or defect in such notice shall not delay or invalidate

 the redemption of Bonds for which proper official notice shall have been given. Reference is also

 made to the provisions of the Continuing Disclosure Undertaking of the Village with respect to

 the Bonds, which may contain other provisions relating to notice of redemption of Bonds.

 K. Bond Registrar to Advise Village. As part of its duties hereunder, the Bond

 Registrar shall prepare and forward to the Village a statement as to notices given with respect to

 each redemption together with copies of the notices as mailed.

 Section 12. Form of Bonds. The Bonds shall be in substantially the form set forth in

 Exhibit A hereto.

 Section 13. Security for the Bonds. The Bonds are a general obligation of the Village,

 for which the full faith and credit of the Village are irrevocably pledged, and are payable from the

 levy of the Ad Valorem Property Taxes on all of the taxable property in the Village, without

 limitation as to rate or amount, also so irrevocably pledged to the payment of the Bonds.

 Section 14. Tax Levy; Abatements. For the purpose of providing funds required to pay

 the interest on the Bonds promptly when and as the same falls due, and to pay and discharge the

 principal thereof at maturity, there is hereby levied upon all of the taxable property within the

 Village, in the years for which any of the Bonds are outstanding, a direct annual tax sufficient for

 that purpose, the direct annual taxes for the years and in the amounts as shall be set forth in the


 20
4828-5588-5480.3
 relevant Bond Order, provided that the maximum amount of Ad Valorem Property Taxes that shall

 be levied in each of the levy years provided below shall not exceed the following amounts:

 Maximum Levy
 Amount Maximum Levy
 (Refunding Amount
 Portion of the (Project Portion
 Levy Year Bonds) of the Bonds)

 2019 $2,008,179.02 $1,500,000.00
 2020 $2,008,179.02 $1,500,000.00
 2021 $2,008,179.02 $1,500,000.00
 2022 $2,008,179.02 $1,500,000.00
 2023 $2,008,179.02 $1,500,000.00
 2024 $2,008,179.02 $1,500,000.00
 2025 $2,008,179.02 $1,500,000.00
 2026 $2,008,179.02 $1,500,000.00
 2027 $2,008,179.02 $1,500,000.00
 2028 $2,008,179.02 $1,500,000.00
 2029 $1,500,000.00
 2030 $1,500,000.00
 2031 $1,500,000.00
 2032 $1,500,000.00
 2033 $1,500,000.00
 2034 $1,500,000.00
 2035 $1,500,000.00
 2036 $1,500,000.00
 2037 $1,500,000.00
 2038 $1,500,000.00
 2039 $1,500,000.00


 The Ad Valorem Property Taxes and other moneys on deposit (collectively, the “Bond Moneys”)

 in the Bond Fund shall be applied to pay principal of and interest on the Bonds as follows:

 A. Bond Moneys shall be applied to the payment of interest when due and principal or

 redemption price when due at maturity or as redeemed pursuant to mandatory redemption from

 the Bond Fund, or

 B. On or before October 2 in each calendar year preceding a December 1 mandatory

 redemption date in such calendar year, Bond Moneys up to the amount of the redemption

 21
4828-5588-5480.3
 requirement on such mandatory redemption date plus interest due on Term Bonds on such date

 may be applied (1) to the purchase of Term Bonds of the maturity for which such mandatory

 redemption requirement was established at prices (including commissions and charges, if any) not

 exceeding par and accrued interest to such December 1 or (2) to the redemption of such Bonds,

 without premium, pursuant to optional redemption provisions applicable thereto. Upon the

 purchase or redemption of Term Bonds of any maturity pursuant to this paragraph (B), an amount

 equal to the principal amount of such Bonds or applicable portion thereof so purchased or

 redeemed shall be deducted from the next mandatory redemption requirement thereafter to become

 due on such Bonds and any excess over the amount of such requirement shall be deducted from

 the future requirement for such Bonds as the Village shall determine.

 Interest on or principal of the Bonds coming due at any time when there are insufficient

 funds on hand from the Ad Valorem Property Taxes to pay the same shall be paid promptly when

 due from current funds on hand in advance of the collection of the Ad Valorem Property Taxes

 herein levied; and when the Ad Valorem Property Taxes shall have been collected, reimbursement

 shall be made to said funds in the amount so advanced. The Village covenants and agrees with

 the purchasers and registered owners of the Bonds that so long as any of the Bonds remain

 outstanding the Village will take no action or fail to take any action which in any way would

 adversely affect the ability of the Village to levy and collect the Ad Valorem Property Taxes. The

 Village and its officers will comply with all present and future applicable laws in order to assure

 that the Ad Valorem Property Taxes may lawfully be levied, extended, and collected as provided

 herein. In the event that funds from any other lawful source, are made available for the purpose

 of paying any principal of or interest on the Bonds so as to enable the abatement of the Ad Valorem

 Property Taxes for the payment of same, the Corporate Authorities shall, by proper proceedings,


 22
4828-5588-5480.3
 direct the transfer of such funds to the Bond Fund, and shall then direct the abatement of the taxes

 by the amount so deposited. The Village covenants and agrees that it will not direct the abatement

 of taxes until money has been deposited into the Bond Fund in the amount of such abatement. A

 certified copy or other notification of any such proceedings abating taxes may then be filed with

 the County Clerk in a timely manner to effect such abatement.

 Section 15. Filing with County Clerk. Promptly, after this Ordinance becomes effective

 and upon execution of the Bond Order, a copy hereof, certified by the Village Clerk, shall be filed

 with the County Clerk. Under authority of this Ordinance, the County Clerk shall in and for each

 of the years as set forth in the Bond Order, ascertain the rate percent required to produce the

 aggregate Ad Valorem Property Taxes levied in each of such years; and the County Clerk shall

 extend the same for collection on the tax books in connection with other taxes levied in such years

 in and by the Village for general corporate purposes of the Village; and in each of those years such

 annual tax shall be levied and collected by and for and on behalf of the Village in like manner as

 taxes for general corporate purposes for such years are levied and collected, without limit as to

 rate or amount, and in addition to and in excess of all other taxes.

 Section 16. Sale of Bonds; Bond Order; Official Statement.

 A. Any two or more of the Designated Officers are hereby authorized to proceed,

 without any further official authorization or direction whatsoever from the Corporate Authorities,

 to sell through either a competitive or negotiated sale and deliver the Bonds as herein provided,

 pursuant to the Bond Order. The Designated Officers shall be and are hereby authorized and

 directed to sell the Bonds to the Purchaser at the Purchase Price and upon the condition that the

 Village’s financial advisor shall provide advice (in the form of written certificate or report) that




 23
4828-5588-5480.3
 the terms of the Bonds are fair and reasonable in light of current conditions in the market for Tax-

 exempt obligations such as the Bonds.

 The net present value savings derived from any Refunding (as shown in a written certificate

 or report delivered by the Village’s financial advisor or the Purchaser), shall not be less than 2.00%

 of the face amount of the Prior Bonds in fact so refunded; and the taxes levied for each year for

 the Refunding Portion of the Bonds shall be not greater than the taxes levied for the corresponding

 Prior Bonds in fact so refunded.

 Nothing in this Section shall require the Designated Officers to sell the Bonds if in their

 judgment the conditions in the bond markets shall have markedly deteriorated from the time of

 adoption hereof, but the Designated Officers shall have the authority to sell the Bonds in any event

 so long as the limitations set forth in this Ordinance shall have been met. Incidental to any sale of

 the Bonds, the Designated Officers shall find and determine in the Bond Order that no person

 holding any office of the Village either by election or appointment, is in any manner financially

 interested, either directly, in his or her own name, or indirectly, in the name of any other person,

 association, trust or corporation, in the agreement with the Purchaser for the purchase of the Bonds.

 B. Upon the sale of the Bonds, the Designated Officers and any other officers of the

 Village as shall be appropriate shall be and are hereby authorized and directed to approve or

 execute, or both, such documents of sale of the Bonds as may be necessary, including, without

 limitation, a Bond Order, Preliminary Official Statement, Official Statement, Bond Purchase

 Agreement, closing documents; such certifications, tax returns, and documentation as may be

 required by Bond Counsel including, specifically, a tax certificate or agreement to render an

 payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds. Accrued interest, if any, received upon delivery

 of the Bonds shall be deposited into the Bond Fund and be applied to pay first interest coming due

 on the Bonds.

 B. The Ad Valorem Property Taxes shall either be deposited into the Bond Fund and

 used solely and only for paying the principal of and interest on the Bonds or be used to reimburse

 a fund or account from which advances to the Bond Fund may have been made to pay principal of

 or interest on the Bonds prior to receipt of Ad Valorem Property Taxes. Interest income or

 investment profit earned in the Bond Fund shall be retained in the Bond Fund for payment of the

 principal of or interest on the Bonds on the interest payment date next after such interest or profit


 26
4828-5588-5480.3
 is received or, to the extent lawful and as determined by the Corporate Authorities, transferred to

 such other fund as may be determined. The Village hereby pledges, as equal and ratable security

 for the Bonds, all present and future proceeds of the Ad Valorem Property Taxes for the sole

 benefit of the registered owners of the Bonds, subject to the reserved right of the Corporate

 Authorities to transfer certain interest income or investment profit earned in the Bond Fund to

 other funds of the Village, as described in the preceding sentence.

 C. The amount necessary from the proceeds of the Refunding Bonds, together with

 such money in the bond fund for the Prior Bonds as may be advisable for the purpose, shall be

 used to pay expenses of issuance of the Refunding Portion of the Bonds and to provide for the

 refunding of the Refunded Bonds pursuant to the provisions of a Direction to Redeem and an

 Escrow Agreement given to the Paying Agent for the Prior Bonds, all in accordance with the

 provisions of such Direction to Redeem and the Escrow Agreement, substantially in the form

 approved by a Designated Officer, such execution thereof to constitute conclusive evidence of his

 or her approval and the Village’s approval of such forms. The Purchaser, the Paying Agent for

 the Refunded Bonds, and Bond Counsel, be and the same are each hereby authorized to act as

 agent for the Village in the purchase of the Government Securities described and set forth in such

 Direction to Redeem and the Escrow Agreement. Any amounts remaining from the proceeds of

 the Refunding Portion of the Bonds after accomplishing the Refunding shall be set aside in the

 Bond Fund, applied to pay next interest on the Refunding Portion of the Bonds, and taxes shall be

 abated accordingly.

 D. The amount necessary from the proceeds of the Project Portion of the Bonds, as

 specified in the Bond Order, shall be deposited into a separate fund, hereby created, designated the

 “Series 2019 Bonds Project Fund Account” (the “Project Fund”) to be used to pay the costs of the


 27
4828-5588-5480.3
 Project. Moneys shall be disbursed from the Project Fund to pay costs of the Project, but may

 hereafter be re-appropriated and used for other purposes if such re-appropriation is permitted under

 Illinois law. The Village shall keep proper books and records of disbursements of amounts from

 the Project Fund including the amount and timing of each such disbursement. The Corporate

 Authorities in consultation with the Library Board reserve the right, as it becomes necessary or

 advisable from time to time, to revise the list of expenditures for the Project, to change priorities,

 to revise cost allocations between expenditures and to substitute projects, in order to meet current

 needs of the Village; subject, however, to the various covenants set forth in this Ordinance and in

 related certificates given in connection with delivery of the Bonds and also subject to the obtaining

 of the opinion of Bond Counsel, or of some other attorney or firm of attorneys whose opinions are

 generally acceptable to the purchasers in the national marketplace of Tax-exempt governmental

 obligations (“Other Bond Counsel”) that such changes or substitutions are proper under the Act

 and do not adversely affect the Tax-exempt status of the Tax-exempt Bonds.

 E. The Village Finance Director may allocate Bond Moneys or the proceeds of the

 Bonds for expenses to one or more related funds of the Village already in existence and in

 accordance with good accounting practice; provided, however, that this shall not relieve the Village

 or the Village Finance Director of the duty to account and invest both the proceeds of the Bonds

 and the Bond Moneys as herein provided, as if such funds had in fact been created.

 Section 19. Rights and Duties of Bond Registrar. If requested by the Bond Registrar,

 will maintain at the designated office(s) of such Bond Registrar a place or places where Bonds

 may be presented for payment, registration, transfer or exchange; and it will require that the Bond

 Registrar properly maintain the Bond Register and perform the other duties and obligations

 imposed upon it by this Ordinance in a manner consistent with the standards, customs and practices

 of the municipal securities industry.

 B. The Bond Registrar shall signify its acceptance of the duties and obligations

 imposed upon it by this Ordinance by executing the certificate of authentication on any Bond, and

 by such execution the Bond Registrar shall be deemed to have certified to the Village that it has

 all requisite power to accept and has accepted such duties and obligations not only with respect to

 the Bond so authenticated but with respect to all the Bonds. Any Bond Registrar shall be the agent

 of the Village and shall not be liable in connection with the performance of its duties except for its

 own negligence or willful wrongdoing. Any Bond Registrar shall, however, be responsible for

 any representation in its certificate of authentication on Bonds.


 29
4828-5588-5480.3
 C. The Village may remove the Bond Registrar at any time. In case at any time the

 Bond Registrar shall resign, shall be removed, shall become incapable of acting, or shall be

 adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or if a receiver, liquidator, or conservator of the Bond

 Registrar or of the property thereof shall be appointed, or if any public officer shall take charge or

 control of the Bond Registrar or of the property or affairs thereof, the Village covenants and agrees

 that it will thereupon appoint a successor Bond Registrar. The Village shall give notice of any

 such appointment made by it to each registered owner of any Bond within twenty days after such

 appointment in any reasonable manner as the Village shall select. Any Bond Registrar appointed

 under the provisions of this Section shall be a bank, trust company, or national banking association

 maintaining a corporate trust office in Illinois or New York, and having capital and surplus and

 undivided profits in excess of $100,000,000. The Village Clerk of the Village is hereby directed

 to file a certified copy of this Ordinance with the Bond Registrar.

 Section 20. Defeasance. Any Bond or Bonds which (a) are paid and cancelled, (b)

 which have matured and for which sufficient sums have been deposited with the Bond Registrar

 to pay all principal and interest due thereon, or (c) for which sufficient funds and Defeasance

 Obligations have been deposited with the Bond Registrar or similar institution to pay, taking into

 account investment earnings on such obligations, all principal of and interest on such Bond or

 Bonds when due at maturity or as called for redemption, pursuant to an irrevocable escrow or trust

 agreement, shall cease to have any lien on or right to receive or be paid from the Ad Valorem

 Property Taxes and shall no longer have the benefits of any covenant for the registered owners of

 outstanding Bonds as set forth herein as such relates to lien and security of the outstanding Bonds.

 All covenants relative to payment, registration, transfer, and exchange are expressly continued for

 all Bonds whether outstanding Bonds or not. For purposes of this Section, “Defeasance


 30
4828-5588-5480.3
 Obligations” means (a) direct and general full faith and credit obligations of the United States

 Treasury (“Directs”), (b) certificates of participation or trust receipts in trusts comprised wholly

 of Directs or (c) other obligations unconditionally guaranteed as to timely payment by the United

 States Treasury.

 Section 21. Tax Covenants. The Village hereby covenants that it will not take any

 action, omit to take any action or permit the taking or omission of any action within its control

 (including, without limitation, making or permitting any use of the proceeds of the Bonds) if

 taking, permitting, or omitting to take such action would cause any of the Bonds to be an arbitrage

 bond or a private activity bond within the meaning of the Code, would otherwise cause the interest

 on the Tax-exempt Bonds to be included in the gross income of the recipients thereof for federal

 income tax purposes. The Village acknowledges that, in the event of an examination by the

 Internal Revenue Service of the exemption from Federal income taxation for interest paid on the

 Bonds, under present rules, the Village may be treated as a “taxpayer” in such examination and

 agrees that it will respond in a commercially reasonable manner to any inquiries from the Internal

 Revenue Service in connection with such an examination. In furtherance of the foregoing

 provisions, but without limiting their generality, the Village agrees: (a) through its officers, to

 make such further specific covenants, representations as shall be truthful, and assurance as may

 be necessary or advisable; (b) to comply with all representations, covenants, and assurance

 contained in certificates or agreements as may be prepared by Bond Counsel; (c) to consult with

 such Bond Counsel and to comply with such advice as may be given; (d) to file such forms,

 statements, and supporting documents as may be required and in a timely manner; and (e) if

 deemed necessary or advisable by its officers, to employ and pay fiscal agents, financial advisors,

 attorneys, and other persons to assist the Village in such compliance.

 A. None of the bonds shall be and none of the Prior Bonds was a “private

 activity bond” as defined in Section 141(a) of the Code; and the Village certifies, represents, and

 covenant as follows:

 Bonds has been or will be derived, directly or indirectly, from payments with respect to

 any private business use by any person other than a state or local governmental unit.

 same basis as the general public; and except as noted, no person, other than the Village or


 32
4828-5588-5480.3
 another governmental unit, will be a user of such property as a result of (i) ownership or

 (ii) actual or beneficial use pursuant to a lease, a management or incentive payment contract

 other than as expressly permitted by the Code, or (iii) any other arrangement.

 B. The Bonds shall not be “arbitrage bonds” under Section 148 of the Code;

 spent.

 (2) With respect to the Project, the Village or the Library Board has heretofore

 incurred or within six months after delivery of the Project Portion of the Bonds expects to

 incur substantial binding obligations to be paid for with money received from the sale of

 the Project Portion of the Bonds, said binding obligations comprising binding contracts for

 the Project in not less than the amount of 5% of the proceeds of the Project Portion of the

 provide for the payment of the Bonds. The Bond Fund has been established and will be

 the Bonds is hereby authorized to make such elections under the Code as such officer shall

 deem reasonable and in the best interests of the Village. If such election may result in a

 “penalty in lieu of rebate” as provided in the Code, and such penalty is incurred (the

 “Penalty”), then the Village shall pay such Penalty.




 34
4828-5588-5480.3

 except architectural or engineering costs incurred prior to commencement of any of the Project or

 expenditures for which an intent to reimburse it as properly declared under Treasury Regulations

 Section 1.150-2. This Ordinance is in itself a declaration of official intent under Treasury

 Regulations Section 1.150-2 as to all costs of the Project paid after the date hereof and prior to

 issuance of the Bonds.

 D. The Village reserves the right to use or invest moneys in connection with

 the Bonds in any manner, notwithstanding the representations and covenants relating to the Tax-

 exempt status of the Bonds, provided it shall first have received an opinion from Bond Counsel to

 the effect that use or investment of such moneys will not result in loss or impairment of the Tax-

 exempt status for the Bonds.

 and interest on the Prior Bonds for the years 2019 and thereafter, to the extent such principal and

 interest is provided for from the proceeds of the Bonds or otherwise as hereinabove described,

 2019-36P: Site Plan Approval

PLAN COMMISSION ANALYSIS
At its October 3, 2019 meeting, the Plan Commission heard the request of the Village of
Skokie to amend the zoning map to change the zoning district for the north 11.45’ of
the east-west alley north of and adjacent to 4930 Oakton Street from CX Core Mixed-
Use to B6 Downtown Science and Technology. The Village of Skokie desires to rezone
the subject site, which presently contains a concrete-paved public alley, to B6 in order
to match the zoning of the Illinois Science + Technology Park to the north. The land
within the vacated alley will be incorporated into the park and redeveloped into a
private street (Oakton Terrace) which will serve both the Illinois Science + Technology
Park as well as the proposed Homewood Suites development to the south at the
property currently addressed as 4930 Oakton Street (case 2019-36P).
The Plan Commission concurred with Staff’s recommendation to grant the zoning map
amendment. Based on existing land uses and development trends within the
immediate area, the proposed B6 zoning is more suitable for the subject site. Although
the proposed zoning map amendment is not consistent with the land use designation in
the Comprehensive Plan, the Illinois Science + Technology Park is configured in a
pedestrian oriented manner and the zoning change is taking place within an existing
public right-of-way which technically has no land use designation. This roadway is also
indicated in the Illinois Science + Technology Park master plan, which was approved by
the Village Board in 2007 (case 2006-21P).

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.

PETITIONER’S SUBMITTAL
The Village is requesting to change the zoning district for the north 11.45’ of the east-
west alley north of and adjacent to 4930 Oakton Street from CX Core Mixed-Use to B6
Downtown Science and Technology. The Village of Skokie desires to rezone the subject
site, which presently contains a concrete-paved public alley to B6 in order to match the
zoning of the Illinois Science + Technology Park to the north. The land within vacated
alley will be incorporated into the park and redeveloped into a private street (Oakton
Terrace) which will serve both the Illinois Science + Technology Park as well as the
proposed Homewood Suites development to the south at the property currently
addressed as 4930 Oakton Street (case 2019-36P).

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 material and supports the
 proposed zoning map amendment. Although the proposed zoning map amendment
 is not consistent with the land use designation in the Comprehensive Plan, the
 Illinois Science + Technology Park is configured in a pedestrian oriented manner
 and the zoning change is taking place within an existing public right-of-way which
 technically has no land use designation. This roadway is, however, indicated in the
 Illinois Science + Technology Park master plan, which was approved by the Village
 Board in 2007 (case 2006-21P).
 The subject site was initially zoned F Business in 1946 and subsequently reclassified
 as B3 Business prior to 1959. The site was rezoned to B5 Central Business District in
 1969 (case 69-27P) and renamed B5 Downtown in the early 1990’s. In 2009, the
 site was rezoned to CX Core-Mixed-Use.
 A private driveway existed within the subject site as of the 1950’s and ran behind a
 single-family residence, which was demolished in advance of the construction in
 1960 of an automotive repair facility (4934 Oakton Street). The subject site was
 formally dedicated as a public alley in 1975, prior to the 1978 construction of the
 existing office building at 4930 Oakton Street.
 Current surrounding uses include research and development services; office and
 administrative services; vacant storefronts; a full service restaurant; a vacant office
 building; and a mixed-use building containing a 3-or more unit multifamily
 residence, a nail salon, a pharmacy, hair salons, a chamber of commerce office, a
 clinic, and a vacant storefront. The trend in development in the general area over
 the past 25 years has been toward commercial and mixed-use commercial/3 or

PLAN COMMISSION ANALYSIS
At its October 3, 2019, meeting, the Plan Commission heard the request of Skokie ISTP,
LLC, to vacate the east-west alley north of and adjacent to 4930 Oakton Street. At the
present time, the alley is improved and concrete-paved. The existing overhead utilities
running along the north side of the alley will be placed under the vacated alley when
the subject site is redeveloped. A 2” gas line and a 10” storm sewer line run within the
alley.
The petitioners intend to incorporate the south 4.55’ of the west 241’ of the vacated
alley with part of the property to the south at 4930 Oakton Street in order to construct
an 8-story mixed-use building with a hotel and ground story retail (case 2019-36P).
The remainder of the south 4.55’ of the alley will be conveyed to a second lot to the
east, which will be redeveloped at a later time.
The remaining north 11.45’ of the vacated alley will be conveyed to the Illinois Science
+ Technology Park and redeveloped into a private street (Oakton Terrace) which will
serve the Illinois Science + Technology Park and the proposed mixed-use development.
In addition to the creation of an easement for all public utilities which are already
present or will be located within the subject site in the future, a separate easement
easement for vehicular and pedestrian ingress and egress will be established within the
full width of the subject site.
The Plan Commission concurred with Staff’s recommendation to grant the alley vacation
approval subject to conditions.
One commissioner asked if the new Oakton Terrace roadway would occupy the 16’-wide
vacated alley. Staff replied that Oakton Terrace would be located to the north of the
subject site and would meet the Village’s requirements for a 2-way driveway.

PETITIONER’S SUBMITTAL
The petitioner is requesting the vacation of the east-west alley north of and adjacent to
4930 Oakton Street. At the present time, the alley is improved and concrete-paved.
The existing overhead utilities running along the north side of the alley will be placed
under the vacated alley when the subject site is redeveloped. Due to the presence of a
10’-wide gas main easement to the east of the subject site, a gas line running in an
east-west direction may be present within the alley as well. A 10” storm sewer line also
runs within the alley.
The petitioners intend to incorporate the south 4.55’ of the west 241’ of the vacated
alley with part of the property to the south at 4930 Oakton Street in order to construct
an 8-story mixed-use building with a hotel and ground story retail (case 2019-36P).
The remainder of the south 4.55’ of the alley will be conveyed to a second lot to the
east, which will be redeveloped at a later time.
The remaining north 11.45’ of the vacated alley will be conveyed to the Illinois Science
+ Technology Park and redeveloped into a private street (Oakton Terrace) which will
serve the Illinois Science + Technology Park and the proposed mixed-use development.

STAFF ANALYSIS
All pertinent departments and divisions were offered an opportunity to comment on this
case. Other than the Public Works Department, Civil Engineering Division, and Planning
Division comments below, all others did not respond or approved the request without
comment.
 Public Works Department
 A new water main will be constructed within Oakton Terrace and Lamon Avenue
 within the Illinois Science + Technology Park. Although the final ownership of the
 main is not known at this time, Public Works staff recommends that a utility
 easement be established for the full extent of the subject site.
 Civil Engineering Division
 The existing public storm sewer line and structures shall become privately-owned
 upon vacation of the subject site.

 Planning Division staff supports the proposed alley vacation. The vacation of the
 alley will create a larger, more suitable site for the construction of the proposed
 mixed-use development as well as provide additional width for the improvement of
 Oakton Terrace.
 An easement for vehicular and pedestrian ingress and egress shall be established
 within the full width of the subject site.
 Prior to the hearing of the case before the Board of Trustees, Village staff will
 contact Nicor to determine whether or not a gas main runs within the subject site.

 2019-34P: Alley Vacation
 2019-35P: Subdivision
 2019-37P: Special Use Permit

  PLAN COMMISSION ANALYSIS
  During its October 3, 2019, meeting, the Plan Commission heard a request for a
  planned development in a CX Core Mixed-Use zoning district that includes a mixed-use
  building that exceeds the district’s permitted base building height of 45’, has an FAR
  above 2.5, and also several items of relief.
  The petitioner is proposing to construct a mixed-use building containing ground-floor
  retail, a hotel, conference center, and a roof-top skybar at the northeast corner of
  Oakton Street and Niles Avenue. The special use permit for the hotel will be covered in
  case 2019-37P. This case focuses on the specifics of the site development.
  The proposed building is 8 stories and 96’ tall to the top of the roof. The ground floor
  will contain 11,924 ft2 of retail and hotel common areas. The second floor will have
  additional hotel common areas as well as an 11,506 ft2 conference center, and an
  active 6,909 ft2 terrace. The 3rd through 7th floors will contain hotel rooms, and the 8th
  floor will be additional hotel rooms, a 7,630 ft2 skybar, and a 2,391 ft2 terrace.
  The covered hotel entrance and drop-off drive will be off Niles Avenue. The retail will
  face Oakton Street, and the entrance for the skybar will be off a pedestrian walk along
  the east side of the building. There will be temporary conference center parking and
  loading on the north side of the building.
  The private road on the north side of the site and the parking garage that will be built
  immediately north of the site are part of the Illinois Science + Technology Park master
  plan that was previously approved in case 2006-21P.
  The total area of the proposed building is 133,644 ft2, with an additional covered drive
  of 2,628 ft2, and the second floor active terrace required by the design guidelines of
  6,909 ft2. This results in a total FAR of 4.66. The building meets its FAR requirement,
  based on qualified bonuses.
  Discussion from the Commissioners about this case focused on clarifications about the
  development of Oakton Terrace along the northern edge of the site, the development of
  the adjacent parking garage, general traffic circulation, and the provision of adequate

  parking for the facility. Their concerns were addressed by the petitioner, Gewalt-
  Hamilton Associates who has been retained by the Village to design the private road
  improvements, and Village Staff.
  A more detailed discussion of this and the related cases are in the attached staff report
  and in the video minutes https://www.skokie.org/451/Public-Meetings-Video-Minutes.



  INTERESTED PARTIES
  Legal notice was advertised, posted, and delivered to property owners in the area as
  prescribed by the Zoning Chapter. Two interested parties spoke, both represented
  Downtown businesses. One had questions about the utility relocations with the
  construction of Oakton Terrace. The other wanted to confirm that the proposal will not
  result in loss of Downtown parking (which it will not) and asked about potential ground
  floor uses.

  APPEARANCE COMMISSION
  At its August 14, 2019, meeting, the Appearance Commission approved the proposed
  development as presented (case 2019-024A).

  PLAN COMMISSION RECOMMENDATIONS AND VOTING
  The Plan Commission recommended, by a vote of 8 ayes, 0 nays, and 1 commissioner
  absent, that the petitioner’s request for site plan approval for a planned development in
  a CX Core Mixed-Use zoning district that includes a mixed-use building that exceeds the
  district’s permitted base building height of 45’ and has an FAR above 2.5 be
  APPROVED based upon the Positive Findings of Fact and subject to the Recommended
  Conditions listed below.
  The Plan Commission also recommended that relief be granted from the following
  sections of the Village Code:
 1. §118-184(c)(4) to allow less than 50% of the first floor façade to abut the public
 sidewalk along a retail street on Niles Avenue;
 2. §118-184(c)(5) to allow less than the required 60% of the first floor linear
 frontage of total lot frontage along the public sidewalk on Niles Avenue to be
 devoted to permitted and special uses on retail streets;
 3. §118-184(c)(9) to allow recessed entrances to be wider than one third of the
 entire frontage along a retail street on Niles Avenue; and
 4. §118-52 to allow a sight distance triangle less than 15’ on the Niles Avenue one-

  PETITIONER’S SUBMITTAL
  Skokie ISTP, LLC, on behalf of E&M Skokie, LLC, and the Village of Skokie are requesting site
  plan approval for a planned development in a CX Core Mixed-Use zoning district that includes a
  mixed-use building that exceeds the district’s permitted base building height of 45’ and has an
  FAR above 2.5, plus relief from §118-184(c)(4) to allow less than 50% of the first floor façade
  to abut the public sidewalk along a retail street, §118-184(c)(5) to allow less than the required
  60% of the first floor linear frontage of total lot frontage along the public sidewalk to be
  devoted to permitted and special uses on retail streets, §118-184(c)(9) to allow recessed
  entrances to be wider than one third of the entire frontage along a retail street, and any other
  relief that may be discovered during the review of this case.
  The petitioner is proposing to construct a mixed-use building containing ground-floor retail, a
  hotel, conference center, and a roof-top skybar at the northeast corner of Oakton Street and
  Niles Avenue. The special use permit for the hotel will be covered in case 2019-37P. This case
  will focus on the specifics of the site development.
  The proposed building is 8 stories and 96’ tall to the top of the roof. The ground floor will
  contain 11,924 ft2 of retail and hotel common areas. The second floor will have additional hotel
  common areas as well as an 11,506 ft2 conference center, and an active 6,909 ft2 terrace. The
  3rd through 7th floors will contain hotel rooms, and the 8th floor will be additional hotel rooms, a
  7,630 ft2 skybar, and a 2,391 ft2 terrace.

49_Oakton_Street__8009_Niles_Avenue__and_4933_Oakton_Terrace
 9 of 14
  The covered hotel entrance and drop-off drive will be off Niles Avenue. The retail will face
  Oakton Street, and entrance for the skybar will be off a pedestrian walk along the east side of
  the building. There will be temporary conference center parking and loading on the north side
  of the building.
  The private road on the north side of the site and the parking garage that will be built
  immediately north of the site are part of the Illinois Science + Technology Park master plan that
  was previously approved in case 2006-21P.
  The total area of the proposed building is 133,644 ft2, with an additional covered ground floor
  area of 2,628 ft2, and the second floor active terrace required by the design guidelines of 6,909
  ft2. This results in a total FAR of 4.66.


  STAFF ANALYSIS
  All pertinent departments and divisions were offered an opportunity to comment on this case.
  The Forestry, Engineering, and Planning Divisions provided comments on the subject case.


 Forestry
 Prior to the hearing of this case before the Board of Trustees, a tree survey for the subject
 property listing all trees greater than 8" DBH in spreadsheet form will be required to be
 reviewed by a Village Forester to assess the tree removal fee. Also, the petitioner should be
 aware that a tree removal permit is required prior to demolition of the existing building
 along with the appropriate tree bond, and tree protection fencing is required for remaining
 site and parkway trees during demolition and construction of the project.


 Engineering Division
 All the required vehicle parking spaces will be provided off-site in the parking garage north
 of the redesigned Oakton Terrace. The entire development will require 186 parking spaces
 as long as parking-exempt uses are provided in the retail spaces; otherwise, up to 16
 additional spaces may be required. Payment into the Downtown Parking Fund in lieu would
 be required if all parking spaces are not provided at the time of occupancy; $15,000 would
 be required for each of the first 5 spaces and $24,000 for each space after that (or the
 current rate at the time of occupancy). Once the credit is paid for the space, it would not
 need to be paid again for the life of the building.
 In addition, the site plan needs to be modified to provide a stop bar and R-1 stop sign at
 the exit of the hotel valet area. Engineering also discovered during the review of this case,
 an encroachment of the ground floor of the building into the 15’ site distance triangle at the
 entrance driveway for the hotel valet and Niles Avenue right-of-way. The applicant can
 either adjust the ground for wall or ask for relief, which Engineering could support because
 the driveway is one-way in favor of the pedestrian sightline.


 Planning Division
 Planning supports the proposed development. It is consistent with the mixed-use
 characteristics of the Comprehensive Plan and as well as almost all the design requirements
 of the CX Core Mixed-Use zoning district. The 15’-wide pedestrian arcade on the east side
VOSDOCS-#560674-v1-Master_Plan_Commission_Repot_for_2019-36P__site_plan_approval_for_4918-
49_Oakton_Street__8009_Niles_Avenue__and_4933_Oakton_Terrace
 10 of 14
 of the building will provide separate access to the rooftop bar as well as additional access to
 the IS+TP. The top floor is designed so that the bar is away from the upper-story
 residences in Towne Square and the block of 8th floor hotel rooms will shield noise that may
 come from that use. The active 2nd floor terrace provides outdoor activity above the street
 level.
 The height of the building is significantly less than the 156’ maximum allowed by the zoning
 district, but at 96’ tall, is compatible with the 84’ Metropolitan at the southwest corner of the
 intersection and the up to 90’ tall allowed by the master plan for the IS+TP previously
 approved by the Village.
 The FAR of the proposed building is 4.66. The building is eligible for a base FAR of 2.50 + a
 ground floor commercial bonus of 1.00 + corner bonus of 0.65, totaling 4.15. There is an
 FAR credit of 1.00 for an upper-story non-residential use, lowering the proposed building’s
 FAR to 3.66. The FAR requirements are met.
 Staff supports the relief from §118-184(c)(4) to allow less than 50% of the first floor façade
 to abut the public sidewalk along a retail street, §118-184(c)(5) to allow less than the
 required 60% of the first floor linear frontage of total lot frontage along the public sidewalk
 to be devoted to permitted and special uses on retail streets, §118-184(c)(9) to allow
 recessed entrances to be wider than one third of the entire frontage along a retail street.
 These items of relief are all on the Niles Avenue frontage to accommodate the hotel drop-
 off and valet drive, which allows for a continuous retail frontage along Oakton Street. The
 wall of the building above the second floor is brought forward to within a few feet of the
 Niles Avenue sidewalk. Planning can also support the additional item of relief found by the
 Engineering Division with respect to the site distance triangle on Niles Avenue and the hotel
 driveway; however, correcting this item will not impact the FAR calculation in a negative
 way and would provide greater visibility to the hotel entrance.


  APPEARANCE COMMISSION
  At its August 14, 2019, meeting, the Appearance Commission approved the proposed
  development as presented (case 2019-024A).
  STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
  Staff recommends that the petitioner’s request for site plan approval for a planned development
  in a CX Core Mixed-Use zoning district that includes a mixed-use building that exceeds the
  district’s permitted base building height of 45’ and has an FAR above 2.5 be APPROVED based
  upon the Proposed Positive Findings of Fact and subject to the recommended site plan approval
  conditions listed below.
  Staff also recommends that relief be granted from the following sections of the Village Code:
 1. §118-184(c)(4) to allow less than 50% of the first floor façade to abut the public
 sidewalk along a retail street on Niles Avenue;
 2. §118-184(c)(5) to allow less than the required 60% of the first floor linear frontage of
 total lot frontage along the public sidewalk on Niles Avenue to be devoted to permitted
 and special uses on retail streets;
 3. §118-184(c)(9) to allow recessed entrances to be wider than one third of the entire
 frontage along a retail street on Niles Avenue; and

Plan Commission Council Chambers, 8:00 PM, October 22, 2019



To: Mayor and Board of Trustees
From: Paul Luke, Plan Commission Chairperson
Case: 2019-37P: Special Use Permit
 8909 Niles Avenue

 Related Cases – 2019-33P: Zoning Map Amendment
 2019-34P: Alley Vacation
 2019-35P: Subdivision
 2019-36P: Site Plan Approval
 2019-37P: Special Use Permit – hotel

PLAN COMMISSION ANALYSIS
The case was heard at the October 3, 2019 Plan Commission meeting, and involves a
request for a special use permit for a hotel in a CX Core Mixed-Use zoning district, plus
relief from §82-27(c)(5) to allow a wall sign above a 2nd floor window sill, §82-27(d) to
allow a 126.5 s.f. ground sign located 0’ from an interior lot line, §82-27(e) to allow an
84 s.f. internally illuminated blade sign above the second floor window sills, and any
other relief that may be discovered during the review of this case.
The petitioner is proposing a 143 room hotel and conference center, the details of
which were included in the site plan approval case for 2019-36P. The Plan Commission
is supportive of the proposal and the items of relief for signage. Discussion from the
Commission that was specific to the special use permit included accommodating the
maximum occupancy of the conference center and vehicle passenger pick up and drop
off for the rooftop bar, which has its front door from the side of the building not
abutting a street.
In conjunction with the sign relief, the Plan Commission recommended modifications to
the Village of Skokie Downtown Area Sign Guidelines to better regulated illuminated
blade signs.
A more detailed discussion of this and the related cases are in the attached staff report
and in the video minutes https://www.skokie.org/451/Public-Meetings-Video-Minutes.


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 that
notice was proper and correct. There were no interested parties who spoke regarding
this case.

APPEARANCE COMMISSION
At its August 14, 2019, meeting, the Appearance Commission approved the proposed
development as presented, with the requested sign relief (case 2019-024A).

PLAN COMMISSION RECOMMENDATIONS AND VOTING
The Plan Commission recommended, by a vote of 8 ayes, 0 nays, and 1 absent that the
petitioner’s request for a special use permit for a hotel at 8009 Niles Avenue in a CX
Core Mixed-Use district be APPROVED, based upon the Plan Commission Positive
Findings of Fact and subject to the recommended conditions in alley vacation case
2019-34P, subdivision case 2019-35P, site plan approval case 2019-36P, and the
conditions and relief listed below.
The Plan Commission further recommends relief from §82-27(c)(5) of the Village Code
to allow a wall sign above a 2nd floor window sill; from §82-27(d) of the Village Code to
allow a 126.5 square-foot ground sign located 0’ from an interior lot line; and from §82-
27(e) of the Village Code to allow an 84 square-foot internally illuminated blade sign
above the second floor window sills. Finally, the Plan Commission recommends
updating the Village of Skokie Downtown Area Sign Guidelines to ensure any future
larger, internally-illuminated blade sign meets certain criteria, including the size of the
building to which it will be attached and the brightness of the display during evening
hours.

SITE INFORMATION



See case 2019-36P for site and Complete Streets information.


PETITIONER’S SUBMITTAL
 I am honored to present our plans and strategy for a 143 room Homewood Suites and
 related retail located on part of 4900 and 4930 Oakton. The total area for these parcels is
 approx. 1.3 acres. The property lines will be amended so that two separate parcels will be
 created- One for the hotel that this letter addresses and the other to be sold for future
 development. This letter will only address the hotel parcel.
 The Homewood Suites by Hilton is a highly regarded, enhanced suites concept to serve
 visitors and the citizens of the area. With frontage on Oakton and abutting to the Illinois
 Science and Technology Park, the hotel is well situated to make a significant statement in
 the revitalization of downtown Skokie. While the hotel will be in the traditional downtown,
 retail section of Skokie, we are aware of the impact to neighborhoods and the community.
 Being that the guests of a Homewood are typically families and professionals, the guest
 experience requires a clean, well maintained property that is respectful to its surroundings.
 This requirement will also be applied to the related retail that the project will include.
 Thus the total site will include:
 1. 8 total story Hotel on approx. .8 acres
 a. 1st floor- Hotel common area and approx. 12k sq ft of third-party retail that
 can consist of:
 i Restaurants
 i. Professional Services
 ii. General Retail that meets Community needs
 b. 2nd floor- approx. 15k sq ft of Event Space and Hotel Guest amenities
 c. 3rd floor thru 7th floor- Guest Rooms
 d. 8th floor- rooftop Skybar and Guest Rooms
 2. Separate parcel on .7 acres to be sold separately
 3. On a side note, Parking to be constructed by American Landmark Properties and
 leased to Hotel. This structure to be located on the north east corner of Niles Ave
 and Oakton Terrace
 To assure that the continuing operations of the hotel meet brand standards, maintain
 community good will, and operational integrity, Maverick Hospitality will be the third-party
 operator who will manage the day to day operations of the hotel and oversee the other
 business units. Led by Robert Habeeb, a well-respected hotelier, E&M and Hilton have a
 great deal of confidence in their ability to exceed community expectations.
 The concept of an Urban Homewood Suites has been completed in multiple downtown
 markets as part of their revitalization efforts. E&M will be modeling the project from
 examples in Grand Rapids, Mi: Indianapolis, In; and Omaha, Ne. In each of these efforts,


VOSDOCS-#560588-v1-Master_Plan_Commission_Report_for_2019-37P_-_SUP_for_hotel_-_8009_Niles 7
 the impact has been overwhelmingly positive to property values and the guest experience
 that translates to increased revenues to surrounding businesses.
 The addition of a Skybar and Conference space is designed to appeal to professionals from
 25 to 50, provide a venue to host catered events (ie weddings, reunions), and business
 functions. These venues have been highly successful in bringing visitors to the area and are
 designed to promote the tourism of a market. Due to the nature of the events and the
 potential impact to hotel guests, these events are carefully vetted to ensure that they
 comply to hotel and community expectations.
 The Village has engaged Gewalt Hamilton to review traffic impact and other public service
 impact of the project. While we are awaiting their formal findings, they have not identified,
 to date, any issues of intended use that was not already accounted for by the Villages
 master planning. While the efforts continue, we fully intend on complying to meet or exceed
 recommendations put forward by the Village. To that end, E&M has engaged the services of
 Integrated Facilities Solutions, OKW Architects, and Dolan Engineering to act as professional
 liaisons for the project.
 In conclusion, Hilton is a very established and highly valued brand that has driven consistent
 business results by providing the very best in a guest’s experience. It is in our best interest
 to operate the hotel and related businesses in such a way that enhances that relationship.
 In turn, the impact to the community on Public Health, Safety, Morals, and General Welfare
 should only be positive.
 Thank you for your time and consideration for the project. We are honored and
 humbled to be part of this transformative project for Skokie.


STAFF ANALYSIS
Staff Comment and Review requests were sent to all pertinent departments and were
received from Traffic Engineering and Planning. All other departments returned the
requests with no comments regarding the subject case, and/or comments were
provided in related cases. Comments related to the overall development are included in
site plan approval case 2019-36P, and comments that specifically impact this special
use permit case include:


 Traffic Engineering
 Must provide minimum parking required prior to receiving a Certificate of
 Occupancy.
 Homewood Suites 143.0 spaces
 Skybar, Meeting Rooms, etc. 36.2 spaces
 Restaurant A 9.1 spaces
 Restaurant B 4.2 spaces
 Restaurant C 9.8 spaces
 Ground Floor Retail Credit -16.0 spaces
 Total Required 186.0 spaces


VOSDOCS-#560588-v1-Master_Plan_Commission_Report_for_2019-37P_-_SUP_for_hotel_-_8009_Niles 8
 Employee parking was taken into account in the parking calculation. Employees
 must park in the proposed parking garage or parking in the Downtown employee
 parking lots via a permit. Employees should avoid parking in the nearby residential
 area.


 Planning
 A hotel is allowed with a special use permit in the CX Core Mixed-Use district. Items
 not directly associated with the hotel use and Sign Code relief items were covered in
 earlier reports (cases 2019-33P through -36P).
 The Comprehensive Plan of Skokie, Illinois has identified uses for the 4930 Oakton
 Street property as pedestrian oriented mix and the proposed use is in compliance
 with that designation.
 The proposed 143-room Homewood Suites hotel will have a first floor entrance
 lobby, rooms on floors 3 through 8, and have parking in the adjacent parking
 structure to the north of the site. The conceptually-planned parking structure, to be
 approved in the future as a separate case by the Appearance Commission and to
 meet the previously-approved Illinois Science + Technology Park (IS+TP)
 development criteria, is expected to have underground and above grade parking.
 Conceptually, staff supports underground parking for the hotel, at-grade public
 parking, and IS+TP above grade parking.
 A hotel at this location is appropriate as it is in a Downtown location; near
 businesses, entertainment, and transportation; and in a convenient location to out-
 of-town travelers visiting the IS+TP.
 A hotel is restricted along Retail Streets in the Downtown as some elements of the
 operations do not necessarily support pedestrian retail traffic. In this instance, the
 first floor lobby faces Niles Avenue, and the rest of the operations are on the floors
 above; therefore, the potential negative impacts of a hotel lobby along the Retail
 Street are minimal.
 Bicycle parking is anticipated in the right-of-way along Oakton Street and on-site
 and/or within a designated area in the parking garage.
 Sign Package
 The Village of Skokie Downtown Area Sign Guidelines document illustrates sign
 concepts in addition to the Sign Code regulations to ensure uniform signage in
 Downtown Skokie. The proposed sign package will comply with Skokie’s Sign
 Code, subject to the following items of relief:
  Relief from §82-27(c)(5) to allow a wall sign above a 2nd floor window sill.
  Relief from §82-27(d) to allow a 126.5 square-foot ground sign located 0’
 from an interior lot line.
  Relief from §82-27(e) to allow an 84 square-foot internally-illuminated
 blade sign above the second floor window sills.


VOSDOCS-#560588-v1-Master_Plan_Commission_Report_for_2019-37P_-_SUP_for_hotel_-_8009_Niles 9
 Although the proposed blade sign is well-designed and was approved by the
 Appearance Commission, consideration should be given to the precedent that
 may be set with the approval of this large, internally-illuminated sign for
 Downtown buildings. If approved, consideration should be given to updating the
 Village of Skokie Downtown Area Sign Guidelines to ensure any future larger,
 internally-illuminated blade sign meets certain criteria, including the size of the
 building to which it will be attached and the brightness of the display during
 evening hours.


APPEARANCE COMMISSION
At its August 14, 2019, meeting, the Appearance Commission approved the proposed
development as presented, with the requested sign relief (case 2019-024A).


STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff recommends that the petitioner’s request for a special use permit for a hotel at
