PLAN COMMISSION REPORT 2020-12P: Special Use Permit
Plan Commission Council Chambers, 8:00 PM, June 7, 2021


To: Mayor and Board of Trustees
From: Paul Luke, Plan Commission Chairperson
Re: 2020-12P: Special Use Permit

PLAN COMMISSION ANALYSIS
During its October 1, 2020, meeting, the Plan Commission heard a request for a special
use permit for outdoor storage in conjunction with BCLS Landscaping in an M2 Light
Industry zoning district and any relief that may be discovered during the review of this
case.
Although the site is an aesthetic improvement to the previous use, the property is already
being used for outdoor storage and has been since well before this petition. Some of the
existing site improvements were made without prior review by the Village. This special
use permit will legalize the use of the site and correct previous and current deficiencies,
including the completion of the fencing, removing parking spaces that encroach into the
right-of-way, and improved parking lot and driveway surfaces. The Commission has
included enforceable timelines for required improvements in the recommended conditions.
The petitioner has provided all the requested corrections to the site and landscaping
plans.
Discussion from the Commission included whether corrective actions should have been
completed before the hearing of the case and praise for the clean-up and beautification
efforts by the petitioner.
No additional relief was discovered during the review of this case. Additional analysis and
the discussion can be found in the attached Staff Report and meeting minutes.


INTERESTED PARTIES
Legal notice was advertised, posted, and delivered to property owners in the area as
prescribed by the Zoning chapter of the Village Code. No interested parties provided
testimony at the hearing.


APPEARANCE COMMISSION
This petition did not need to be reviewed by the Appearance Commission.


PLAN COMMISSION RECOMMENDATIONS AND VOTING
The Plan Commission recommended, by a vote of 9 ayes and 0 nays, that the petitioner’s
request for a special use permit for a special use permit for outdoor storage at 5550

Case Description:
2020-12P – Special Use Permit: 5550 Howard Street
Chicago Title Land Company, a corporation of Illinois as trustee under the provisions of a
certain trust agreement dated November 6, 2018, and known as Trust Number 8002379462,
requests a special use permit for outdoor storage in conjunction with BCLS Landscaping in
an M2 Light Industry zoning district and any relief that may be discovered during the review
of this case.
PINs: 10-28-215-034-0000 and 10-28-215-035-0000

Discussion and Interested Parties
Legal notice was determined to be proper and correct at a prior Plan Commission meeting.
At that time staff requested a continuation to this date.
William Szydlowski, president of BCLS, presented the case and gave a brief timeline of
events. The previous owner, Harig Industries, submitted plans in 2015 for expanding the
site including putting up a new building. The right-of-way in front of the curb on Howard
Street was expanded. He purchased the property 18 months ago and those submitted
plans have been discarded. He wishes to continue using the existing building (not used for
daily operations) and obtain a special use permit for outdoor storage of landscape material
and equipment.
Staff requested that the report be accepted as presented. Outdoor storage without a
principal use is not allowed. This is clearly an expansion since the property was most
recently left vacant. Staff is recommending that MWRD needs to be involved for code
compliance. Despite several issues, they are recommending approval. Civil plans were
VOSDOCS-#588644-v1-Master_Plan_Commission_Report_for_2020-
12P__special_use_permit_for_outdoor_storage_at_5550_Howard

 6 of 13
never submitted or reviewed; an occupancy permit was never issued for the building; the
parking spaces in the right-of-way need to be removed, and the parking spaces need to be
on an approved paved surface – not gravel or stone.
Mr. Szydlowski spoke with the Village’s senior engineer, Russ Rietveld, for his interpretation
and recommendations prior to this meeting. There are no additions or reductions to the
grade or water shed other than the front berm for landscaping and therefore he foresees
no need for a MWRD review, but the petitioner will reach out to them anyway.
A commissioner suggested waiting until the violations have been cleared before continuing
the process towards Village Board final approval. It is his opinion that the case is not “ripe”
yet. He asked staff if a special use permit was ever approved with so much yet to be
finished. Staff is assigning a 60-day deadline after the Village Board meeting to complete
the fencing and submit scaled plans. Staff added that the use is already operational and
once an ordinance is passed and items are not completed within the timeframe, staff would
be in control for enforcement by requiring them to come back for terms to be amended or
by administrative hearings and tickets. The commissioner voiced his dislike for the order
that it is being handled but is in favor of having the use reach compliance. The chairman
stated that it is a unique case and staff has come up with a solution and is being more
tolerant. The petitioner stated that was acceptable; financially he can do it, but weather
conditions must be right to set the fenceposts into the ground. Currently, the fence is
about 45% complete.
Another commissioner commented that he drives past the site regularly and the petitioner’s
clean-up efforts have made a huge improvement to the property. Mr. Szydlowski stated
that his intention was never to sneak in a storage facility. He cleared out 4 or 5 abandoned
vehicles and over 70 loads of debris. He removed dead and infected trees and planted at
least 35 new ones. He installed security cameras and lighting for the 60-70 snow plows
being stored on-site until they are staged on job sites. He didn’t know that what he did
was not a positive thing. He plans on being there for a long time and is committed to be a
responsible property owner. Since he is a landscape company, he hopes to use his
property as a way to advertise his business to the public.
There were no public comments submitted regarding this case.
Recommendations and Voting
A motion was made to accept staff’s recommendations including all conditions and
timeframes as presented for a special use permit for outdoor storage in conjunction with
BCLS Landscaping in an M2 Light Industry zoning district at 5550 Howard Street.

Motion: S. Berman Second: J. Burman
Ayes: 9
Nays: 0

The chairman welcomed Commissioner Keith Robinson to his 1st meeting and announced
that this meeting was the last one for Commissioners Scott Berman and Dakshes Laxpati.
The Commission thanked them for their devotion, time, and service to the Village of Skokie
and wished them well.

STAFF ANALYSIS
This case was originally prepared for the September 3, 2020. Staff had requested that
the case be continued pending the resolution of certain items. After the writing of the
original Staff Report for the September 3 hearing, the petitioner submitted a response
letter to that report, which was provided to the Commissioners at that public hearing.
This report reflects both the petitioner’s and Staff’s response.

Petitioner’s Submittal
The petitioner is requesting approval for a special use permit for outdoor storage for
BCLS, Inc. and any relief discovered during the review of this case.
The President of BCLS, Inc. submitted the following statement:
 Thank you for reviewing BCLS's application for special use outdoor storage at 5550
 Howard St.
 Since BCLS purchased the property 18 months ago, we immediately started the clean up
 process. The property was previously vacant for some time. We removed over 70 semi
 loads of debris and waste resulting from the property being used for illegal dumping.
 BCLS informed all adjacent property owners that their abandoned vehicles and unsightly
 materials needed to be cleared from the property.
 BCLS removed all dead, diseased, and compromised trees (qty=215) and posted
 $9500.00 tree bond with the Village of Skokie. BCLS also cleared weeds and unwanted
 incidental vegetation from the property.
 We installed a planting area aligning Howard St. frontage with over twenty premium
 specimen 3 ½” trees. BCLS applied for and was granted a fence permit for the property.
 We have installed 300' of wrought iron fence on the Howard frontage and are continuing
 to completely fence in the property. (We are running behind with all the disruptions due
 to the current pandemic situation.)
 BCLS does occupy the on-site 5,500 sq. ft building. It is used primarily for storage of off-
 season equipment. We do have an office where our computer system and
 surveillance/security hardware are located. It is used for on-site tracking of equipment
 and material, monitoring of surveillance footage as well as other paperwork tasks. The
 parking lot for the building has been restriped and is utilized for those working in the
 office as it has from the previous owners for 56 years.
 BCLS will use said site to orderly store equipment, plants, and materials. The property is
 maintained on a weekly basis. BCLS patrols the property regularly and has preventatively
 treated area for mosquitos and rodents.
 BCLS is in no way negatively affected any business or esthetics of the area. In fact, we
 have been complimented regularly on how clean, neat, and aesthetically pleasing the
 area looks, especially compared to its prior condition. We will continue to plant trees and
 material to further improve the site. We take pride in the property and will adorn it in

 seasonal displays and lighting to make it an attractive addition to the Howard frontage of
 the Village of Skokie.
 Thank you for your consideration.


Comments
Staff review requests were sent to all pertinent departments. Staff comments on the
subject case were received from the Forestry, Engineering, and Planning Divisions. All
other departments had no comments.


Forestry Division
The Forestry Division notes that tree number 703 on the tree survey is dead in the field
and needs to be removed. The other trees look good. Forestry would also like to thank
the petitioner for saving as many trees as they did.


Engineering Division
As was stated in the petitioner’s preliminary plan reviews, at least 2 of the existing
parking spaces south of the building are now in the public right-of-way following the
dedication of land from the previous subdivision (2015-10P) and site plan approval
(2015-12P). This portion of the existing parking area needs to be removed and restored
to approved parkway landscaping. The easternmost Howard street curb cut should also
be removed.

An MWRD permit determination shall be obtained with respect to the work performed
to date.

All areas for required parking must be paved, drained, curbed, and landscaped to
Village standards. The parking requirement for landscaping services is 1 space for each
1,500 ft2 of net building floor area, plus 1 parking space for each employee, plus 1
parking space for each vehicle owned, rented, or leased by the business. The number
of required parking spaces for this use is then 6 plus 1 for each vehicle owned, renter
or leased by the business.



Planning Division
Planning is supportive of the petitioner’s request and acknowledges that much of the
site is an aesthetic improvement from the previously undeveloped site; however, the
property is already being used for outdoor storage and has been since well before this
petition and the current health crisis. Some of the existing site improvements were
made without prior review by the Village. The completion of the fencing and the

12P__special_use_permit_for_outdoor_storage_at_5550_Howard

 10 of 13
improvements required by the Engineering Division to the parking and driveway need to
be made immediately. Staff is recommending enforceable timelines for required
improvements be included in the conditions of the Special Use Permit ordinance.
Since the first public hearing, it was determined that the PIN consolidation petition was
received by Cook County, but they are behind in processing those requests. The
petitioner did provide information on employment, but the number of vehicles owned,
rented, or leased by the business associated with occupancy of 5550 Howard Street is
still needed.
Engineering has modified and reduced the scope of its requirements for the civil
drawings; however, the fact that new buildings are not being constructed on the site
does not negate the need to bring other portions of the site into conformance with the
Village Code. The site is being used for outdoor storage, which was previously vacant
woods and underbrush, is a clear intensification of the use that would require the
requested improvements.



APPEARANCE COMMISSION
This petition does not need to be reviewed by the Appearance Commission.

STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS

storage at 5550 Howard Street be APPROVED based upon the Proposed Positive
