 building façade at 2860 Showplace Drive - DEV-0085-2025
 SPEAKER
 Daniel C Shapiro (Deerfield) - Petitioner Naperville Crossings Station LLC All-In
 Hospitality Group, LLC d/b/a Ancho & Agave discussed their request for a minor
 change to the PUD to stain the exterior of their building white which would
 comply with Ancho Agave's nationwide branding.

 Council inquired if the other adjacent properties were in agreement with this
 change, and why staff was not in support of this request.

 Laff stated the reason for staff's recommendation to deny the request is due to
 the color requested. Currently Naperville Crossings exterior is tan and staining
 it white would be inconsistent with the approved PUD for the center.


 A motion was made by Councilman White, seconded by Councilman Kelly to
 concur with the petitioner and pass the ordinance approving a Minor Change to
 the Naperville Crossings PUD to permit staining the Ancho and Agave restaurant

P. NEW BUSINESS:

 City Council vacancies
 Wilson requested support from Council to review the current process for filling
 Council vacancies.

 Council discussed the current process, noting that they have some discretion
 since the State statute is not very specific. They also asked what other cities do
 and discussed whether there have been any legal challenges in the past.

 Krieger stated that there have been no legal challenges and the process has
 remained the same for at least 20 years, with the only possible difference being
 whether candidates are interviewed by Council.

 By consensus, Council directed staff to survey other City's to determine their
 processes for selecting candidates for open Council positions and report back
 to Council with their findings.
