SUBJECT: Kane County Rezoning Request : F to R-1
Nathan Steffen, et ux
PURPOSE
Consideration of a request to reclassify property located in
unincorporated Kane County from F to R-1; by Nathan and
Marilyn Steffen, as applicants and owners. The subject
property is located at 38W640 Highland Avenue .
BACKGROUND
The City of Elgin has received notice from the Building and
Zoning Division of the Kane County Development Department of a
request to reclassify property located in unincorporated Kane
[ County from F to R-1 . The subject property is located on the
north side of Highland Avenue, approximately 700 feet east of
Coombs Road.
The applicants propose to rezone the subject property from
Kane County F to R-1, and to divide the property to create a
building site for a second single family residence. Kane
County officials indicate that the property owners intend to
divide the subject property under an exemption to the Plat
Act . The 3 . 9 acre parcel is improved with a single family
residence and accessory buildings (reference attached peti-
tioner' s statement, location map, and plat of survey) .
The subject property is located within the City of Elgin' s one
and one-half mile extraterritorial planning and subdivision
jurisdiction. Accordingly, the City of Elgin may object to
the rezoning request requiring Kane County approval by a
super-majority vote. Additionally, the City can impose its
Subdivision Ordinance requirements in those instances where
subdivision approval is sought .
Since 1978, the City of Elgin has routinely objected to county
zoning petitions which conflict with the land use designations
in the Elgin jurisdictional planning area. In particular, the
fek City has objected to those county zoning petitions which, if
approved, would reinforce a development pattern which might
impede Elgin' s planned growth.
FINDINGS
The Planning and Development Commission has made the following
findings concerning the requested reclassification of property
in unincorporated Kane County:
A. Site Characteristics: The subject property contains 3 . 9
acres . The property is improved with a single family
residence and accessory buildings . The property is
wooded.
B. Surrounding Land Use: The property is surrounded on the
north, south, and west with estate residences and some
commercial enterprises . The area located to the east of
the subject property is in agricultural use.
C. Utilities: There is sufficient area to divide the
subject property and create a second lot meeting the
county requirements for utility service with a private
septic system and well . The subject property is located
in planned service areas for municipal sanitary sewer and
water systems . The City has invested substantially in
sewer and water capital improvements in order to serve
the Elgin Planning Area. Additional county development
will compromise the potential recovery of capital im-
provement investments . The subject property is located
within planned service areas for municipal sewer (Tyler
Creek Interceptor Sewer) and water (West Pressure Zone)
systems .
D. Far West Area Plan: The subject property, and much of
the surrounding area, is designated "urban residential"
in the Far West Area Plan. The Far West Area Plan repre-
sents a commitment by the City of Elgin to quality land
resource management; directing a balance among the need
for development, the cost of development, and the conser-
vation of the natural environment . If the City is to
realize the benefits of its commitments to planning in
the Far West Area, it must exercise its control over
development in the area to the greatest extent possible .
FINANCIAL IMPACT
None .
J*1/LEGAL IMPACT
None.
ALTERNATIVES
1 . Object to the rezoning request requiring that the re-
quested zoning action be approved by a super-majority
vote .
2 . Take no position.
RECOMMENDATION
In view of the above findings, the Planning and Development
Commission recommends that the City object to the requested
change from Kane County F to R-1, requiring approval by a
super-majority vote . On a motion to object to the Kane County
rezoning request, the vote was (7) yes and (0) no.
