CONSIDERATIONS A. Background A petition has been filed by Schaffer-Bonavolonta Architects, Inc . on behalf of Mr. Ralph J. DeMarco requesting a rezoning from R-4 to B-3. The subject property is located at the southeast corner of Todd Farm Drive and North McLean Boulevard (see Exhibits A and B) . eo"° -Page 1- H C� The petitioner intends to develop the subject property with various commercial and office uses . The proposed development is an extension of the Tyler Creek Plaza Shopping center (see Exhibits C and D) . e-- B. Site Characteristics The subject property is approximately 10. 72 acres of which 9. 40 acres, more or less, is developable. The property is unimproved. C. Zoning History The subject property was annexed and zoned R-4 in 1966. D. Surrounding Land Use and Zoning The areas located to the north and east of subject property are zoned R-3 and R-4 . The areas are developed primarily with duplex units and apartments. The area located to the south of the subject property is zoned B-3 and is developed with a shopping center. The area located to the west of the subject property is zoned B-3, B-4 and M-1 . The area is unimproved. E. Trend of Development The current trend is for the growth and development of the commercial area located at the intersection of Big Timber Road and North McLean Boulevard. It is anticipated that the commercial development will eventually extend along both sides of North McLean Boulevard to Todd Farm Drive. F. Comprehensive Plan The major thrust of the land use plan is to establish a framework for development which encourages a balanced, varied, efficient and flexible land use pattern and an equitable sharing of costs . The framework conceptualized for Elgin is based on a functionally interrelated settlement pattern of diverse housing types and densities supported by a system of transportation corridors and service-retail nodes . The subject property is located in an area designated as an "area/village center" and extends north along North McLean Boulevard , which is designated as a "transportation corridor" . Area/village centers represent commercial developments which serve a section of the city or a group f -Page 2- of neighborhoods . V. FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATION The Planning Department recommends approval of Petition 32-85. The area located near the intersection of Big Timber Road and North McLean Boulevard is developing as a commercial center serving the northwest section of Elgin. Todd Farm Drive is the logical northerly boundary for the expansion of this developing commercial area. In view of this trend of development and the findings of the comprehensive plan, the current R-4 zoning classification is unsuitable and the property should be rezoned to B-3 Service Business District . VI . ACTION TAKEN At its regular meeting of August 5, 1985, the Land Use Committee recommended approval of Petition 32-85 by a vote of seven (7) yes and zero (0) no (see Exhibits E and F) . row r -Page 3- 1. 133!

C \111— W •Ono :Z7-31= �l•1 • II 9.40 ACRE LAND ADJACENT TO TYLER CREEK SHOPPING CENTER The petition for Rezoning is required in order to expand the existing shopping center. We also have tenants for the Office - Professional Building. The current R-4 Zoning does not allow the construction.of Business Users on the subject property. The property has appropriate means of ingress and egress on to a principal street along which traffic can be properly controlled by means of the existing traffic control devices located adjacent to the Site. The construction, operation and maintenance of an Office Building and Shopping Center within the B-3 DISTRICT would certainly not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent or adjoining properties or increase the hazard from fire or other dangers. The contemplated improvement will require additional public services, (public water and sewage disposal facilities) such an improvement will also create a substantial property tax base , thus generating additional tax revenue for the City and would , therefore, not diminish the value of land and buildings in the immediate vicinity; that with efficient design of ingress and egress the subsequent development will not unduly increase traffic congestion in the public streets or otherwise adversely affect the continued development of adjacent or adjoining properties and that to deny the requested Variations and Special Use would be unreasonable and could cause considerable hardship or practical difficulties for the Owner/Petitioner.

Trend of Development: The current trend is for the growth and development of the commercial area located at the intersection of Big Timber Road and North McLean Boulevard. It is anticipated that the commercial development will eventually extend along both sides of North McLean Boulevard to Todd Farm Drive. E. Comprehensive Plan: The major thrust of the land use plan is to establish a framework for development which encourages a balanced , varied, efficient and flexible land use pattern and an equitable sharing of costs. The framework conceptualized for Elgin is based on a functionally interrelated settlement pattern of diverse housing types and densities supported by a system of transportation corridors and service-retail nodes.
