I. SUBJECT

Residence District and to R-2 Single Family Residence
District with a Special Use for a Planned Unit Development
and Preliminary Plan Approval for a Residential Subdivision
to be known as Bayfield Farms, property located North of
Congdon Avenue and East of the Blackhawk Residential
Subdivision by the Kimball Hill Corporation, as Applicant and
the Stewart Warner Corporation, as Owner.
II. CONSIDERATIONS
A petition has been filed by Kimball Hill, Incorporated
requesting a rezoning from M-1 Limited Manufacturing District
to R-2 Single Family Residence District, special use approval
for an R-2 Planned Unit Development , and preliminary plan
approval for a subdivision to be named Bayfield Farms. The
subject property is located north of Congdon Avenue and east
of Blackhawk Manor Subdivision.
The petitioner proposes to subdivide the subject property and
develop it with 356 single family homes. Approximately 51
acres of the proposed 98. 757 acre subdivision would be
developed as an R-2 Planned Unit Development.
III. FINDINGS
The Planning Committee reviewed the proposed rezonings and
special use for a planned unit development on June 15, 1988.
The petitioner testified at the meeting and presented
documentary evidence. No objectors appeared at the meeting
and no written objection has been filed.
The Planning Committee has made the following findings with
respect to Petition 36-88:
A. Site Characteristics: The subject property contains
98.757 acres. The property is part of a larger parcel of
land which contains 128.631 acres.
A line of trees exists along the westerly 100 feet of the
subject property. The remainder of the property has been
-Page 1-
Exhibit A
in agricultural use.
The subject property is gently rolling. Elevations range
from 800 to 820 feet.
B. Sewer and Water: The subject property is proposed to be
serviced from an 18 inch sanitary sewer which is located
at the southeast corner of the Waverly Commons Townhomes.
The sewer system would extend north, through a single
family subdivision proposed to be located south of
Congdon Avenue, to the subject property.
The subject property is proposed to be serviced from a 12
inch watermain located along Congdon Avenue and looped
through watermains serving Blackhawk Manor Subdivision.
Stormwater is proposed to be collected onsite and
transmitted to a natural wetland area located south of
Congdon Avenue.
C. Traffic and Parking: The proposed subdivision features
one point of direct access to Congdon Avenue and indirect
access to Congdon Avenue via Stewart Warner Drive. The
proposed subdivision would also be accessible through
local streets serving Blackhawk Manor Subdivision. These
streets (Huron, Stewart, Elma and Ford) presently
terminate at the west line of the subject property.
Congdon Avenue functions as an east/west arterial street
serving the northeast side of the city. Congdon Avenue
has a design capacity of approximately 12,000 vehicles
per day and carries approximately 5,800 vehicles per day
(at Dundee Avenue) .
The local streets serving Blackhawk Manor Subdivision
have a design capacity of approximately 8,000 vehicles
per day. These streets carry between 200 and 1 ,400
vehicles per day. Single family residences generate
approximately ten vehicle trips per day. Accordingly,
subdivision could generate 3,560 vehicle trips per day.
The off-street parking requirement for single family
residences is two spaces per dwelling unit. Required
off-street parking must be provided on each lot.

zoned M-1 in 1970.
E. Zoning Status : The subject
property is of adequate size
and shape to be developed in accordance with the existing
-Page 2-
M-1 District standards or the proposed R-2 District
standards.
F. Surrounding Land Use and Zoning: The area located to the
north of the subject property is zoned M-1 . The area is
developed with the Northwest Tollway. Toastmaster
Corporation is located at the northeast corner of the
larger parcel of land, of which, the subject property is
a part.
The area located to the east of the subject property is
zoned Cook County R-4 Single Family Residence District .
With the exception of some single family homes located
along Shoe Factory Road, the area is in agricultural use.
The area located to the south of the subject property is
zoned R-2. The area is in agricultural use. The
petitioner is proposing to develop this area with single
family homes.
The area located to the west of the subject property is
zoned R-2 and R-4. The area is developed with single
family homes and apartments.
G. Trend of Development: The trend of development along
Congdon Avenue has been a continuation of urban
residential development.
H. Comprehensive Plan: The north one-half of the subject
property is designated Office, Research and Light
Manufacturing. The south one-half of the property is
designated Urban Residential.
I. P.U.D. Departures: The petitioner is requesting approval
to develop the area proposed to be zoned R-2 P.U.D.
subject to the following departures from the strict
application of the zoning and subdivision regulations :
1 . To allow the construction of local streets with a
design radii of less than the required 300 feet, but
not less than 200 feet.
2. To allow the platting of lots with a lot area less
than the required 7,500 square feet, but not less
than 6,000 square feet.
J. Suitability of Present Zoning: In view of the
surrounding land use and zoning, the trend of development
in the area, and the goals, objectives, and policies of
the Comprehensive Plan, the current M-1 Limited
Manufacturing District zoning is unsuitable, and the
subject property should be rezoned to R-2 Single Family
Residence District.
L. Planned Unit Development Standards: The proposed planned
-Page 3-
unit development is in substantial conformance with the
planned unit development standards.
L. Conditions for Approval: The Planning Committee is of
the opinion that approval of Petition 36-88 should be
subject to the following conditions:
1 . Revisions to the Preliminary Plan and Preliminary
Engineering Plan per the Engineering Division and the
Planning Department.

ordinances.
IV. RECOMMENDATION
On a motion to recommend approval of Petition 36-88, subject
to the conditions for approval, the vote was six (6) yes,
