BACKGROUND
An application has been filed by Jim and Shannon Ellis, requesting an amendment to Ordinance
Number G24-00 to permit the establishment of a restaurant and a night club, and to construct a
building addition in the ARC overlay district. The subject property is located at 1550 North Randall

building eighty feet to the west. Due to the substantial change in the proposed site layout and since
the site is located in an ARC Arterial Road Corridor Overlay District;the proposed changes require a
planned development approval. The purpose and intent of the ARC overlay district is to ensure
quality development along the city's arterial corridors.
Since the previous approval, the applicant has revised the site plan to provide for foundation
plantings,wrapping the cultured stone veneer foundation around the entire building,and enhancing
the building's west elevation facing Capital Street by adding windows evenly spaced on the second
and third floors (reference Exhibits G, and H).

district with respect to conformance to the provisions for the purpose and intent, and the
location and size of a zoning district.
The purpose of the PORI Office Research Industrial District is to provide a planned industrial
environment that fosters a sense of place and destination within a coordinated campus or park
setting, subject to the provisions of Chapter 19.60, Planned Developments. A PORI zoning
district is most similar to,but departs from the standard requirements of the ORI zoning district.
The purpose and intent of the ARC Arterial Road Corridor Overlay District is to promote and
facilitate the implementation of the objectives, policies, and strategies of the City of Elgin
Comprehensive Plan. The ARC zoning district is a zoning overlay district,and accordingly,
a property located within the district shall also be subject to the regulations of the underlying
zoning district in which it is located.
In general, the purpose and intent of the provision for planned developments is to
accommodate unique development situations. For planned development districts, the
planned development should demonstrate the following characteristics:
1. An opportunity to realize a development of demonstrated need with respect to the
rok types of environment available to the public that would not be possible under the
strict application of the other chapters of this title.
2. A creative approach to the use of land and related improvements resulting in better
design and construction of aesthetic amenities.
3. The preservation of significant natural features including topography,watercourses,
wetlands, and vegetation.
The purpose and intent of the ARC Arterial Road Corridor Overlay District is to promote and
facilitate the implementation of the objectives, policies, and strategies of the City of Elgin
Comprehensive Plan. The ARC zoning district is a zoning overlay district,and accordingly,
a property located within the district shall also be subject to the regulations of the underlying
zoning district in which it is located. The site is currently developed with a wood clad
structure three stories in height. The proposed building materials are in compliance with the
ARC Arterial Road Corridor Overlay District guidelines, and are consistent with the existing
building materials.
H. Comprehensive Plan Standard. The suitability of the subject property for the intended
zoning district with respect to conformance to the goals, objectives, and policies of the
official comprehensive plan.
Findings. The subject property is not suitable for the intended zoning district with respect to
the Comprehensive Plan Standard.

corporate and support office, and limited employee-serving retail uses. These activities
typically locate in business parks. Appropriate locations offer direct access to the arterial
street system, and are close proximity to highways, the freeway system and interchanges.
The proposed development is in conformance with this designation.
I. Natural Preservation Standard. The suitability of the subject property for the intended
planned development with respect to the preservation of all significant natural features
including topography, watercourses,wetlands, and vegetation.
Findings. The subject property is suitable for the intended planned development with
respect to the Natural Preservation Standard.
There are no significant natural features present at the subject property which are worthy of
preservation.
J. Internal Land Use Standard. The suitability of the subject property for the intended
planned development with respect to the land uses permitted within the development being
located, designed, and operated so as to exercise no undue detrimental influence on each
other or on surrounding property.
Findings. The subject property is suitable for the intended planned development with
respect to the internal land use standard.
No evidence has been submitted or found that the proposed planned development will be
located,designed,or operated in a manner that will exercise undue detrimental influence on
itself or surrounding property. The planned district ordinance is intended to prevent undue
detrimental influence on the proposed internal land uses within the subject property and on
surrounding properties.
PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DEPARTURES AND EXCEPTIONS
A planned development may be granted certain departures from the normal standards, regulations,
requirements, and procedures of the zoning ordinance. For the purposes of this section, the most
