Findings of Fact Planning and Development Commission
Petition 01-08 April 21, 2008
The applicant is requesting PAB Planned Area Business District zoning. The purpose and
intent of the provisions 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 types
of environment available to the public that would not be possible under the strict
application of the other chapters of the zoning ordinance.
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.
Planned districts should be located in substantial conformance to the official comprehensive
plan. The amount of land necessary to constitute a separate planned commercial district
exclusive of rights of way,but including adjoining land or land directly opposite a right of way
shall not be less than two acres. No departure from the requested minimum size of a planned
district shall be granted by City Council.
The purpose of the PAB Planned Neighborhood Business District is to provide for planned
commercial areas supplying daily convenience commodities and services to a neighborhood
population, subject to the provisions of Chapter 19.60, Planned Developments. The scale of
development of a PAB zoning district is limited by the applicable site design regulations due to its
function and resulting close proximity to residences. A PAB zoning district is most similar to,but
departs from the standard requirements of the AB 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.
Findings. The subject property is suitable for the intended zoning district with respect to
conformance to the provision for the purpose and intent, and the location and size of a PAB
Planned Area Business District.
The proposed planned development is in substantial conformance with the purpose and intent of
the planned development and arterial road corridor provisions. The proposed development is
consistent with the established trend of commercial development in the area.
The applicant proposes to construct a quality building that is creatively designed in an urban
style and is of masonry construction. The building materials include split face masonry shear
walls and brick veneer. The proposed landscape plan features materials greater in type and
