BACKGROUND
By Amsterdam Property Group, L.L.C., as applicant, and Meijer Stores Limited Partnership, as
property owner, requesting approval of a preliminary and final plat of subdivision and of an
amendment to the existing PAB Planned Area Business District Ordinance No. G40-06, as
amended by Ordinance G11-15,to construct a new multi-ten nt retail building as an outlot in front
of the Meijer store at the property commonly referred to as 8115 South Randall Road. The subject
property is zoned PAB Planned Area Business District and ARC Arterial Road Corridor Overlay
District.
The subject property is part of the Meijer store site, which is Lot 1 of the Woodbridge North
Commercial Subdivision located at the southeast corner of S. Randall Road and College Green
Drive. The commercial subdivision and the existing Meijer sore were approved in 1999. In 2015,
the City approved the final plat of subdivision for the first dutlot in front of the Meijer store for
the existing Starbucks restaurant at 821 S. Randall Road.
The commercial subdivision is surrounded by the Sierra Ride townhome community zoned PRC
Planned Residence Conservation District on the east, and the southern portion of the Woodbridge
North Commercial Subdivision on the south with Menards store and other commercial outlots
along S. Randall Road. The properties to the west across S. Randall Road are zoned SFR2 Single
Family Residence District and are improved with single-family homes. The properties to the north
across College Green Drive are improved with townhomes, zoned PRC Planned Residence
Conservation District, and are part of the Townhomes of Woodbridge subdivision.

Figure 3.Proposed outlot for multi-tenant retail building. Figure 4.Landscape plan for the proposed outlot.
To create a cohesive look of the new outlot buildings, the exterior of the proposed building would
be constructed of brick masonry with a color to match the exterior of the Starbucks building.
Similarly, the storefronts would include black awnings to match the black awnings on the
Starbucks building, and the new parking lot light fixtures would be the same as those installed on
the Starbucks site.The applicant would install new landscaping throughout the site,a new sidewalk
connection to the existing public sidewalk along the east side of S. Randall Road, and a sidewalk
connection to the south property line shared with the Starbucks property. Final completion of the
pedestrian connection to the Starbucks building with a crosswalk across the drive-through lane and
sidewalk completion in front of Starbucks building would be completed by the owners of the
Starbucks property in the future.
Parking
The proposed building is required to have a total of 46 parking spaces based on the requirement
for one parking space per 250 square feet of medical office space and vacant commercial space,
plus one parking space per 45 square feet of floor area of the carry-out restaurant. The proposed
site requires a departure from the parking requirement as it includes 26 parking spaces. The
development will, however, have cross-access and cross-parking agreements with the adjacent
Meijer and Starbucks properties where sufficient parking exists to meet the parking needs of all
uses.
The applicant has submitted a parking study to demonstrate that, after the construction of the new
building, adequate parking would remain on site to meet the parking needs of the Meijer store, the
Meijer gas station, Starbucks restaurant, the subject multi-tenant retail building, and a future fast-

food restaurant(application to be submitted in the near future). The entire site currently has a total
of 969 parking spaces, however, only 38 percent (363 of 969 spaces) are occupied during peak
parking demand on Sundays.
After the completion of the proposed multi-tenant building, 901 parking spaces would be located
on the entire site, including the Meijer store, Meijer gas station, Starbucks site, and the subject
multi-tenant retail building. With the proposed building, the gntire site would be required to have
a total of 848 parking spaces.
The parking study contemplated the future construction of stand-alone, fast-food restaurant. After
the completion of this restaurant, 817 parking spaces would bp located on the entire site. With the
future fast-food restaurant,the entire site would be required to have 897 parking spaces. However,
the parking study concludes that, after the completion of the subject multi-tenant retail building
and the future fast-food restaurant, the peak parking occupancy would still only be approximately
55 percent(457 of 817 spaces). As such,more than adequate parking would remain on site to meet
the parking needs of all uses.

The Community Development Department offers the followilg additional information:
A. Property History. The subject property was annexed to the city in 1989 and zoned B-3
Service Business District with a special use approval for a commercial planned
development. In 1992,the property was reclassified to PAB Planned Area Business District
as part of the comprehensive amendment to the zoning ordinance.
In 1999,the city approved the Woodbridge North Commercial Subdivision with the Meijer
store on Lot 1 and Menards store on Lot 2. Later in 1999,the city approved a resubdivision
of Lot 2 to include five outlots in front of Menards. Ir 2015, the city approved a final plat
of subdivision and an amendment to the PAB Planned Area Business District by Ordinance

Recommendation & Findings of Fact
Petition 39-18 and 40-18
November 5, 2018
No. G11-15 for the first outlot in front of the Meijer st re for the construction of Starbucks.
B. Surrounding Land Use and Zoning. The propertie to the east are zoned PRC Planned
Residence Conservation District and are improved ith townhomes that are part of the
Sierra Ridge townhome community. The properties to the south are zoned PAB Planned
Area Business District and ARC Arterial Road Corridor Overlay District and are part of
the southern portion of the Woodbridge North Comme cial Subdivision improved with the
Menards store and several commercial retail outlot b ildings. The properties to the west
across S.Randall Road are zoned SFR2 Single Family ' esidence District and are improved
with single-family homes. The properties to the no h across College Green Drive are
zoned PRC Planned Residence Conservation District and are improved with townhomes
that are part of the Townhomes of Woodbridge subdi ision.
C. Comprehensive Plan. The subject property is design;ted as Corridor Commercial by the
City's 2018 Comprehensive Plan and Design Guideli es. Located along the City's heavily
traveled corridors and intersections, Corridor Comme cial areas provide retail services to
both local and regional consumer bases. These areas contain a mix of retail from large
community centers with multiple tenants to smalle stand-along businesses. Corridor
Commercial areas are the most widely accommoda ling and ranging commercial areas
within the city. Corridor Commercial areas are auto-o 'ented by nature but should also be
enhanced to be pedestrian-friendly.
D. Zoning District. The purpose and intent of this AB zoning district is to provide
commodities and services to the community and reg on. A PAB zoning district is most
similar to,but departs from the standard requirements of the AB zoning district.
E. Trend of Development. The subject property is located along the Randall Road
commercial corridor. Over the last 20 years, Randall Road has developed into one of City's
primary commercial retail corridors with a wide range of retail and service uses serving
city residents. Due to its high volume of traffic as Kan• County's primary arterial road,the
uses along Randall Road also provide services to residents from other surrounding
communities. Most developments along Randall Road are auto-oriented with surface
parking lots in front of small and large one-story commercial buildings. Typical uses
include fast-food, fast-casual, and sit-down restauran is, general retail stores, and service-
oriented establishments, such as banks, salons, med cal and dental offices, and motor-
vehicle service stations and repair shops.
FINDINGS
After due notice as required by law, the Planning & Zoni g Commission conducted a public
hearing in consideration of Petitions 39-18 and 40-18 on ovember 5, 2018. Testimony was

Development Department submitted a Development Applica ion Review and Written Findings &
Recommendation to the Planning&Zoning Commission dat d November 5, 2018.
The Community Development Department and the Plannin & Zoning Commission have made
the following findings regarding this application against t e standards for map amendments
outlined within § 19.55.030, the standards for planned developments outlined within § 19.60.040,
and standards for conditional uses outlined within § 19.65.03 :
STANDARDS FOR MAP AMENDMENTS AND PLANKED DEVELOPMENTS
A. Site Characteristics Standard. The suitability of t ,e subject property for the intended
zoning district with respect to its size, shape, sig ificant natural features including
topography, watercourses and vegetation and existin, improvements.
Findings. The subject property is suitable for the intended zoning district with respect to
its size, shape, significant features including topogr,phy, watercourses, vegetation, and
existing improvements.The 26-acre Meijer site includ s the approximately 190,000-square
foot Meijer grocery and general goods store, Meijer gas station, Starbucks outlot, and a
total of 969 parking spaces. With only 38 percent oi parking occupied during the peak
times,the site can accommodate additional outlots.Th- proposed 33,408-square foot outlot
would be located immediately north of the Starbuck' outlot along S. Randall Road. The
proposed outlot would include a 6,006-square foot, multi-tenant retail building and an
accessory parking lot with 26 parking spaces. The proposed development would replace
94 parking spaces currently within the Meijer parkin El lot. The proposed site layout would
seamlessly connect to the existing Meijer and Sta bucks parking lots which provide
connections to College Green Drive on the north,Bow-s Road on the south,and a restricted
right-in-right-out driveway to S. Randall Road so th of Starbucks. The site has no
significant natural features, such as topography, wat•rcourses, or vegetation, or existing
improvements that would have a negative impact on t e proposed development.
B. Sewer and Water Standard. The suitability of the sus'ect property for the intended zoning
district with respect to the availability of adequate M nicipal water, wastewater treatment
and stormwater control facilities.
Findings. The subject property is suitable for the int:nded zoning district with respect to
the availability of adequate water, sanitary treatmen i, and storm water control facilities.
The applicant would connect to the existing sanitary and water service facilities located
within the Meijer parking lot.The development would result in reduced impervious surface
as it replaces an existing parking lot area with 94 parki g spaces. The existing facilities can
adequately serve the existing uses and the proposed u.e on the property.
C. Traffic and Parking Standard. The suitability oft e subject property for the intended
zoning district with respect to the provision of sa'' and efficient on-site and off-site

vehicular circulation designed to minimize traffic coni estion.
1. Nonresidential land uses should be located cen al and accessible to the area or
population served without requiring traffic move ents through or into a residential
neighborhood. Nonresidential land uses should not be located within residential
neighborhoods, but on their periphery as defined b the "arterial street"[SR]system.
2. The number of locations for vehicular access to or om a public right of way should be
limited to those which are necessary for the re,sonable use of the property and
consistent with current traffic engineering stand,rds. Property with two (2) street
frontages should not be permitted access to or fro the street with the higher degree of
continuity within the overall street system or with the higher traffic volume. With the
exception of residential driveways, locations for v•hicular access to or from a public
right of way should be aligned directly opposite e 'fisting or approved locations across
the street.
The subject property is suitable for the intended zonin ti district with respect to the provision
of safe and efficient on-site and off-site vehicular circ lation designed to minimize traffic
congestion.
The proposed outlot would not have a direct acces. to S. Randall Road. Instead, the
proposed development would seamlessly connect to the existing Meijer and Starbucks
parking lots and gain access through such parking lots o College Green Drive on the north,
Bowes Road on the south and a restricted right-in-ri t-out driveway to S. Randall Road
south of Starbucks. The proposed development will of have any negative effect on the
current on-site or off-site vehicular improvements, w ich maintain congestion-free traffic
circulation.
The proposed development is required to have 46 par i'ng spaces based on the requirement
for one parking space per 250 square feet of floor ar-: for medical office use and general
retail uses, plus one parking space per 45 square feet •f floor area for the proposed carry-
out restaurant. With 26 parking spaces proposed, th- proposed development requires a
departure from the parking requirement.
The applicant has submitted a parking analysis to demonstrate that adequate parking exists
on the overall Meijer site to meet the parking need, of all existing and proposed uses.
Currently, only 38percent of the existing parking lot s occupied during the peak parking
demand on Sundays. After the completion of the roposed multi-tenant building, the
number of parking spaces would be reduced from 9.9 to 901 across the entire shopping
center, including the Meijer store, Meijer gas statio , Starbucks, and the subject multi-
tenant retail building outlot. With the proposed buil i ing, the shopping center would be
required to have 848 parking spaces. The proposed d;velopment would have cross-access
and cross-parking agreements with the Meijer prop. 1 , Starbucks, and any future outlots.

Findings.The property is suitable for the intended zo 'ng district with respect to the length
of time the property has remained undeveloped or unu.ed in its current zoning district.The
26-acre Meijer site was approved in 1999. In 2015, e city approved the first outlot in
front of Meijer for the Starbucks restaurant. With 96• parking spaces and only 38 percent
occupancy during the peak times on Sundays, a larg, portion of the existing parking lot
furthest away from the Meijer store remains unused. I e proposed outlot would replace 94
parking spaces furthest away from Meijer and immed'ately north of the existing Starbucks
outlot. The proposed uses (carry-out restaurant and physical therapy medical office) are
consistent with the surrounding uses and the genera trend of commercial development
along Randall Road. Based on the anticipated parkin_ demand, the property is well suited
to support additional outlets in the future.
E. Surrounding Land Use and Zoning Standard. The .uitability of the subject property for
the intended zoning district with respect to consisten and compatibility with surrounding

high volume of traffic as Kane County's primary arte al road,the uses along Randall Road
also provide services to residents from other surround. g communities.Most developments
along Randall Road are auto-oriented with surface p.i king lots in front of small and large
one-story commercial buildings. Typical uses includ; fast-food, fast-casual, and sit-down

purpose and intent, and the location and size of a zo ,'ng district.
Findings. The property is suitable for the inter. -a zoning district with respect to
conformance to the provisions for the purpose and ' tent and the location and size of the
zoning district. The purpose and intent of this AB zoning district is to provide
commodities and services to the community and re:i.on. A PAB zoning district is most
similar to, but departs from the standard requirem:nts of the AB zoning district. The
proposed uses(carry-out restaurant and physical therapy medical office)are consistent with
the surrounding uses and the general trend of co ercial development along Randall
Road.
H. Comprehensive Plan Standard. The suitability of te subject property for the intended
zoning district with respect to conformance to the : •als, objectives, and policies of the

Findings. The subject property is suitable for the int ded zoning district with respect to
conformance to the goals,objectives,and policies of e Official Comprehensive Plan.The
subject property is designated as Corridor Commerci.1 by the City's 2018 Comprehensive
Plan and Design Guidelines. Located along the Ci 's heavily traveled corridors and

permitted on the subject property.
Findings. This standard is not applicable. The applic tis requesting approval of a map
amendment to the existing planned development.
J. Natural Preservation Standard. The suitability oft e subject property for the intended
planned development with respect to the preservatio of all significant natural features
including topography, watercourses, wetlands, and v.:etation.
Findings. The subject property is suitable for the i tended planned development with
respect to the preservation of all significant natu al features including topography,
watercourses, wetlands, and vegetation. No signs ficant natural features including
topography, watercourses, wetlands, and vegetation I urrently exist on the property. The
proposed development would replace 94 parking sp.ces furthest away from the Meijer
store and immediately north of the Starbucks restau ant. The proposed site plan would
result in less impervious surface than the existing par ing lot. As such, the proposal does
not have any impact on the existing limited natura features of the already developed
property.
K. Internal Land Use. The suitability of the subject property for the intended planned
development with respect to the land uses permitted w thin the development being located,
designed, and operated so as to exercise no undue de rimental influence on each other or
on surrounding property.
Findings. The subject property is suitable for the i tended planned development with
respect to the land uses permitted within the develosment being located, designed, and
operated so as to exercise no undue detrimental influe ce on each other or on surrounding
properties. All proposed uses are compatible with oth-r uses already allowed in this PAB
District. The proposed carry-out restaurant and the ph,sical therapy medial office use will
not have any negative effect on the existing Meijer store and Starbucks restaurant.
The proposed site layout will seamlessly connect to the existing Meijer and Starbucks
parking lots. The parking study submitted demonstr.tes that only 38 percent of existing
parking on site is occupied during the peak times on Sundays. Therefore, the site can
accommodate the proposed outlot development witho t any negative effect on the parking
supply for the other existing uses on the property.
PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DEPARTURES AND EXCEPTIONS
The applicant is requesting the following departures from the requirements of the zoning
ordinance:
- 11 -
Recommendation & Findings of Fact
Petition 39-18 and 40-18
November 5, 2018
1. Section 19.45.080, "Table of Required Parking The proposed 6,006-square foot
building is required to have a total of 46 parking spa es based on the requirement for one
parking space per 250 square feet of medical office pace and vacant commercial space,
plus one parking space per 45 square feet of floor a ea of the carry-out restaurant. The
proposed site layout includes a total of 26 parking sp.ces.
Staff finds the proposed parking departure is appropriate as the property will have cross-access
and cross-parking agreements with the adjacent Meijer and Starbucks properties where excess
parking exists. The applicant has submitted a parking analys s which shows that only 38 percent
of the existing parking (363 of 969 spaces) on the overall eijer property are occupied during
peak times on Sundays. The proposed development would re•lace 94 parking spaces immediately
north of Starbucks restaurant which are rarely occupied. A`er the completion of the proposed
multi-tenant retail building, the entire site would be required io have a total of 848 parking spaces,
while a total of 901 parking spaces would be available. Adeq ate parking exists on the remainder
of the Meijer site to meet any parking needs that cannot be m-t on the retail building site.
