SUBJECT Consideration of Petition 87- 89 Requesting R- 3 Two Family Residence District Special Use Approval for a Planned Unit Development , property located on the north side of East Chicago Street , west of North Shales Parkway, extended , by Poplar Creek Partnership , as Applicant and Owner . II . CONSIDERATIONS A petition has been filed by the Poplar Creek Partnership requesting special use approval for a planned unit development (P. U. D . ) in the R- 3 Two- family Residence District . The subject property is located north of East Chicago Street , west of North Shales Parkway extended . The petitioner is currently in the process of applying for preliminary and final plat approval for the subdivision of the subject property. The proposed subdivision would consist of 52 lots , each of which would contain at least 10 ,000 square feet of lot area . The lots are proposed to be developed with 52 duplexes , for a total of 104 units . Of these , the petitioner is proposing 40 two-bedroom units and 64 three-bedroom units. The petitioner desires the flexibility to divide a lot along the common wall between the individual duplex units in order to make each unit available for sale . This division of land would , in all cases , violate the minimum side yard requirement ; and , in some cases , violate the combined side yard , lot area , and lot width requirements . Accordingly, the petitioner is requesting special use approval for a P. U . D . to create the flexibility necessary to divide the lots . III . FINDINGS After due notice , as required by law , the Land Use Committee held a public hearing to consider the proposed special use on November 6 , 1989 . The petitioner testified at the hearing and presented documentary evidence . No objectors appeared at the hearing and no written objection has been filed . -Page 1- Exhibit A The Land Use Committee has made the following findings with respect to Petition 87- 89 : A . Site Characteristics : The subject property is an irregularly shaped parcel containing approximately 24 acres . The property is undeveloped . Poplar Creek traverses the subject property near its northerly most boundary . Several stands of mature oak trees are located on the subject property . The subject property ranges in elevation from 746 feet to 794 feet for a maximum relief of 48 feet . B . Sewer and Water : The subject property may be served by a 12 inch watermain and a 24 inch sanitary sewer , which are located on East Chicago Street . There are no capacity limitations associated with the proposed subdivision . Stormwater is proposed to be detained on site at the southwest corner of the subject property . C . Traffic and Parking : The subject property is proposed to be served by North Shales Parkway which is to be extended and improved between Summit Street and Villa Street . The North Shales Parkway extension will be located along the easterly boundary of the subject property . Shales Parkway. will become a major north- south arterial serving the eastern portion of the city. As . part of the annexation agreement for the subject property the developer has dedicated a 70 foot wide right- of-way along the easterly property line for the purpose of extending Shales Parkway. In addition , the developer is contributing $ 75 ,000 toward the improvement of Shales Parkway. If the subject property was improved with 52 duplexes ( 104 dwelling units ) approximately 1 ,040 vehicle trips ( 10 trips per dwelling unit ) per day would be generated . The off- street parking ordinance requires that a minimum of two off- street parking spaces per dwelling unit be provided . Sources : Engineering Division , City of Elgin . Design Manual , State of Illinois , 1984 Edition . Trip Generation , ITE , Third Edition . E. M . C . 19 . 44 Off-street Parking . D . Zoning History: The subject property was annexed to the city and zoned R- 2 and R-4 in 1988 . The subject property was rezoned to R- 3 in 1989 . E. Zoning Status : The subject property is of adequate size and shape to be developed in accordance with Elgin ' s zoning and subdivision regulations . -Page 2- F. Surrounding Land Use and Zoning : The area located to the north of the subject property is zoned R- 3 . The area is proposed to be developed with single family residences . •'" The area located to the east of the subject property is zoned Cook County R-4 Single Family Residence District . The area contains single family residences interspersed with undeveloped parcels . The area located to the south of the subject property is zoned B-4 . The area is proposed to be developed with commercial uses . The area located to the west of the subject property is zoned R-4 . The area is developed with townhomes . G. Trend of Development : East Chicago Street is developing in a commercial strip pattern of development . The predominant commercial uses are related to automobile sales and service . The properties located behind the commercial strip are developing with residential uses . H . Comprehensive Plan : The subject property is designated urban residential . I . Departures from the Zoning and Subdivision Regulations The proposed development includes the following departures from the standard zoning and subdivision eek requirements : 1 . The Zoning Ordinance requires that in the R- 3 district , lot area shall not be less than 5 ,000 square feet for each dwelling unit in a two-family dwelling . The petitioner is proposing a minimum 3 ,800 square feet of lot area , after division of the duplexes . 2 . The minimum permitted lot width by ordinance is 50 feet . The petitioner proposes a minimum 42 foot lot width . 3 . In the R- 3 district , two side yards are required , having a combined width of 14 feet and neither side yard less than six feet in width . The proposed division of the duplexes would reduce one side yard per dwelling unit to zero , and would therefore leave a total combined width of less than 14 feet . J . Fiscal Impact : A fiscal impact study for the proposed subdivision has not been submitted . In general , residential developments do not generate sufficient revenue to the city to cover expenditures for city -Page 3- services . However , the fiscal impact of any residential development must be viewed in terms of existing and future revenue generating land uses located within the City of Elgin and within School District U-46 . The residential , commercial and pm, industrial components of the land use system are highly interdependent from a fiscal impact point of view ( a place to live , work , shop , and recreate) . Accordingly , the fiscal impact of a residential development must be considered within the context of the entire land use system and within the context of a community. K . P. U. D . Standards : The proposed special use is in substantial conformance with the planned unit development standards . L . Conditions for Approval : The Land Use Committee is of the opinion that approval of Petition 87- 89 should be subject to the following conditions : 1 . Approval of preliminary and final plats , previously submitted , for Woodland Creek Subdivision . 2 . Revisions to the P. U. D . site plan per the Legal Department , Bureau of Inspection Services , Engineering Division and Planning Department . 3 . Substantial conformance with the revised P. U . D . site plan . 4 . Submission of items required by E.M . C . eft 18 . 16 . 030 (G) , such as landscaping plans , and a lighting plan prior to special use approval . 5 . Submission of and approval of protective covenants to control future maintenance and improvements to the duplex lots and structures prior to special use approval . 6 . Payment of a school site cash contribution in the amount of $ 10 , 730 . 16 and a park site cash contribution in the amount of $ 28 , 337 . 19 . Payments are due prior to final plat approval . 7 . Compliance with terms and conditions of an annexation agreement between the City of Elgin and the Valley Bank and Trust Company , as trustee for Trust No . 0388 , which annexed the "Glenwood/Scilabra" property. 8 .
