PETITIONS
Petition 18-05 Keith and Kathleen Warpinski – Map Amendment Rezoning the Subject Property from A-1 to R-1; Property is Located on the North Side of Walker Road Approximately 0.31 Miles East of Route 47 (PIN: 05-21-400- 011) in Kendall Township
Attorney Dan Kramer summarized the request. The property is slightly over six (6) acres. There are approximately six (6) homes around the property. All of the adjoining properties are zoned A-1. Mr. Kramer noted that his client was open to an A-1 Conditional Use Permit for a house, but chose the map amendment route because of the stricter publication requirements. Mr. Kramer noted that property owner was open to dedicating land for a trail on both the north and south sides of the property. Mr. Kramer also noted that the property was subject to a special use request in 2017 for a landscaping business; this proposal was withdrawn. The property does not have prospective buyer at this time. Mr. Kramer reported that the Kendall Township Planning Commission and Kendall Township Board issued negative recommendations.
Mr. Klaas requested that page 5 of the report be corrected to show Walker Road as a township road.
Mr. Klaas asked about the pipeline easement. Mr. Kramer responded that the pipeline easement remains active.
Mr. Rybski noted that an alternative sewer system may be required at the time of development because of soil issues.
Mr. Klaas asked, if the proposal is approved, could a landscape business go on the site. The answer to this question was no.
Mr. Rybski made a motion, seconded by Mr. Klaas, to recommend approval of the proposal.
Ayes (6): Klaas, Eberhardt, Rybski, Clayton, Herber, and Asselmeier
Nays (0): None
Absent: (4) Guritz, Andrews, Davidson, and Chismark
The motion passed unanimously. This matter will go before the Kendall County Regional Planning Commission on March 28th.
Petition 18-07 Kendall County Planning, Building and Zoning Committee – Text Amendment to Section 13.08 Adding Sub-Section R Pertaining to Renewal of Special Use Permits
Mr. Asselmeier provided a summary of this proposed text amendment. The proposal clarifies the procedure for renewing a special use permit. If a special use permit holder does not violate the terms of their special use permit, the special use permit shall be automatically renewed. If a special use permit holder is found guilty of violating the terms of their special use permit, the holder would have to go through the special use permitting process in full in order to renew the special use permit. The County Board could request changes to the special use permit, but the County would have to pay for all applicable notification requirements. Twenty-seven (27) special use permits exist that require some form of review. The proposal contains a provision allowing those special use permit holders to forfeit grandfathering.
Mr. Rybski asked if the special use permits would be actively renewed. Mr. Asselmeier noted that the existing special uses are exempt the proposal. Also, if an existing special use permit holder wants an amendment to their special use, the County could require that they follow this new regulation.
Mr. Rybski made a motion, seconded by Mr. Clayton, to recommend approval of the proposal.
Ayes (6): Klaas, Eberhardt, Rybski, Clayton, Herber, and Asselmeier
Nays (0): None
Absent: (4) Guritz, Andrews, Davidson, and Chismark
The motion passed unanimously. This matter will go before the Kendall County Regional Planning Commission on March 28th.
