Item 2: Clear Lam 1900, 1950 and 2000 Pratt Blvd.—Re-Subdivision K.Heitman, of Heitman Architects, stated that he was representing Clear Lam Packaging. It was noted that Clear Lam has been in the Village for approximately 30 years. Their current operations take place in three(3)neighboring buildings along Pratt Boulevard,encompassing over 600,000 square feet with 400 employees. The petitioner stated that the work would take place in two phases. Phase 1,which would begin in the spring of 2006 and be completed by the end of the year,consists of adding approximately 40,000 square feet of high-bay warehousing to the west end of 1950 Pratt. It would also feature a brick colonnade on the south fagade facing Pratt. Phase 2, which would begin in the following spring and take approximately a year and a half to complete, would consist of combining the buildings at 1950 and 2000 by constructing an approximate 91,000 square foot addition between the two facilities. This addition would consist of a two-story corporate office and high-bay plant addition. The consolidation would create the new corporate headquarter office facility for Clear Lam. - 1 - It was stated that the re-subdivision is needed so that Clear Lam can continue to grow and yet stay in the Elk Grove community. K. Heitman then turned the presentation over to K.Krogstad, a landscape architect for Gary R. Weber Associates. K.Krogstad noted that it is their plan to keep many of the existing trees. In addition,they would be adding more trees and plantings along Pratt Boulevard to match the work that has been done along Nicholas Boulevard. C.Kempner, an engineer for Jacob and Heffner,noted that there were three primary issues with the re-subdivision that have been resolved with the Village staff. The three issues were the geometrics of the parking lot,watemtain circulation, and storm water detention. It was noted that storm water detention would be installed in an underground concrete vault and also in a conventional detention basin along Nicholas. If approved,K. Heitman stated that they would begin construction in the Spring of 2006. Commissioner Meyers asked for more information about the storm water detention basin along Nicholas Boulevard. C. Kempner stated that it would be a dry bottom basin with grass. Commissioner Hauser asked for the timeline of the entire project. K.Heitman stated that Phase 1 would be completed by the end of 2006 and Phase 2 would be completed a year and a half after the completion of Phase 1. Commissioner Sokolowski noted that Clear Lam has indicated that they are the owner of the property,but that the petition shows Sanfilippo Holdings as the owner. J. Sanfilippo stated that Clear Lam is also one of the members of the Holding. Commissioner Paliganoff questioned the petitioner about the abandonment and/or relocation of the existing water service lines.
