Mayor Johnson addressed the Commission regarding the need to expand the limits of
the study area as a result of the semi-final road alignments presented.by the Illinois
Department of Transportation. Given (DOT's recommendation for a West Bypass
Expressway on O'Hare property and limited access highway along the Elgin-O'Hare
alignment, further detailed land use and transportation studies are recommended to
avoid adverse impacts and identify potential future land uses.
Representatives from LandVision made a presentation to the ICRC Commission
covering preliminary visions of potential development and discussing the need for more
indepth analysis of areas surrounding the roadway alignments. Land use and
transportation were the major emphasis of the presentation
The Commissioners expressed concerns with the Master Plan focusing on a period of
time beyond ten years and the redevelopment of private property. They preferred to
focus the Plan on what will happen over the next ten years. Staff assured the
Commission that tonight's preliminary land use presentation was only one part of the
report and that the final Plan will include short, medium and long range improvements
covering transportation, utility infrastructure (water, storm, sanitary),
aesthetics/landscape design, and land use.

A motion was made to recommend to the Village Board an increase to the LandVision
contract in the amount of $191,952 for a total of S750,873.50. Discussion followed
with staff providing the following details: The two additional areas to be studied (Devon
Avenue Corridor and Elmhurst Road Corridor) encompass approximately 880 acres and
5 additional sub-areas. The original scope of the Master Plan identified a total of
approximately 651 acres and 11 sub-areas. The addition of the Devon and Elmhurst
corridors result in a 135% increase in study area and a 34% increase in total project
cost (S 191,952).

increase to the LandVision contract in the amount of$191,952.
