Docket 80-6: K1ehm Petition for Text Amendment,
preannexation rezoning of 116.4 acres,
and rezoning of 8 acres
Donald Schaumberger, developer (Bennett and Kahnweiler Associates) ,
and Benjamin Randle, attorney (Marks, Katz, et a1) , were present to
represent the petitioners. The petitioners were requesting that the
Village take the following action:
(1) Adopt a Text Amendment to the Elk Grove Village Zoning
Ordinance establishing an Office Park Special Use District;
(2) Rezone approximately 7.23 acres of property currently within
the corporate limits of the Village from Light Industrial to
Office Park Special Use District;
(3) Approve the preannexation rezoning of approximately 117 acres
of property for an Office Park Special Use District use.
The property is located east of Arlington Heights Road and south of the
Illinois Toll Road.
Randle began by presenting a revised Text Amendment which was
changed to incorporate suggestions from the Plan Commission and staff.
Paliganoff asked if the petitioner intended to have a provision
in the lease with office park tenants to regulate the use of compact
car stalls. Randle replied that the petitioner had not yet considered
the exact provisions that would be included in the lease arrangements.
Stangeland inquired about the square footage that would be permitted
on identification signs in the proposed Office Park Conditional Use
District. Randle responded that the Text Amendment would permit not
more than three identification signs on a building with each sign not
to exceed 45 square feet in area.

Stangeland stated that the section of the Text Amendment which
requires "a means of safe and reasonable pedestrian movement between
buildings" is too general. Stangeland suggested that the provision
would permit the developer to install an unacceptable material as a
walkway surface. Geinosky, Paliganoff, Mullen, and Kenna all expressed
the opinion that the language proposed by the petitioner was acceptable.
Knickerbocker explained that the Text Amendment would permit the
petitioner to provide a 60 foot right-of-way (including medians and
turn lanes) on main streets and a 40 foot right-of-way on all other
streets. The utilities would be located in easements on each side
of the right-of-way. Knickerbocker added that the easement provisions
would be carefully drafted to permit the Village and utility companies
unrestricted access.
Stangeland asked if the petitioner had prepared a tax impact
study of the development. Randle commented that a tax impact study
had been completed and would be presented to the President and Board
of Trustees. Randle also agreed to provide a copy of the study for
use by the Plan Commission.
Geinosky expressed disappointment that the petitioner had not
presented more traffic impact information.
Stangeland declared that he agreed with all of the provisions
in the proposed Text Amendment with the exception of the language
regarding sidewalks and walkways.
Mullen moved to recommend that the President and Board of Trustees
adopt a Text Amendment to the Zoning Ordinance establishing an Office
Park Conditional Use District (a copy of the Text Amendment is attached) .
Glass seconded the motion. A roll call was taken and Geinosky, Glass,
Mullen, Paliganoff and Kenna responded 'AYE'; Stangeland responded 'NAY' ;
and Cummins was absent.
Geinosky moved to recommend that the President and Board of Trustees
approve the preannexation rezoning of approximately 117 acres (K1ehm
property) for an Office Park Conditional Use District. Paliganoff
seconded the motion and all present voted 'AYE' .
Glass moved to recommend that the President and Board of Trustees
approve the rezoning of approximately 7 acres (Rosen property) to an
Office Park Conditional Use District. Mullen seconded the motion and
all present voted 'AYE' .
