A Public hearing on this matter was held March 16, 1983. Questions and comments from Commission members were solicited by Chairman Glass. Mullen observed that the ordinance requirement for stacking spaces could be related to either square feet of building area or enrollment. Byrum, Attorney for Woodson Development, noted that the square foot requirement set by the State of Illinois for day care centers is established on a usable space basis. For instance, kitchen areas do not count as usable space for students. Glass pointed out that a requirement based on enrollment could present an enforcement problem. Rettenbacher indicated that enforcement would be feasible if the requirement was related to maximum licensed capacity. Cummins observed that a change in stacking space requirements may impact the need for parking spaces and dictate a revision of parking requirements as well. Byrum suggested that perhaps a combination of parking and/or stacking spaces be included. Stangeland commented that there appears to be roughly a ten to one relationship between school enrollment and the sum of the maximum Plan Commission Minutes - 2 - May 4, 1983 Docket 83-3 (continued) number of automobiles using stacking and parking spaces at any one time (based or. Staff surveys) . It was the concensus of the Plan Commission that the current stacking space standard is too rigid. Fulton stated that the Commission could consider a requirement combining parking and stacking spaces based on the ten to one ratio cited by Stangeland. Mullen proposed the following Text Amendment for parking and stacking space requirements at nursery schools: Nursery School. Five (5) parking spaces shall be provided, plus one (1) parking space for each employee on duty at any one time, plus one (1) stacking or parking space for each ten children based on maximum licensed capacity; however, a minimum of six (6) stacking spaces shall be provided. Stangeland's motion to recommend the Text Amendment as outlined by Mullen was seconded by Paliganoff; whereupon the Plan Commission voted as follows: AYE: Mullen, Glass, Geinosky, Paliganoff, Stangeland, Fulton, Cummins. MAY: None. Glass directed that a recommendation to the Village Board be drafted. Landscape Plan: Southwest corner of Biesterfield and Beisner Roads (Semar Property) . The above referenced landscape plan was reviewed by the Plan Commission. Pursuant to the developer's annexation agreement, a landscape plan must be reviewed and approved by the Plan Commission prior to the issuance of any building permits. Mr. Greg Oltman of Northern Illinois Landscape Company presented aspects of the plan to the Commission. Glass indicated a note should be made on the plan stating that the species may be substituted in the parkway to promote variety if required by the Village Engineer and/or Foreman of Land and Forestry. Cummins' motion to approve the plan conditioned upon inclusion of the additional note and approval by the Village Engineer was seconded by Fulton. The motion was approved by unanimous voice vote of members present.
