Commissioner Alexander had no questions.
Commissioner Trieb had no questions, but complimented the petitioners on the integration
ra
between the two schools.
Commissioner Harner had no questions.
Commissioner Henderson had no questions.
Commissioner Milford asked if what the petitioners are proposing is due to increased
D
enrollment or do they anticipate increased enrollment, or are they introducing this due to the
existing enrollment. Ms. Fair stated it is a combination of factors — this is a different school
with a different population being served, and part of it is passion for serving students with
significant challenges.
Commissioner Milford asked why the petitioners chose not to provide a playground. Ms.
Perezic stated that at this time, they will not be moving forward with a playground, but they
are looking into partnering with Advance Preschool. Mr. Anderson stated there was a play
space approved north of the detention basin on the property west of the subject location over
three years ago, which would have to be brought back to the Commission for approval if they
decide to revisit utilizing this space, but since they have a working relationship with Advance
Preschool, which occupies a large portion of the neighboring property for school uses, and
this location also being for school use, it is likely that the Commission may see the
playground space being presented again in the future.
Commissioner Milford asked about lunchroom facilities available at the school. Ms. Fair
stated the gym area would also be utilized as a cafeteria space.
Commissioner Milford asked for an example of off-site activities, as mentioned in the
Page 2
Page 3 of 59
February 18, 2026 Village of Hoffman Estates Plan Commission
presentation. Ms. Fair provided an example for students who demonstrate chronic
absenteeism or school refusal behavior. An activity might be a community-based or home
visit for face-to-face interaction with the student. Ms. Perezic added that this is part of their
programming for remote students at which time instruction and therapy can be administered
in person.
Commissioner Milford asked about security on site. Ms. Perezic stated that there is a plan
for security cameras on the exterior of the school, but not interior cameras, since they have
an adequate number of staff that they do not feel is necessary.
Vice Chairperson Bauske commended the petitioners on a thorough presentation and
community-based approach. He asked what the petitioners' timeline looks like for this
project. Ms. Fair stated they anticipate opening in August 2026 if approved to move forward.
Vice Chairperson Bauske asked the petitioners if they agreed with the conditions of approval
in the staff report. Mr. Anderson read the following conditions into the record at the request
of the petitioners; The Special Use to operate a private education facility shall be granted
solely to Natura Academy; Operations shall significantly conform to the Project Narrative and
Program Description included as part of the Petitioner's application; The Special Use shall
be established within one year from the date of granting by the Village Board or the special
use shall be revoked; No bus parking shall be permitted on site; There shall be no stopping,
ft
standing, or stacking of vehicles in the drive aisles or along the curb in the fire lanes. The
property owner and petitioner shall manage all taxi and bus operations on the site so as not
to disrupt site circulation or block parking areas. The school shall monitor and manage
where staff and visitors park to ensure that cars do not interfere with drop-off or pick-up
ra
parking. If the Village determines that there are problems, as witnessed by illegal parking or
standing on the property, the Village shall have the right to require additional signage, site
modifications, or other measures to remedy the problems. Mr. Anderson stated these are
similar conditions to which Wallace Academy was approved with. The petitioners answered
yes.
D Chairperson Chhatwani asked what measures the petitioners are taking to advertise their
services / programs. Ms. Fair stated that, following approval by the State, they send
informational packets to school districts up to an hour away so they are aware of available
programming, and they are also listed on the ISBE website as an approved program.
Chairperson Chhatwani asked about program funding. Ms. Perezic stated funding is a
combination of private funding and a loan from the SBA.
Chairperson Chhatwani asked if there were any members of the audience that wished to
comment on the request. There were no public comments.
Motion by Commissioner Harner, seconded by Commissioner Henderson, to close the
Public Hearing. Voice vote taken. Ayes - 7 | Nays - 0 | (Abstain: None). Motion Passed.

Public Hearing
Master Sign Plan Amendment for the Poplar Creek Crossing Shopping Center
located at 4585 - 4613 W. Higgins Road
REQUEST SUMMARY
Double K & A Inc. dba Rookie's Sports Bar and Grill is seeking a Master Sign Plan
Amendment to allow additional wall signs which exceed the allowances of the approved
Master Sign Plan.
Location: 4585-4613 W. Higgins Rd.
Property Owner / Applicant: LBX Poplar Creek LLC / DOUBLE K & A
INC/ROOKIES 4
Property Size: 27.7 ac.
Zoning / Land Use: CMU - Commercial Mixed Use
Adjacent Properties: North: CMU
West: B-4 Business
South: CMU
East - B-2 Business
BACKGROUND / ANALYSIS
Poplar Creek Crossing shopping center was approved in April 2005. The approval
included a Master Sign Plan (Ord. 3723-2005). Pursuant to the approved MSP Section
II.C.5, interior tenants within buildings N1 and N2 are restricted to a maximum of 2 wall
signs.
In 2025, Rookie's Sports Bar and Grill received permits and expanded into an adjacent
tenant space to provide an additional dining and party room. The expanded floor plan
provides a separate entrance for private events but is connected internally to the
existing restaurant. The expansion creates one tenant space with approximately 90
linear feet of frontage which is restricted by the current Master Sign Plan to one sign on
the south (front) facade and one sign on the north (rear) facade of the building. During
the building permit review for the expansion, Rookie's considered relocating the existing
sign to be centered over the new combined space. However, architectural elements of
the building's facade make this option unsuitable. The Petitioner is seeking an
amendment to allow a single tenant to have more than one wall sign.
Page 1 of 3
Page 6 of 59
The proposed amendment would only apply to wall sign guidelines for buildings N1 and
N2 (4585-4613 W. Higgins Rd). The remainder of the Master Sign Plan requirements
and conditions would remain in effect.
The Petitioner proposes to update the MSP language to include the following addition
to Section II.C.5:
"Each tenant shall install a maximum of (i) 1 Tenant Wall Sign on the front facade of the
portion of the building leased by the tenant (the "Leased Space"); (ii) 1 Tenant Wall
Sign on the rear facade of the Leased Space; provided, however, that a tenant of a
building on the Retail Site identified as "Building I" may, but shall not be obligated to
install a Tenant Wall Sign on the rear facade of its Leased Space. In addition, each
tenant shall be allowed to install 1 Tenant Wall Sign on each side facade of the Leased
Space, but only if the side facade is an exterior wall; and (iii) A tenant of a building
on Retail Site “N”, which contains a leased space of 70 linear feet of frontage or
greater, shall be permitted to have 1 additional wall sign on the front facade and 1
additional wall sign on the rear facade of the Leased Space.”
The Petitioner has submitted plans for the two additional wall signs that would be
permitted by the proposed change to the Master Sign Plan. Each sign would be
approximately 50 square feet and would meet all other MSP requirements. This request
will result in fewer total signs on the building since the applicant occupies more than
two tenant spaces.
Public Notice
Public notice was posted in the Daily Herald and mailings were sent to all properties
within 300'. No objections have been received.
