Public Hearings Page 1 November 20, 2024 Village of Hoffman Estates Planning & Zoning Commission 1. Site Plan Amendment and a Special Use to Clearbrook for a social service agency at 1260 W. Higgins Road Motion by Commissioner Harner, seconded by Commissioner Trieb, to Open Public Hearing. Voice vote taken. Ayes - 8, Nays - 0, (Abstain: None). Motion Passed. Chairperson Combs swore in the petitioners. Hollis Gerrie (2414 E Kensington Road, Arlington Heights) Don Frick (334 S Jefferson, Woodstock) Ms. Gerrie and Mr. Frick presented an overview of the project. Kevin Anderson presented an overview of the staff report. Commissioner Lee asked staff if there would be any additional fencing for security and/or safety in addition to the landscaped buffer/border. Mr. Anderson responded that from Village code perspective, the solid board on board fence that is there currently suffices. Landscape plan shows three additional trees on the north lot line to provide adequate screening. Mr. Frick commented about fencing concerns with regard to security purposes that the individuals being served at this facility are highly functioning individuals who live in and actively participate in their communities. This location is not one where individuals with behavioral concerns would be participating, therefore it is not planned to add additional fencing at this time. Commissioner Lee clarified that he was referring to safety of their clients and did not want to infer that he was asking about keeping people in. Commissioner Wise asked the petitioners about the area they cover and how they are funded. Mr. Frick stated all services are provided within Illinois, predominantly the northern region, and Ms. Gerrie stated that 83% is funded through Federal and State dollars. Commissioner Milford asked whether there would be adequate lighting around the site for evening events. Mr. Frick stated that evening events are smaller. However, they are proposing substantial upgrades to the lighting of the facility, including the parking lot and security lighting. Commissioner Harner voiced concern about high school kids hiding around the property. Mr. Frick stated that lighting is adequate and security cameras are installed inside and outside the facility. Commissioner Harner praised the program in general. Ms. Gerrie expanded on the programs' relationship with Hoffman Estates High School and are looking to partner with them on their transition program and, therefore, proximity to the high school is an added bonus. Commissioner Trieb asked for clarification about the new patio area and how it was listed as being planned to be used for "passive outdoor use"; would it be mainly for afternoon events, such as cookouts, or other events that could produce alot of noise in the evening? Ms. Gerrie stated most evening events would be held indoors, and she did not foresee it being a loud music or party area. She stated the use might be more likely as an area to gather prior to going out into/coming back from activities the community. Page2 November 20, 2024 Village of Hoffman Estates Planning & Zoning Commission Commissioner Chhatwani first expressed gratitude to Clearbrook for hosting 30 full-time staff members and offering the opportunity for volunteerism in the community, especially to high school students. She then expressed concerns about available parking on site, stating there are currently 72 parking spaces, with several spots planned to be converted into accessible parking spaces, and 30 spots needed for staff, thus leaving only 26 spots for the residents/volunteers stopping by the facility, and no local on-street parking available in the area. She asked whether there is any plan to expand parking for operations or did they feel this was sufficient for the program? Mr. Frick responded stating this location is ideal for their program with regard to the number of parking spaces. Many of the program attendees will be dropped off at the site by Clearbrook vans from the residential group home. None of the individual program attendees will be driving themselves to the site and there are some OT, PT and volunteer staff calculated within the 30 staff spaces. Vice Chairperson Bauske asked the petitioner if they agreed with the conditions of approval in the staff report. Mr. Frick stated yes. Chairperson Combs asked staff about Finding #4, stating the answer doesn't refer to anything regarding the access roads; should we include something to respond to this? Mr. Anderson responded that he is happy to amend anything the Commission would like, but that item #5 states that Higgins Road is the primary point of access and that there are two existing curb cuts that will continue to be utilized. Mr. Anderson also stated there is a cross access easement available between all the properties allowing travel from the property east of this site all the way over to Glen Lake Road. Chairperson Combs asked if the easement is recorded and follows the property. Mr. Anderson stated the easement is recorded against this property, the property to the east, the property to the west, the dental office and Abby Automotive. Chairperson Combs asked staff about off-property overnight parking. Mr. Anderson clarified that parking of approximately 4 to 8 Clearbrook vehicles will be on-site in the southeastern rear lot parking spaces overnight. Mr. Frick stated they prefer to keep the buses as close to the building as they are able from a security camera standpoint. Chairperson Combs asked if there were any members of the audience that would like to comment on the request. There were no public comments. Motion by Commissioner Harner, seconded by Commissioner Trieb, to Close Public Hearing. Voice vote taken. Ayes - 8, Nays - 0, (Abstain: None). Motion Passed.

Higgins Road REQUEST SUMMARY Clearbrook, a social service agency for developmentally disabled adults, has the property located at 1260 W. Higgins under contract. They are seeking approval to upgrade the site and operate a social service agency out of the remodeled existing building. The facility would provide vocational training, therapy, recreational activities, and social support, and also include administrative offices, spaces for staff training, and meeting rooms for community partnerships and outreach. Site upgrades proposed include parking lot geometric modifications, new parking lot lighting and landscaping, and improved sidewalk access. Location: 1260 W. Higgins Road Property Owner / Applicant: MAPT Properties LLC / Clearbrook Property Size: 0.93 acres Zoning / Land Use: B-2 Community Business / unoccupied office building Adjacent Properties: N - Single Family Residential E - Medical Offices W - Vacant/parking lot S - Single Family Residential BACKGROUND / ANALYSIS The subject property is zoned B-2 Community Business and is improved with a one- story, 5,100 square foot unoccupied office building. There are two parking areas on the north and south sides of the building. The applicant is proposing to remodel the interior of the building to suit their use as a social service agency for adults with developmental disabilities and upgrade the property to address several code deficiencies. Operations Clearbrook is an established social service agency with 60 years experience providing services to people in the Chicago region, including Hoffman Estates. They currently operate in over 160 communities in northern Illinois. At this facility, Clearbrook will provide life skills for up to 50 adults with disabilities. Their service area for this facility generally includes the Village of Hoffman Estates and surrounding communities. Clearbrook currently operates 5 community residences within the Village with 29 total residents. The facility would provide day services only and there would be no residents living in the building. The facility would operate from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. daily and clients would be brought to the facility by drop off or by passenger vans operated by Clearbrook. The Page 1 of 3 Page 6 of 37 renovated facility will serve as a multipurpose center offering vocational training, therapy, recreational activities, and social support. It would also include administrative offices, spaces for staff training, and meeting rooms for community partnerships and outreach. Clearbrook operates two passenger vans, one transit van and one shuttle bus for client pick-up and drop-off. These are standard sized vehicles that would be parked overnight in the northern parking lot. Site Plan Modifications The front parking area, which is currently paved to the Higgins Road sidewalk, would be modified to create a 10' landscaped buffer between the parking and the public sidewalk, allowing for the removal of the non-compliant parking blocks. The new two-way drive aisle width would meet the Village's requirements of 24' and new landscape islands would be installed at the end of each row of parking. The handicap parking stalls on the east side of the building would be removed and replaced to meet the current code. The rear parking area is being modified to improve circulation and make the current parking more functional. A landscape island is being installed at the end of the current center row of parking and non-usable spaces at the northwest and northeast corners of the parking lot would be striped out. The existing dumpster on the west side of the building is in need of repair and a condition of approval has been added requiring the enclosure to be reconstructed as part of the site improvements. Parking lot lighting would be upgraded to provide new fixture heads in compliance with the Code. Two new light poles would also be added to improve light levels throughout the parking areas. The upgraded lighting will bring the lighting levels on the site up to code. Sidewalks abutting the parking areas adjacent to the building would be widened to 7' to comply with code and a new pedestrian connection is being installed from Higgins Road into the site. Existing cross access easements which benefit the properties to the east and west as well as the subject property would remain in place and would remain unencumbered by the improvements. Parking Currently, there are 72 parking spaces on the site, although some of these are not functional due to the existing geometric layout. After the proposed improvements to bring the site more closely up to code, there would be a total of 56 parking spaces, including 3 accessible stalls. The Petitioner has identified that a maximum of 30 employees would be on site at any one time. Including Clearbrook's van parking, the total parking demand at the site should not exceed 34 spaces. The petitioner noted that clients do not drive themselves. Landscaping The site has existing landscaping mainly along the east side. The landscape plan identifies additional landscaping being provided throughout the site via a mix of trees, shrubs and perennials to bring the site into compliance with code. The Village's planter box detail used as part of the handicap stall design requires landscaping to be included, and the landscape plan does not note any plantings. A condition of approval has been added requiring landscaping to be added as per code. Page 2 of 3 Page 7 of 37 Utilities & Stormwater Management The building is already connected to Village sewer and water services and upgrades to those services are not required with this proposal. The building currently has fire suppression sprinklers installed. Surface storage of stormwater is provided within the rear parking lot and, per MWRD, no further improvements are necessary. Building Facade & Patio The applicant is not proposing exterior changes to the building facades. The existing rooftop HVAC units are not screened as per current code requirements and the petitioner has requested to defer the screening of the rooftop units until those units are replaced. Clearbrook expects to replace the units within two years of occupying the building. A condition of approval has been added that screening of the HVAC units be provided within 2 years of Village Board approval. A new patio area is proposed along the north side of the building for passive outdoor use. A retaining wall and decorative fence would be installed to create and define the patio area. MOTIONS The Planning & Zoning Commission shall make the following motions (a total of 2 motions are required): 1. Adopt the Findings of Fact for Site Plan Amendment and Special Use as outlined in the Findings and Recommendations Summary. 2. Recommend to the Village Board approval of Site Plan Amendment and a Special Use to Clearbrook for a social service agency at 1260 W. Higgins Road, subject to the following conditions: a. A building permit shall be obtained within six (6) months of the date of approval. b. The Special Use is granted solely to Clearbrook and may not be transferred or assigned. c. Landscaping shall be installed within the accessible stall planter boxes. d. The garbage enclosure shall be reconstructed as part of the site improvements. Plans shall be submitted as part of the building/site development permit. e. Screening of all rooftop units shall be provided within 2 years of the date of Village Board approval. ATTACHMENTS 1.

Supporting Documents - PLN24-0043 - 1260 W HIGGINS RD - Clearbrook letter Page 3 of 3 Page 8 of 37 Exhibit B PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION FINDINGS & RECOMMENDATION SUMMARY Meeting Date: 11/20/2024 Prepared By: Kevin Anderson, Associate Planner PLN24-0043 Site Plan Amendment and a Special Use to Clearbrook for a social service agency at 1260 W. Higgins Road Draft Findings of Fact – Special Use (as drafted by staff and may be modified by the Commission) Sec. 9-1-18-I: Standards. No special use shall be recommended by the Planning and Zoning Commission unless said Planning and Zoning Commission shall find: 1. That the establishment, maintenance, or operation of the special use will not be detrimental to or endanger the public health, safety, morals, comfort, or general welfare. FINDING: The Petition is for a social service agency which actively promotes public health, safety, and welfare. 2. That the special use will not be injurious to the use and enjoyment of other property in the immediate vicinity for the purposes already permitted, nor substantially diminish and impair property values within the neighborhood. FINDING: The proposal would repurpose an unoccupied commercially zoned property. The proposed use would not be as intense as a commercial use of the same property could be. The Petitioner would comply with the performance standards of the Zoning Code. Landscaping and lighting associated with this project are designed to minimize any impacts on adjoining residential properties. 3. That the establishment of the special use will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of surrounding property for uses permitted in the district. FINDING: The proposed improvements would only impact the subject property. The Petitioner is aware of and would maintain the existing cross access easement which benefits the neighboring properties. The proposal would not impede any redevelopment or reuse of adjoining properties. 4. That adequate utilities, access roads, drainage, and/or necessary facilities have been or are being provided. FINDING: All utilities would be provided by existing services. Storm water would be managed on site and the Petitioner has already received approval from the MWRD for the storm sewer design. 5. That adequate measures have been or will be taken to provide ingress or egress so designed as to minimize traffic congestion in public streets. FINDING: Higgins Road is an IDOT right-of-way and curb cuts are restricted by them. This proposal would continue to use two existing shared curb cuts adjacent to the front parking area. The traffic generated by the proposal would be less intense than a commercial use of the Page 9 of 37 property could potentially allow. A cross-access easement also provides direct access from the subject property to Glen Lake Road. 6. That the special use shall in all other respects conform to the applicable regulations of the district in which it is located, except in each instance as such regulations may be modified by the Village Board pursuant to the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission. FINDING: The updated site plan is generally compliant with the Code. The proposed operations would comply with the Village’s performance standards. 7. That the special use shall support the economic development goals of the Village as conveyed through the Village's Comprehensive Plan, or other relevant adopted sub-area or strategic plans. FINDING: The proposed facility would provide needed social services to the community. Draft Findings of Fact – Site Plan (as drafted by staff and may be modified by the Commission) Sec. 10-2-2-H: Planning and Zoning Commission Review and Recommendation 1. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommends approval for the stated reasons. FINDING: The proposed site plan modifications address several code deficiencies and will improve site circulation, safety and aesthetics. Draft Recommendations The Planning & Zoning Commission shall make the following motions (a total of 2 motions are required): 1. Adopt the Findings of Fact for Site Plan and Special Use, as noted in the Findings & Recommendations Summary. Motion by_________, seconded by __________, to adopt the findings.

Project Overview This project involves the renovation of a 5,100-square-foot building to create a welcoming, accessible, and supportive environment for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). The goal is to provide an inclusive space that fosters personal growth, independence, and community engagement. The renovated facility will serve as a multipurpose center offering vocational training, therapy, recreational activities, and social support for individuals with IDD. It will also include administrative offices, spaces for staff training, and meeting rooms for community partnerships and outreach. Below are a few details: Hours of Operation: 08:00AM – 05:00PM Number of Employees: 30- at any given time Number of employee vehicles during work hours: 20 Number of Clients: 50- at any given time Number of Clearbrook Vehicles parking on site: 10 Transporting clients to and from CDS: Shuttling Deliveries: No Outdoor activities: No Special events: No Background and Need Individuals with IDD face significant challenges in accessing services that meet their specific needs. Many existing facilities are outdated or not adequately designed to support the full inclusion of these individuals in society. This project addresses the critical need for a dedicated, modern space that prioritizes accessibility, safety, and comfort. By creating an inclusive environment, this renovation will contribute to improved quality of life and greater opportunities for individuals with IDD to lead fulfilling and independent lives. Page 19 of 37 Design Philosophy The renovation will focus on creating a barrier-free environment tailored to the needs of persons with IDD. The design will incorporate universal design principles to ensure accessibility for individuals with varying levels of mobility and cognitive ability. Key design elements include: Sensory-Friendly Spaces: Design features such as soundproofing, soft lighting, and soothing colors will be integrated to reduce sensory overload and create calm environments. Accessible Layouts: The building will have wide corridors, and ramps to ensure ease of movement for individuals with mobility challenges. Bathrooms, kitchens, and common areas will be designed for full accessibility, including wheelchair access. Safety Features: Specialized safety measures such as non-slip flooring, clear signage with visual aids, and emergency communication systems will be installed to ensure the safety of residents and visitors. Flexible Spaces: Multi-functional rooms will be created for group activities, therapy sessions, and vocational training, allowing for adaptability to various programs and services. Key Components of the Renovation: Therapy and Treatment Rooms: Dedicated spaces for physical therapy, occupational therapy, and behavioral support will be included. These spaces will provide individualized treatment and care in a setting designed for ease of access and privacy. Vocational Training Center: To promote employment and life skills, the facility will include a vocational training center where individuals with IDD can learn skills such as woodworking, culinary arts, gardening, and office tasks. Recreation and Socialization Areas: A large common area will be created to host recreational activities, social events, and community gatherings. Outdoor spaces, such as sensory gardens and a playground, will be designed to encourage physical activity and relaxation in a safe, accessible environment. Staff Offices and Training Areas: The renovation will also include modernized administrative offices and spaces for staff training. These areas will support the delivery of high-quality services by ensuring that staff have the necessary resources and professional development opportunities. Sustainability and Energy Efficiency: The renovation will incorporate green building practices to promote energy efficiency and reduce environmental impact. Energy-efficient lighting, heating, and cooling systems will be installed, and sustainable building materials will be used where possible. Community Impact: This project is expected to have a lasting positive impact on the community. It will provide individuals with IDD the opportunity to participate in activities that enhance their skills, foster friendships, and encourage independence. The facility will also serve as a community hub, offering resources and support for families, caregivers, and professionals working in the field of intellectual and developmental disabilities. By creating a state-of-the-art facility that addresses the unique needs of individuals with IDD, this project will help break down barriers and ensure that every person has the opportunity to thrive in an inclusive environment.
