Eisenhower Lane North The petitioner requests that the Village grant approval of a conditional use, pursuant to Section 155.420(C)(40) of the Village of Lombard Village Code, to allow for an animal rescue organization at the subject property located within the I Limited Industrial District. (DISTRICT #3) Sworn in to present the petition were: Anna Papke, Senior Planner; and Sue Lee, Tammy McAuley, Catherine Tojaga and Michelle Kinney, representing the petitioner. Vice-Chair Flint read the Plan Commission procedures and asked if anyone other than the petitioner intended to cross examine and, hearing none, he proceeded with the petition. Sue Lee presented on behalf of the petitioner. She provided background information on the Feral Fixers organization. Feral Fixers’ Village of Lombard Page 1 Plan Commission Minutes February 3, 2020 activities involve a trap, neuter and release (TNR) program for feral cats in DuPage County. The organization also offers some cats for adoption. Ms. Lee said that the organization’s efforts have reduced the number of stray cats euthanized in DuPage County over the last decade. She explained the organization is seeking a conditional use permit to operate an animal rescue at the subject property in the I District. She noted that the organization will take a phased approach to occupancy of the building. Initially the building will be used for storage, volunteer activities and adoption events. At a later phase there will be adoptable cats residing in the building, and eventually the TNR program will be run from the building. There will be no vet care on site, and cats will be appropriately contained at all times. Ms. Lee said the site has adequate parking and a fire alarm system that meets code requirements for buildings where animals are kept. Vice-Chair Flint asked if any person would like to speak in favor or against this petition, or for public comment. Ken Gallt, owner of 324 Eisenhower Lane North, addressed the Plan Commission. He said he the Feral Fixers organization is a valuable part of the community, and he expects conditions on the subject property will be improved once Feral Fixers moves in. He supported the petition. Vice-Chair Flint asked if any person would like to speak in favor or against this petition, or for public comment. Hearing none, he asked for the staff report. Ms. Papke presented the staff report, which was submitted to the public record in its entirety. The petitioner proposes to operate Feral Fixers, an animal rescue organization, at the subject property in the Eisenhower Lane industrial park. The Zoning Ordinance does not list animal rescue organizations as a use, but staff considers the use to be similar in nature to animal day care facilities, hospital and kennels, all of which are conditional uses in the I District. The Zoning Ordinance states that uses similar in nature to other conditional uses in the I District can locate in the I District with the appropriate conditional use approval. Feral Fixers’ activities include humanely trapping feral cats to provide vet care. The organization also adopts out cats that are suitable to live in homes. The subject property will serve as an office for the organization as well as a place to house cats prior to and after transport Village of Lombard Page 2 Plan Commission Minutes February 3, 2020 to veterinary offices for care. No veterinary services will be provided at the subject property. Staff has reviewed the petition and finds the intended use of the property would be compatible with other uses in the immediate neighborhood. Staff finds the petition meets the standards for conditional uses and recommends approval of the request. Vice-Chair Flint asked for public comment, and, hearing none, opened the meeting for comments among the Commissioners. Commissioner Flint asked if there would be overnight staff at the building. Ms. Lee said there would be no overnight shifts. Commissioner Johnston asked about the number of cats that would occupy the building. Ms. Lee and Ms. McAuley said it would depend on the age of the cats and their personalities, but they expect no more than 50 adoptable cats at one time. Additional cats would potentially move through the site as part of the TNR program. Commissioner Johnston asked if people who adopt cats from Feral Fixers can return them to the organization if the adoption does not work out. Ms. Lee said the organization does accept cats back if the adoption is not working, but they have very few cats returned to them. On a motion by Commissioner Burke, and a second by Commissioner Johnston, the Plan Commission voted 4-0 to recommend that the Village Board approve the petition associated with PC 20-07, subject to the following four (4) conditions: 1. That the petitioner shall develop the site in accordance with plans submitted as part of this request; 2. That the petitioner shall satisfactorily address all comments noted within the Inter-Departmental Review Committee Report; 3. This relief shall be valid for a period of one year from the date of approval of the ordinance. If the animal rescues organization’s operations at the subject property are not established by said date, this relief shall be deemed null and void; and 4. All cats shall be kept securely inside the building. The motion carried by the following vote: Aye: 4- Martin Burke, John Mrofcza, Stephen Flint, and Bill Johnston Absent: 2- Ruth Sweetser, and Leigh Giuliano Village of Lombard Page 3 Plan Commission Minutes February 3, 2020 200036 PC 20-06: Expansion of a Conditional Use (Soaring Eagle Academy), 800 S. Parkview Boulevard The petitioner requests that the Village grant approval of an amendment to an existing conditional use per the conditions of approval of Ordinance 7103, pursuant to Section 155.412(C)(19) of the Lombard Village Code, for a school, private, fulltime: elementary, middle and high, within the OPD Office District Planned Development. (DISTRICT #2) Sworn in to present the petition were: Anna Papke, Senior Planner; and Deanna Tyrpak, Mark Montana, Joe Macchione and Meghan Michel, representing the petitioner. Vice-Chair Flint read the Plan Commission procedures and asked if anyone other than the petitioner intended to cross examine and, hearing none, he proceeded with the petition. Ms. Tyrpak presented the petition. She provided background on Soaring Eagle Academy, including a profile of the student body and staffing requirements. She said that due to an increase in the number of staff members, Soaring Eagle requires additional parking, and requests an amendment to the conditional use granted to the school in 2015 in order to expand the parking lot on the subject property. She noted that staff members had been parking on lots elsewhere in the Woodlake office park, but this is no longer an option as the other sites are fully leased. She reviewed the standards for conditional uses. Vice-Chair Flint asked if any person would like to speak in favor or against this petition, or for public comment. Hearing none, he asked for the staff report. Ms. Papke presented the staff report, which was submitted to the public record in its entirety. The petitioner currently operates Soaring Eagle Academy on the subject property in the Woodlake Corporate Park, which is zoned Office Planned Development District. Schools are a conditional use in the Office District. The Village approved the conditional use for Soaring Eagle in 2015 when the petitioner initially began operations on the subject property. The petitioner proposes to expand the parking lot on the property to accommodate a growing student and staff population. The parking lot expansions is considered an expansion of the conditional use, which requires approval through the Plan Commission/Village Board public hearing process. The petitioner’s plans have been reviewed by the Village’s IDRC committee. All comments from that review have been forwarded to the Village of Lombard Page 4 Plan Commission Minutes February 3, 2020 petitioner and will be addressed during permitting. Planning staff reviewed the petition and find that the proposed parking lot improvements will not impact surrounding properties or traffic circulation within the office park. Staff finds the petition meets the standards for conditional uses and recommends approval of the request. Vice-Chair Flint asked for public comment, and, hearing none, opened the meeting for comments among the Commissioners. Commissioner Burke noted that the staff report included comments on engineering issues related to the proposed parking lot. Ms. Papke said those comments would be addressed during permitting On a motion by Commissioner Burke, and a second by Commissioner Mrofcza, the Plan Commission voted 4-0 to recommend that the Village Board approve the petition associated with PC 20-06, subject to the following four (4) conditions: 1. The conditional use permit is exclusively for the tenant space at 800 Parkview Boulevard. Any expansion of the establishment within the existing building or site beyond the plans submitted as part of PC 15-11 and PC 20-06 shall require an amendment to the conditional use; 2. That the petitioner shall develop the site in accordance with plans submitted as part of this request; 3. That the petitioner shall satisfactorily address all comments noted within the Inter-Departmental Review Committee Report; and 4. This relief shall be valid for a period of one year from the date of approval of the ordinance. If the parking lot is not established by said date, this relief shall be deemed null and void. The motion carried the following vote: 200025 PC 20-02: Text Amendment to the Zoning Ordinance, Storage Centers The petitioner is requesting a zoning text amendment to Section 155.417 (G)(2)(b), the B4A Roosevelt Road Corridor District, of the Lombard Village Code to allow for “Storage centers, provided that the use fronts along an arterial roadway” to be listed as a conditional use. (DISTRICT ALL) Sworn in to present the petition were petitioner Kate Jahnke Dale and Jennifer Ganser, Assistant Director. Ms. Dale said she is the attorney for the petitioner. She said they Village of Lombard Page 5 Plan Commission Minutes February 3, 2020 submitted a response to standards for the text amendment. She said storage centers are a low intensity use and would be limited as a conditional use. She said storage centers would be complementary to the other uses in the zoning district. The use has evolved over time and users want a center near their home and work. Vice Chairperson Flint asked for public comment. Ms. Stephanie Ostrowski said she is a 50-year resident and lives on Ahrens. She said Lombard has 7 storage centers and 293 in a 15 miles radius. She said we don’t need another. She said her neighborhood backs up to the area. She is concerned about water and mosquitoes. Ms. Valerie Ewoldt said she lives on Morris and that this is an important decision. She said the petitioner glossed over items. Ms. Dale said drainage will be addressed in PC 20-03. Vice Chairperson Flint asked for the staff report. Ms. Ganser presented the staff report, which was submitted to the public record in its entirety. The petitioner requests that storage centers be allowed as a conditional use in the B4A zoning district. This request will be followed by a companion case for a storage center at 850 E. Roosevelt Road (PC 20-03). Storage Centers are currently allowed as a conditional use in the B4 District and a permitted use in the Industrial District. Storage Centers were added to the Zoning Ordinance in PC 00-49 as a new land use category to distinguish from mini-warehouses. Staff noted there are usually ancillary retail sales of boxes and packing materials and therefore found the use compatible with the B4 District thru a conditional use permit process. Staff notes that storage centers are generally quiet uses that generate less traffic than the retail and restaurant uses along Roosevelt Road. Staff believes a storage center business is compatible with the existing permitted and conditional uses in the Roosevelt Road Corridor. The Comprehensive Plan classifies the Roosevelt Road corridor as Community Commercial. Vice Chairperson Flint opened the meeting for comments among the Commissioners. On a motion by Commissioner Mrofcza, and a second by Commissioner Burke, the Plan Commission voted 4-0 to recommend that the Village Board approve the petition associated with PC 20-02. Village of Lombard Page 6 Plan Commission Minutes February 3, 2020 The motion carried by the following vote: Aye: 4- Martin Burke, John Mrofcza, Stephen Flint, and Bill Johnston Absent: 2- Ruth Sweetser, and Leigh Giuliano 200030 PC 20-03: Beyond Self-Storage, 850 E. Roosevelt Road The petitioner requests a zoning conditional use pursuant to Section 155.417(G)(2)(b) of the Lombard Village Code to allow for “Storage centers, provided that the use fronts along an arterial roadway” on the subject property located within the B4A Roosevelt Road Corridor District. (DISTRICT #6) Sworn in to present the petition were JJ Jenkins, Kevin Polit, William Bohne, the petitioners, and Jennifer Ganser, Assistant Director. Mr. Jenkins said Beyond Self Storage in based in Kansas City and was launched in 2016. They have locations in Arlington Heights and Willowbrook. They own and operate their facilities. The site has been vacant for a long time and has wetlands and floodway. This site plan avoids the floodway. The engineering plans provide detention and a release of the water. The lowest height of the building faces the residential lots to the east. They removed a variance for a side yard setback on the east side. They meet height and setback Codes. They removed the air conditioning units on the east side. All loading will be done inside the building. He showed a chart of other potential uses and the potential traffic and noted this is a low traffic use. He anticipates four cars per hour. Vice Chairperson Flint asked for public comment. Mr. Dan Jaskier said he is President of Glass Courts Fitness and lives nearby. He is concerned about flooding and has seen the 100 year flood every 3 to 5 years. He said the area is shaped like a bowl. He showed pictures of a park bench that in flood water. He said he doesn’t want FEMA to restructure the flood maps. Mr. Jeremy Hopps said he has been a resident for 10 years and purchased his house in December 2018. He is concerned about making a left onto Ahrens from Roosevelt Road. He would like to maintain the look of the neighborhood. He said there are plenty of self-storage facilities. He said there is not a single 3-story building within 1 mile of this site. He said he is concerned about traffic and the size of the vehicles at the site. Ms. Stephanie Ostrowski said she is not happy with another storage Village of Lombard Page 7 Plan Commission Minutes February 3, 2020 center. She said this is a residential neighborhood and is also concerned about flooding. She said this should go into an industrial area and this may damage their home values. Ms. Geraldine DeFalco said most of the surrounding buildings are 1-story not 3-stories. She asked if there was a need for this, what kind of landscaping will be planted, will they use rodent control, how will they turn left onto Roosevelt, where are the air conditioning units, will trailers be stored outside, and who will maintain the property. She said she is concerned about flooding. Mr. Tomas Novickas said he lives nearby and commented on the height. He said the pictures looked basic and he didn’t see much landscaping. Mr. Richard Thomas said he concerned about flooding and the Village doesn’t need more solid property. Ms. Rosemary Kosta said she is concerned about flooding and the appearance on the neighborhood. She is worried about the animals that live there now and additional mosquitos. Mr. Hopps said he can see a tall sign on Roosevelt Road from his front yard. He said this building will impact the neighborhood. Ms. Rawoof said she lived here for 15 years and is concerned about flooding and property values. Ms. Valerie Ewoldt said she turned in a neighborhood petition. She is concerned about flooding. She said there was standing water in January 2020 at Old Grove and if not done correctly the situation will get worse. Mr. Bob Ostrowski said he will see a big wall and building and that will decrease property values. Mr. Ron DeFalco said he is concerned about building height and mass. Ms. Ostrowski the neighbors don’t want this development and it will hurt the residents. Vice Chairperson Flint asked for the petitioner to comment. Village of Lombard Page 8 Plan Commission Minutes February 3, 2020 Mr. Jenkins asked for his civil engineer to address the flooding concerns. William Bohne said he is a licensed engineer. They are using the latest floodplain maps, updated in the last 12 months. He said they are avoiding the floodplain storage. They are using the most current rainfall data, which was a higher rainfall data amount. They will follow the DuPage County stormwater ordinance. He said the concept plan was submitted to IDOT and they received preliminary approval for their curb cut. He said they are preserving some trees on the site. Commissioner Burke asked Mr. Bohne to explain the design and where the water will go. Mr. Bohne said the floodway drains to the northwest to a floodplain. He said that will be preserved and will not be filled in. He said two retention ponds will be constructed. A pipe will drain the pond into Sugar Creek. A restrictor will be installed. He reviewed the engineering on the site. He said there will be a 6’ tall wood fence on the north and east. He said portions currently sheet drain to the east, however, after development stormwater will be captured in their system. He explained the depth of the pond. Commissioner Johnston asked if they will control all the water on their property and Mr. Bohne said yes. Mr. Jenkins said there is a setback of over 200’ on the north. He said the AC units were moved to the north with screening, or the back with screening. He said the bulk of the landscaping is on the east side. He said they are a data driven company and review supply and demand research. He said there will not be outside storage. Professional landscape companies are hired to maintain the property. He said the setback on the east is 40’, and they did not request a variance. He noted the property is zoned for commercial use and they are below the 40’ height per Code. He said they use a professional pest control company. Commissioner Johnston asked about photometrics and Mr. Jenkins said the lights face Roosevelt Road or the parking lot. There are no longer doors that open to the east. Commissioner Johnston asked about the building colors. Mr. Kevin Polit, the architect, said the building is slate gray and beige. He said the windows are clear vision glass. The windows on the residential side are frosted to not allow a direct line of sight outside. Commissioner Johnston asked about the landscaping and the height Village of Lombard Page 9 Plan Commission Minutes February 3, 2020 of trees. Mr. Jenkins said the intent is to be fast growing trees. The site is heavily wooded and some trees will be saved. Vice Chairperson Flint asked for the staff report. Ms. Ganser presented the staff report, which was submitted to the public record in its entirety. The petitioner is proposing to develop the subject property for a storage center. A companion petition, PC 20-02, is to allow storage centers as a conditional use in the B4A zoning district. The property is currently vacant, commercially zoned as B4A, and is proposed to be redeveloped with a three-story building, associated parking, and the requisite stormwater management. A neighborhood meeting was held on December 11, 2019. Plans were adjusted based on neighbor feedback: AC units were moved and a variance for the transitional building setback was removed. The subject property is vacant lot. The property is zoned for commercial use as B4A. The property has been zoned for commercial use since the 1960s. The subject property is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan’s recommendation of community commercial uses for the site. Storage centers are a relatively quiet use, compared to other uses allowed in the zoning district. The proposed use is compatible with the surrounding commercial uses, as a conditional use. The site plan meets the bulk requirements for all setbacks and height. The petitioner has met with DuPage County and will be following the DuPage County Stormwater Ordinance. Ms. Ewoldt said 2/3 of the lot will be improved and trees will be removed. She said she is still concerned about drainage and flooding. She asked what happens when the ponds overflow. Mr. Bohne said the basins are filled with vegetation. The basins will hold the water and will drain to the where it drains today, they have to drain the water to the same location as today. Ms. Ewodt said there are trees there now that absorb water now. Mr. Bohne said that’s the reason for the stormwater detention. Vice Chairperson Flint said during the permitting process they will need to meet the regulations. Vice Chairperson Flint asked if there were questions on the staff report. Village of Lombard Page 10 Plan Commission Minutes February 3, 2020 Mr. Novickas said the Roosevelt Road master plan tries to limit curb cuts but this doesn’t meet that criteria. Ms. Ganser said that isn’t a criteria the petitioner has to follow as it’s not part of Code. She agreed there will not be cross access. Each property is looked at on a case by case basis and with this property the floodway may impede cross access. Mr. Novickas noted the petitioner is applying for a conditional use. Ms. Ganser said the plan is for the corridor and this property has stormwater issues that may not make this possible, that’s why staff can be supportive. Mr. Jenkins said he agreed. He did contact the neighbor to the east and he did not want cross access; the property to the west has floodway and would add extra turns to get into their site. Vice Chairperson Flint opened the meeting for comments among the Commissioners. Commissioner Burke asked what the impervious amount is and Mr. Bohne said its approximately 34%. Commissioner Burke asked if trees absorb a lot of water during a rain or flood. Mr. Bohne said that would depend on the type of tree, the deeper the roots the more the tree will take up. He said they are using deep rooted native vegetation in the pond. Commissioner Burke asked about the need and clarified that is not in the purview of the Plan Commission. Ms. Ganser said that is correct and the Village assumes the developer looks into that. Commissioner Burke confirmed that zoning issues are only discussed here. Ms. Ganser said yes, and she noted there is additional public comment at Board meetings. However, a needs study is not asked for at a Board meeting either. Commissioner Burke made a motion, adding a condition that the petitioner will provide additional landscaping and screening on the east property line. On a motion by Commissioner Burke, and a second by Commissioner Johnston, the Plan Commission voted 4-0 to recommend that the Village Board approve the petition associated with PC 20-01, subject to the following four (4) conditions: 1. The petitioner shall develop the site in accordance with the plans submitted as part of this request and as modified by the conditions of approval set forth herein. 2. The petitioner shall satisfactorily address all other development comments identified within the Inter-Department Review Report as part of any future permits as part of the project. 3. The petitioner shall be required to apply for and receive building permits for Village of Lombard Page 11 Plan Commission Minutes February 3, 2020 any activity and/or improvements to the subject property. 4. The petitioner will provide additional landscaping and screening on the east property line. The motion carried by the following vote: Aye: 4- Martin Burke, John Mrofcza, Stephen Flint, and Bill Johnston Absent: 2- Ruth Sweetser, and Leigh Giuliano 200049 PC 20-04: Text Amendments to the Zoning Code, Outdoor Dining The petitioner, the Village of Lombard, is requesting zoning text amendments to the following Sections of Title XV., Chapter 155 of the Lombard Village Code, and other relevant sections for clarity: 1. Amend Section 155.413(B) and 155.413(K) of the Village Code to add “Outdoor Dining, as an accessory use to a restaurant or grocery store, subject to Chapter 119 of the Lombard Village Code,” to the list of permitted uses in the B1 Limited Neighborhood Shopping District and amend the Restrictions on Business Uses; 2. Amend Section 155.414(K) of the Village Code relative to Restrictions on Business Uses in the B2 General Neighborhood Shopping Districts; 3. Amend Section 155.415(I) of the Village Code relative to Restrictions on Business Uses in the B3 Community Shopping District; 4. Amend Section 155.416(K) of the Village Code relative to Restrictions on Business Uses in the B4 Corridor Commercial Shopping District; 5. Amend Section 155.417(G)(1)(a) and Section 155.417(G)(10) of the Village Code to add “Outdoor Dining, as an accessory use to a restaurant or grocery store, subject to Chapter 119 of the Lombard Village Code” to the list of permitted uses in the B4A Roosevelt Road Corridor District and amend the Restrictions on Business Uses; 6. Amend Section 155.418(I) of the Village Code relative to Restrictions on Business Uses in the B5 Central Business District; 7. Amend Section 155.419(I) of the Village Code relative to Restrictions on Business Uses in the B5A Downtown Perimeter District; 8. Amend Section 155.802 of the Village Code to define “outdoor dining” and amend the definition of “outdoor café”; (DISTRICT ALL) Sworn in to present the petition were Jennifer Ganser, Assistant Director and Anna Papke, Senior Planner. Ms. Ganser presented the staff report, which was submitted to the public record in its entirety. The petitioner, the Village of Lombard, is requesting text amendments to the Lombard Zoning Ordinance to allow outdoor dining on private property as a permitted use in all business districts. The definitions of outdoor dining and outdoor cafes will be defined separately. The Plan Commission held a workshop on August Village of Lombard Page 12 Plan Commission Minutes February 3, 2020 19, 2019. Commissioners provided positive feedback to the research conducted by staff. Unanimous approvals of conditional uses of outdoor dining and that many other municipalities allow outdoor dining as a permitted use prompted staff to recommend simplifying the process for restaurant owners to install outdoor dining. Staff will update Chapter 119 to add business regulations for outdoor dining on private property. This will be reviewed by the ECDC. Vice Chairperson Flint opened the meeting for comments among the Commissioners. On a motion by Commissioner Johnston, and a second by Commissioner Mrofcza, the Plan Commission voted 4-0 to recommend that the Village Board approve the petition associated with PC 20-04. The motion carried by the following vote: Aye: 4- Martin Burke, John Mrofcza, Stephen Flint, and Bill Johnston Absent: 2- Ruth Sweetser, and Leigh Giuliano 200048 PC 20-08: Text Amendment to the Zoning Ordinance (Title XV, Chapter 155, Section 155.510 of the Lombard Village Code) Open Space in Planned Developments An Ordinance approving an amendment to Section 155.510 of the Lombard Village Code in regard to open space requirements for planned developments, and any other relevant sections for clarity. Staff requests a waiver of first reading. (DISTRICTS - ALL) Sworn in to present the petition was Anna Papke, Senior Planner. Vice-Chair Flint read the Plan Commission procedures and asked if anyone other than the petitioner intended to cross examine and, hearing none, he proceeded with the petition. Vice-Chair Flint asked if any person would like to speak in favor or against this petition, or for public comment. Hearing none, he asked for the staff report. Ms. Papke presented the staff report, which was submitted to the public record in its entirety. The Village is requesting a text amendment to clarify how open space is calculated within planned developments. Planned developments commonly include multiple parcels with open Village of Lombard Page 13 Plan Commission Minutes February 3, 2020 space concentrated on one parcel in a stormwater outlot. This pattern of development would suggest that open space standards should be applied holistically to the planned development rather than to individual parcels within the planned development. However, the Village Code is silent on this matter, which presents uncertainty during permit review for proposed development on individual parcels within planned developments. The proposed text amendment will clarify that open space in planned developments shall be calculated for the entire planned development rather than for an individual parcel within a planned development. This approach reflects past policy decisions as well as the Village Code’s stated intent with respect to planned developments. The text amendment also clarifies existing provisions related to common open space within planned developments. Vice-Chair Flint asked for public comment, and, hearing none, opened the meeting for comments among the Commissioners. . On a motion by Commissioner Johnston, and a second by Commissioner Burke, the Plan Commission voted 4-0 to recommend that the Village Board approve the petition associated with PC 20-08. The motion carried by the following vote: Aye: 4- Martin Burke, John Mrofcza, Stephen Flint, and Bill Johnston Absent: 2- Ruth Sweetser, and Leigh Giuliano Business Meeting Approval of Minutes No Minutes to approve Public Participation There was no public participation DuPage County Hearings There was no DuPage County hearings Village of Lombard Page 14 Plan Commission Minutes February 3, 2020 Chairperson's Report The Chairperson deferred to the Assistant Director of Community Development Planner's Report There was no Planners report Unfinished Business There was no unfinished business New Business There was no new business Subdivision Reports There was no subdivision reports Site Plan Approvals There was no site plan approvals Workshops There was no workshops Adjournment A motion was made by Commissioner Burke, seconded by Commissioner Johnston, to adjourn the meeting at 9:13 p.m. The motion passed by a unanimous vote Village of Lombard Page 15 Plan Commission Minutes February 3, 2020 _______________________ Stephen Flint, Vice Chairperson Lombard Plan Commission __________________________ Jennifer Ganser, Secretary Lombard Plan Commission Village of Lombard Page 16
