contained within the outdoor seating permit and increasing the required sidewalk
clearance for liquor licensed establishments from five to eight feet.
Patrick Neary, Quiubo, spoke against the 8' requirement.
Council discussed restaurant caps and the appropriateness of allowing
variances.
Laff stated a provision could be written into the ordinance that changes may be
approved administratively by Council and not need a formal variance.
Barbara Stark, Naperville, spoke in favor of the 8' recommendation and
discussed how sidewalk width impacts persons with disabilities.
Council discussed inspections and code compliance, that no complaints have
been received and no violations have been cited, and the minimum accessible
width.
Gary Smith, discussed accessibility and spoke in favor of an 8' minimum
requirement.

Mayor's Commission for Disabilities, and overall pedestrian traffic in the

City of Naperville Page 5 Printed on 4/5/2018
City Council Meeting Minutes March 21, 2018
promote opportunities for seniors to be active in the community, and stated that
seniors will be less likely to visit downtown if accessibility is restricted.
Gabe Nanni, Craftsman, explained how the seating area is designed and
discussed that 8' will be an issue for most businesses.
Laff explained that five establishments will comply with the 6' clearance, the 6'
recommendation of the Downtown Advisory Commission (DAC) is consistent
with streetscape standards, acceptable to the task forces and the Mayor's
Commission for Disabilities. She stated that row widths vary in the downtown,
obstructions like garbage cans, benches, trees, planters will always be present,
it is not realistic to require larger clearance because it would eliminate a number
of establishments for both liquor and general outdoor seating, and summarized
that DAC recommended 6' minimum with 8' where possible for all
establishments providing table service.
Council discussed sidewalk sales, sunset provision, investment by the
establishment, permanence, the appropriateness of a blanket ordinance or
evaluating applications on a case-by-case basis, and the streetscape project.

and has a five-year implmentation timeline.
Novack summarized site analysis, turn around points, and appropriate width for
passing.
Council discussed the approval process, impediments, seating area at the
Craftsman, public seating in the area, and whether regulations should not be
implemented until after the streetscape project approved. Council further
discussed the length of the outdoor seating license, impact to ice cream shops,
installing public vs. private seating areas, appropriate fees, wi-fi access points,
sunset clause, semi/permanent structures, amenity zones, and height
regulations.
A motion was made by Councilwoman Brodhead, seconded by Councilman
Coyne, to pass the ordinance as amended to read: pass the ordinance
amending Chapter 3, Title 3, Section 11 (Liquor License and Permit
Classifications) of the Naperville Municipal Code eliminating the sunset

required sidewalk clearance for liquor licensed establishments from five to six
feet and eight feet whenever possible.

Councilman Coyne, to pass the ordinance as amended to read: pass the
