Lockerby, Village Manager FROM: -T^L^^ S^^^_^,^^<' Max Slankard, Director of Public Works ^^ Michael Aleksic, Assistant Finance Director DATE: 3/22/2021 SUBJECT: Emergency Snow Expenditures (Agenda Item) During the extreme snowfall events of February 2021, the Village received snowfall accumulations in excess of 45" of snow in a three-week period. This was culminated with a 17" snowfall on February 14 and 15. This had the net effect of drastically reducing the roadway widths in many locations in Skokie, making the movements of emergency vehicles throughout the community extremely problematic. Moreover, clearing snow in multi-family areas of the community was particularly challenging, as there was little to no space available to push snow with conventional plows. Given the tremendous volume of snow, the Village needed to hire contracted leaders and operators to assist in our snow removal efforts. ITiese efforts included snow removal from. roadways and parking lots, industrial areas, and clearing and freeing of roadway drainage structures. Ill the interest of public safety and general welfare. Village staff enacted the Emergency Purchases Provision and obtained proposals for these services on a time and material basis. We have received invoicmg from Mauro Sewer Constmction, Inc. in the amount of $47,223 for services rendered for the period 2/16/21 through 2/26/21. Per section 2-1018 of the Skokie Village Code, staff is hereby requesting that the Village Board is advised of this emergency procurement. The repair will be funded through the Capital Improvement Program, Sewer System Improvements line item account 020-6000-407-07-31, Project Code OP460S2 as well as account 020—6000-407-0725 OL12011.

Case Descriptions: 2021-06P – Special Use Permit: 3900 Dempster Street DD Pacini, LLC, is requesting a special use permit for a new construction limited service restaurant with a drive-through facility in a B2 Commercial district and any relief that may be discovered during the review of this case. 2021-07P – Special Use Permit: 3900 Dempster Street DD Pacini, LLC, is requesting a special use permit for outdoor dining and any relief that may be discovered during the review of this case. PIN: 10-14-309-070-0000 Discussion and Interested Parties Legal notice was advertised, posted, and delivered to property owners in the area as prescribed by the Zoning Chapter. Corporation Counsel determined that notice was proper and correct. The local business franchisee, Reena Panjwani Khowaja, and architect, Steve Kolber of Kolbrook Design, Inc. presented the cases. The current Dunkin Donuts has been a tenant of the subject site for 10-15 years and the 60-70-year old building has served its useful life. It will be demolished and a new Dunkin Donuts with a drive-through facility which meets updated corporate standards will take its place with a slightly larger footprint. The new building is being pushed a little further north and a small 3-table patio for outdoor dining VOSDOCS-#585952-v1-Master_Plan_Commission_Report_for_2021-06P__Special_use_permit_for_limited- service_restaurant_w_drive-through_at_3900_Dempster.docx 6 of 12 will be provided. They are confident that the new site plan will offer a more efficient drive- through experience and creates a better parking layout. Staff requested that the reports be accepted into the record as presented. The complex of buildings, at 1 time, was all under single ownership with shared access drives and parking. Staff worked very hard with the petitioner to design the presented plan and is in support of the requests. The new plan increases parking, improves traffic circulation and site landscaping will be significantly improved. It will also continue the trend of new investment on this retail block. A commissioner asked if there were any citizen comments regarding the case. Staff replied that only 1 call came in from across Dempster Street; just being curious. There were no other public comments. Another commissioner wanted verification that trash collection & receptacles were addressed in the list of conditions. Staff referred to Conditions 7 & 8 in the new construction report and Conditions 3 & 5 in the outdoor dining report. The chairman asked about the timeline. They hope to start as soon as they can with a completion in early fall 2021. Recommendations and Voting Motions were made to approve staff’s recommendation to approve the petitioner’s requests for special use permits for a new construction limited service restaurant with a drive- through facility and outdoor dining at 3900 Dempster Street in a B2 Commercial district, subject to the recommended conditions.

PETITIONER’S SUBMITTAL DD Pacini, LLC, on behalf of Kolbrook Design, Inc., is requesting a special use permit for a new construction limited-service restaurant with a drive-through facility in a B2 Commercial district and any relief that may be discovered during the review of this case. The proposal is to replace the existing Dunkin’ Donuts store with a drive-through with a new Dunkin’ store with a drive-through. The new plan increases the efficiency of the parking and traffic circulation, provides an area for outdoor dining, and replaces the aging structure with a more modern one. The petitioner provided the following statement: Thank you for your consideration of our project [at 3900 Dempster Street.] The new Dunkin building we are proposing is to be constructed on the site of the existing Dunkin location that we are demolishing, which has been in existence for decades. The new site plan and building provides a more efficient queue experience for drive-thru patrons, creates a better parking layout and offers a much-needed update to meet the latest Dunkin corporate standards in terms of operations and aesthetics. Updates that are all sorely needed at this location. We are confident that the overall impact on the immediate neighborhood is virtually unchanged as ownership, operational hours and of course the acclaimed offering of Dunkin fare will not change. Traffic conditions will be improved due to a better designed drive-thru queue allowing for more capacity and speed. Public utilities and storm water detention will not change other than slight relocation due to the adjustment of the building footprint, which VOSDOCS-#585952-v1-Master_Plan_Commission_Report_for_2021-06P__Special_use_permit_for_limited- service_restaurant_w_drive-through_at_3900_Dempster.docx 9 of 12 is pushed a bit further North. Additionally, a patio is being provided for open air dining for patrons to enjoy in warmer months. STAFF ANALYSIS Staff Comment and Review requests were sent to all pertinent departments and were received from Environmental Health, Traffic Engineering, and Planning. All other departments returned the requests with no comments regarding the subject case, and/or comments were provided in related cases. Comments related to the overall development are included in this case. Environmental Health The Environmental Health Division notes that its final approval is contingent upon the Health Department Final Inspection at the time of building permit and certificate of occupancy. Traffic Engineering The parking requirement is met, with 17 parking spaces required and 17 provided. Minor modifications to the site plan need to be made: 1. The length of the landscape islands at each end of the southern tier of parking need to be increased to match the length of the parking spaces, making a consistent 24’ driveway width. 2. The 2 parking spaces on the east side of the building should be reduced to a stall depth of 16' with a 2' bumper overhang into the landscaped area. 3. Verify that the sidewalk on the south side of the building is a minimum of 7' wide to accommodate a 2’ [bumper] overhang and a 5’ clear sidewalk width. Staff accepts the applicant’s traffic study with respect to site improvements and stacking. The changes will increase the capacity of the existing queue and better separate it from the other uses on the site. Planning Planning is supportive of the petitioner’s request. Staff worked diligently with the petitioner to design the plan presented. The new plan increases parking, improves traffic circulation, and increases permeable surfaces. Site landscaping will be significantly improved, and the new construction will continue the trend of new investment on this retail block. No items of relief were discovered during the review of this case.

PIN: 10-14-309-070-0000 Discussion and Interested Parties Legal notice was advertised, posted, and delivered to property owners in the area as prescribed by the Zoning Chapter. Corporation Counsel determined that notice was proper and correct. The local business franchisee, Reena Panjwani Khowaja, and architect, Steve Kolber of Kolbrook Design, Inc. presented the cases. The current Dunkin Donuts has been a tenant of the subject site for 10-15 years and the 60-70-year old building has served its useful life. It will be demolished and a new Dunkin Donuts with a drive-through facility which meets updated corporate standards will take its place with a slightly larger footprint. The new building is being pushed a little further north and a small 3-table patio for outdoor dining VOSDOCS-#585956-v1-Master_Plan_Commission_Report_for_2021- 07P__Special_use_permit_for_outdoor_dining_at_3900_Dempster.docx 5 of 10 will be provided. They are confident that the new site plan will offer a more efficient drive- through experience and creates a better parking layout. Staff requested that the reports be accepted into the record as presented. The complex of buildings, at 1 time, was all under single ownership with shared access drives and parking. Staff worked very hard with the petitioner to design the presented plan and is in support of the requests. The new plan increases parking, improves traffic circulation and site landscaping will be significantly improved. It will also continue the trend of new investment on this retail block. A commissioner asked if there were any citizen comments regarding the case. Staff replied that only 1 call came in from across Dempster Street; just being curious. There were no other public comments. Another commissioner wanted verification that trash collection & receptacles were addressed in the list of conditions. Staff referred to Conditions 7 & 8 in the new construction report and Conditions 3 & 5 in the outdoor dining report. The chairman asked about the timeline. They hope to start as soon as they can with a completion in early fall 2021. Recommendations and Voting Motions were made to approve staff’s recommendation to approve the petitioner’s requests for special use permits for a new construction limited service restaurant with a drive- through facility and outdoor dining at 3900 Dempster Street in a B2 Commercial district, subject to the recommended conditions.
