SUBJECT: MANAGER'S REPORT
BOARD MEETING OF MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 16,2024
A. CrawfordI Avenue (Cook County Road) Phase II Design Enqineerinq Services
and Execution of Intergovernmental Agreement with Cook County.
The Village has been working with Cook County to reconstruct County road,
Crawford Avenue between Oakton Street and Golf Road, This is a County
roadway and thus the Village's involvement is strategic and is expediting the
project. Preliminary Engineering is now complete and the Design Engineering is
ready to commence. The Village will be leading the Design Engineering Phase
which requires entering into an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) with the
County for reimbursement. Staff is recommending the use of Christopher B. Burke
Engineering, Ltd. to perform design engineering services. The Village will
ultimately only be responsible for up to $152,963 to cover design of local
improvements. These are improvements beyond the scope of the County.
i concur with staff's recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and Board
approval of these two separate items;
• A-1: to award a contract to Christopher B. Burke Engineering in the amount
not to exceed $1,902,110 for Design Engineering Services.
• A-2: approval of the prepared Resolution authorizing the execution of the
Intergovernmental Agreement with Cook County for the Crawford Avenue
Reconstruction Project.
B. Construction Work Associated with Undergroundinq Utilities alona the
Transit-Oriented Corridor of Skokie Boulevard.
There are multiple Skokie Boulevard properties slated for new construction
redevelopment between the blocks of 8047 and 8201 Skokie Boulevard. The
current location of the overhead utilities prevents achieving the transit-oriented
vision of redeveloping these properties and therefore necessitate undergrounding
the electric and other utilities such as telephone and cable. The project will be
completed in two geographic parts. The first portion will be along the alley south of
Keeney Street along the 8047 Skokie Boulevard property. The second (future)
portion of the undergrounding will continue from Keeney Street up to the north line
of the redevelopment property located at the northeast corner of Cleveland Street
and Skokie Boulevard (8201 Skokie Boulevard). In total, both portions of this
project will include undergrounding of 1,100 feet of utilities, the removal of 14

utility poies and 35 new service connections for both residentiai and commercial
properties. The combined investment of these private development projects will
exceed $100 million in new deveiopment in the approximateiy four block section.
Staff recommends an expenditure of $210,246.26 to Commonwealth Edison
(ComEd) from the Downtown Science & Technology tax increment financing (TIF)
to support the next step in this multi-phase project of undergrounding utilities. I
concur with staff's recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and Board
approval.
* C. Agreement with Lincolnwood.
The Village of Skokie has been working with the Village of Lincolnwood regarding
street resurfacing of Lamon Avenue between Pratt and Estes Avenues and Jarvis
Avenue between Crawford and Hamlin Avenues. The public rights of way in these
areas are bisected by our shared Village boundary. Lincoinwood agreed to take
the lead and include pavement replacement for our sections of the roadway.
Shared construction provides a for better pavement condition, minimizes
construction disturbance and minimizes cost. The estimated cost to Skokie for this
work is $415,000 and the monies are in the Fiscal Year 2025 budget. A
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) has been prepared to lay out obligations
of both Villages during the shared resurfacing. I concur with staff's
recommendation and respectfuliy request Mayor and Board approval to execute
the Resoiution to approve the MOU with the Village of LincoSnwood.
* D. Illinois Transpprtation Enhancement Program Grant Application -
Resolution of Financial Commitment
The Village has been working on projects to improve both pedestrian and bicycle
mobility. Staff is seeking funding for improvements on Main Street from Lincoln
Avenue to McCormick Boulevard. The anticipated improvements incfude
pavement markings rehabiiitation for the entire limits, additional pedestrian
crosswalks, median constructions, street iighting replacement and curb
extensions. The Village seeks to submit a grant application for the illinois
Transportation Enhancement Program (!TEP) administered by the Illinois
Department of Transportation (IDOT). The anticipated "local match" for this
application is $1,100,000. A successful ITEP application should allow the project
to be scheduled for 2026. The grant application requires a resolution of financial
commitment to the project. I concur with staff's recommendation to proceed with
the grant application. Mayor and Board approvai of the Resolution authorizing the
financiai commitment is respectfully requested.
* E, 2024 High Priority Street Resurfacing Proaram - Schroeder Asphalt
Services, Inc., Huntley, Illinois - $544,956.
This project provides for the removal and replacement of two inches of hot-mix
asphalt at various locations throughout the Village. The contract wili also repair
several sections of the bike path along the Sculpture Park Trail. General Revenue
Fund, Economic Deveiopment Fund and Community Development Block Grants
(CDBG) wiil be used to fund the cost of the project. It is recommended that a
contract be awarded to Schroeder Asphalt Services, Inc,, the lowest responsive
and responsible bidder, in the amount of $544,956. Schroeder Asphait has
worked on several Village projects in the past with favorable results. It is
anticipated that the project wiii begin in October and be completed within 20

Subject: AGENDA ITEM - September 16, 2024 Board Meeting
A) Crawford Avenue Phase II Design Engineering
B) Execution of Intergovernmental Agreement with the County of Cook
The Village ofSkokie has been working with the County of Cook towards the improvement of
Crawford Avenue between Oakton Street and Golf Road. This section of roadway is under
County jurisdiction. The Village led the Preliminary Engineering efforts with Christopher B.
Burke Engineering, Ltd. and previously entered into an Intergovernmental Agreement ("IGA")
with the County for reimbursement. A public meeting was held in March 2023 to obtain
feedback on the project and the proposed preliminary design.
Preliminary Engineering is complete and Design Engineering is ready to commence. The
Village and the County have negotiated with Burke and they have provided a proposal
acceptable to all parties. The Village will be leading Design Engineering as well and this
requires entering into another IGA with the County for reimbursement. The 1GA negotiations
are ongoing, but Design Engineering can get underway. As a result, we recommend that the
Village execute a contract for Design Engineering Services with Christopher B. Burke, Ltd.,
Rosemont, Illinois in the amount of $1,902,110. A detailed scope of work and cost proposal is
attached. The Village will ultimately only be responsible for up to $152,963 to cover the
design of local improvements.
Thus, it is recommended that the Mayor and Board of Trustees authorize the award of a
contract to Christopher B. Burke Engineering, Ltd., Rosemont, Illinois, in the not to exceed
amount of $1,902,110, for Design Engineering Services for the Crawford Avenue
Reconstruction Project.

Therefore it is also recommended that the Village execute the IGA with the County governing
the responsibilities of both during Design Engineering. This requires approval of the prepared
Resolution authorizing the execution of the Intergovernmental Agreement with the County of
Cook for Improvements along Crawford Avenue from Oakton Street to Golf Road.
Please present these recommendations to the Mayor and Board of Trustees at the September
16, 2024 regularly scheduled meeting.

Request for Construction Work Associated with Undergrounding of Utilities
Recommendation
Staff recommends the Village Board authorize a not exceed expenditure of $210,246.26 to
Commonwealth Edison (ComEd) from the Downtown Science & Technology tax increment
financing (TIF) to support a multi-phase project of undergroundmg utilities that serve either side
of the north-south alley, east of Skokie Boulevard in the blocks between 8047 and 820 1 Skokie
Boulevard. The current location of the overhead utilities is prohibiting redevelopment and must
be buried for redevelopment of these sites to proceed. The project will be completed in two
geographic parts. The first portion will be along the alley south ofKeeney Street along the 8047
Skokie Boulevard property. The 8047 Skokie Boulevard has already been approved by the
Village for redevelopment as a mixed-use building to be constructed by BAS 5 Development
LLC (Gary Levitas). The expenditure to ComEd for undergrounding its' line in this location is
$110,246.26. Future phases of this portion will include undergrounding the low-voltage utilities,
new services connection from each building to the buried lines, and electrical contractor services
to reconnect at each building. Costs associated for these additional phases will be brought to the
Village Board for approval at a later date.
The second (future) portion of the undergrounding will continue from Keeney Street up to the
north line of the redevelopment property located at the northeast comer of Cleveland and Skokie
Boulevard (8201 Skokie Boulevard). For the second portion, the expenditure to ComEd that is
being requested at this time is an advanced engineering deposit of $100,000.00. Upon payment,
ComEd will commence the design engineering work for the second portion. The actual
construction cost of second portion will be provided by ComEd in a future work agreement once
the design engineering has been completed. The ComEd construction cost for the second portion
will be brought for Village Board review and approval at a later date.
In total, both portions of this project will include the undergrounding of 1,100 feet of utilities, the
removal of 14 utility poles, and 35 new service connections for both residential and commercial
properties. The attached map highlights the extent of the project and the poles that will be
buried.

Summary
This project is precipitated by multiple Skokie Blvd. properties that are slated for new
construction redevelopment. The current location of the overhead utilities prevents us from
achieving the transit-oriented vision of redeveloping these properties, and therefore necessitate
the undergrounding. The redevelopment projects are:
• 8047 Skokie Boulevard m Approved for redevelopment of a five-story, 56-unit apartment
building with 5,837 square feet of commercial space.
• 8101 Skokie Boulevard m Presently in early reviews for development ofamulti-family
building including 20 units and 5,275 square feet of commercial space.
• 8157 Skokie Boulevard - Village-owned property in process of identifying development
outcome. Conceptual plans have been developed for this site with a five-story, 90-unit
apartment building with and 1,150 square feet of commercial space.
• 8201 Skokie Boulevard - VHlage-owned property with developer identified and potential
Site Plan Approval moving forward in early 2025. The conceptual plan for this property
contains a six-story apartment building with 66 units and a first floor 1,400 square foot
flex retail/tenant space.
As part of the new construction, and per Village Code Section 22-93(4) 230.1 New
commercial, industrial and residential structures requiring electrical service shall be served
underground in an approved manner, and shall be suitably protected against physical damage.
Due to the fact that there are so many redevelopment projects clustered in a single corridor, it is
recommended that this project be done together as a single project to facilitate an economy of
scale and minimize disruption due to this work.
The combined investment of these private projects, exceeds $100 million in new development in
the approximately four block section. The existing above-ground utilities are located on the west
side of the alley and interfere with redevelopment of these sites. This also represents an
opportunity to create additional reliability and resiliency of electrical service in this section of
Skokie. Overhead lines can be more easily damaged during extreme weather.
In addition to the ComEd undergrounding, future phases of the project will include:
• Relocation of the above ground lines for low voltage utilities to be moved into the new
alley trench. (AT&T, RCN, Xfinity, etc.)
• Boring service lines for utilities to each property along the east side of the alley from the
alley trench.
• Costs for electrical contractors to connect the utilities to home services.
The cost estimates for these items are in development and will be coming forward at a later date
for Village Board review and approval once costs are known.
The Village's agreement with the developer of 8047 Skokie Boulevard provided that the Village
maintain responsibility for utility relocation; the private property at 8101 Skokie Boulevard will
be responsible for costs associated with burial of utilities once development commences. Cost
sharing or reimbursement of costs related to 8157 and 8201 Skokie Boulevard will be addressed
as part of the future development agreements for those properties.

Subject: AGENDA ITEM
September 16,2024 - Village ofSkokie Board Meeting
Agreement with Lincolawood
The Village ofSkokie has been working with the Village ofLincolnwood regarding street resurfacing
of Lamon Avenue between Pratt Avenue and Estes Avenue and Jarvis Avenue between Crawford
Avenue and Hamlin Avenue. The public rights of way in these areas are bisected by our shared Village
boundary. Therefore, each Village is responsible for half of Lamon Avenue and half of Jarvis Avenue
in these areas. Our portions ofLamon Avenue and Jarvis Avenue are due for resurfacing.
Lincoinwood agreed to take the lead and include pavement replacement for our sections of the
roadways in their project. Including our pavement replacement in their project is beneficial for both
Villages. Shared construction provides a better overall product in terms of pavement condition,
minimizes construction disturbance to the surrounding properties and minimizes cost. A Memorandum
of Understanding ("MOU") has been prepared to lay out obligations of both Villages during the shared
resurfacing. The estimated cost to Skokie for this work is $415,000 and the monies are in the FY25
budget.
As a result, I recommend that the Village execute the Resolution to approve the MOU with the Village
of Lincolnwood. The required Resolution has been prepared by Corporation Counsel. The proposed
MOU, containing a Project Location Map^ is attached. Please present these recommendations for
approval to the Mayor and Board of Trustees at the September 16, 2024 regularly scheduled meeting.
Please contact me if there are any questions.

Illinois Transportation Enhancement Program Grant Application
Resolution of Financial Commitment
The Village has been working diligently to improve both pedestrian and bicycle mobility. At this time Staff
is preparing an Illinois Transportation Enhancement Program (ITEP) grant application. Staff is seeking
funding for improvements on Main Street from Lincoln Avenue to McCormick Boulevard. The
improvements would focus on improving safety and access for pedestrians and bicyclists. The original Main
Street bike lanes were implemented in 2015 and require refreshing of the pavement markings. We also hope
to take advantage of this grant opportunity to make other improvements to the corridor. The anticipated
improvements include pavement marking rehabilitation for the entire limits, additional pedestrian
crosswalks, median constructions, street lighting replacement and curb extensions.
The Village seeks to submit a grant application for the Illinois Transportation Enhancement Program
(ITEP) administered by the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) by September 30th. This program
only funds the aspects of projects that support alternate modes of transportation such as biking or walking,
therefore the Main Street Enhancement project is a prime candidate for funding through ITEP. A successful
ITEP application for the Main Street Enhancement project should allow the project to be scheduled for
2026. A successful application would cover 80% of most costs, but 50% of street lighting costs. Grants for
street lighting funding are rare. The majority of the Main Street lighting is original and limited replacement
has occurred using Village annual street lighting funds. A successful grant application would allow
widespread replacement of the lighting, and potentially include upgrades at half the cost and therefore allow
additional street lighting improvements elsewhere. Including a multi-pronged and comprehensive approach
to improvements on Main Street would make this a competitive ITEP grant application. The anticipated
“local match” for this application is $1,100,000.00.
ITEP applications require the Village provide a resolution of financial commitment to the project. The
Resolution have been prepared by Corporation Counsel. In conclusion, we ask that you please present this
recommendation to the Mayor and Board of Trustees for review and approval at September 16, 2024
regularly scheduled meeting:
1. Resolution of Financial Commitment for the Main Street Enhancement Project
Please contact me if there are any questions.

PLAN COMMISSION REPORT 2024-17P: Zoning Chapter Amendment
Plan Commission Council Chambers, 7:30 PM, September 16, 2024
To: Mayor and Board of Trustees
From: Paul Luke, Chairman, Skokie Plan Commission
Case: 2024-17P: Zoning Chapter Amendment
Modifications to Outdoor Dining Regulations
PLAN COMMISSION ANALYSIS
The Plan Commission presents its recommendation to amend certain Outdoor Dining
Regulations in Section 118-93 of the Village Code.
Currently outdoor dining is a permitted use in TX, CX, B3, B4, and H1 zoning districts while it
is a special use in NX, B1, B2, B6, and M1 zoning districts. In order to expedite the outdoor
dining permitting process, staff proposes to allow outdoor dining as a permitted use in all
commercial and mixed-use zoning districts as well as implementing an administrative staff-level
approval process for all outdoor dining permits received. This would allow business owners to
allow their patrons to enjoy their outdoor spaces sooner. Staff recommends retaining some
regulatory controls in the permit approval process to make sure each site is compatible with
surrounding uses, has adequate seating, trash receptacles, and overall safety measures. Staff is
also proposing that any outdoor dining application with requested relief outside of the standard
regulations listed within Section 118-93 (Food Establishments and Food Service Requirements)
of the Village Code such as extended hours, extended dates, or other design standards which will
be required to receive approval from the Zoning Board of Appeals for relief. The proposed
modifications would also eliminate the need for Village Board approval for those outdoor dining
permits that fall within Village standards.
The Plan Commission concurred with staff’s recommendation.
INTERESTED PARTIES
No interested parties appeared.
PLAN COMMISSION RECOMMENDATIONS AND VOTING
The Plan Commission recommends approval of the modifications to Section 118-93 Food
Establishments and Food Service Requirements of the Skokie Village Code to amend certain
outdoor dining regulations. These recommendations were approved on June 6, 2024 by a vote of
5 ayes, 0 nays, with 3 members absent and 1 position vacant.

To: Paul Luke, Chairman, Skokie Plan Commission
From: Justin Malone, Neighborhood & Housing Coordinator
Case: 2024-17P: Zoning Chapter Amendment
Modifications to Outdoor Dining Regulations
General Information
Petitioner Village of Skokie
Purpose The Village of Skokie requests modifications to Section 118-93
Food Establishments and Food Service Requirements, and any
other related sections of the Skokie Village Code to amend
certain outdoor dining regulations and any other modifications
that may be required as determined by Village staff during the
review of this case.
STAFF ANALYSIS
In order to expedite the outdoor dining permitting process, the Community
Development Department is proposing to allow outdoor dining as a permitted use in all
commercial and mixed-use zoning districts as well as implement an administrative staff-
level approval process for all outdoor dining permits received. Outdoor dining
applications with requested relief outside of the standard regulations (i.e. extended
outdoor dining hours) would still be required to receive approval from the Zoning Board
of Appeals for relief.
Although outdoor dining is not a new concept, the interest in dining outdoors increased
significantly during the pandemic. Since then, many business owners have strived to
ensure that an outdoor space to enjoy is made available to patrons. While the Village
currently has a process to allow outdoor dining in specific zoning districts, the process
can be lengthy, especially as a Special Use in certain districts. The lengthy process,
often coupled with the application fees can be seen as a hurdle for many business
owners, especially those who are unfamiliar with the approval process.
Currently, outdoor dining is a permitted use in TX, CX, B3, B4, and H1 zoning districts
and is permitted as a special use in NX, B1, B2, B6, and M1 districts. Staff recommends
retaining some regulatory controls in the outdoor dining approval process to ensure
each site is compatible with surrounding uses, seating, safety, etc. Standard regulations
for outdoor dining currently include limited hours between 8:00 AM and 10:00 PM,
limited months of use between April 1 and October 31, and design or safety standards.

619317 v1-Staff_Report_2024_17P_Zoning_Chapter_Amendment_for_Outdoor_Dining_Regulations
Return to 2024-17P
Under the proposed code modification, relief from any base standards will require
Zoning Board approval.
The proposed changes would:
1. Make outdoor dining a permitted use within all commercial and mixed-use zoning
districts within the Village.
2. Expedite the outdoor dining permit process for applicants by allowing an
administrative review and approval.
3. Eliminate the need for Village Board approval for outdoor dining permits that fall
within Village standards.
4. Applicants with circumstances beyond standard Village code permissions would
be required to receive Zoning Board approval.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the following sections of Chapter 118 - Zoning of the Skokie
Village Code be amended, with text to be added highlighted and text to be removed
highlighted and stricken through in the attached draft ordinance.

Donna Pugh, a Partner with the law firm Foley & Lardner on behalf of the petitioner
started the presentation and stated that the names Westfield Old Orchard, URW might be
used interchangeably throughout the presentation.
Ms. Pugh explained the ownership of the parcels throughout the Old Orchard property
and highlighted which parcels will be focused on both Phase I and Phase II of
development.
Stephen Fleur, Senior Vice President for Westfield, presented Phase I of the development
plan, focusing on the “north mall” section of Old Orchard, north of the Professional
Building.
Mr. Fleur presented changes in the circulation and traffic patterns within Phase I for both
vehicles and pedestrians, with an emphasis on frictionless travel and putting to use the
underutilized Orange parking garage.
Mr. Fleur thanked Village staff for their assistance and guidance through the process.
Justin Pelej, Executive Vice President for Focus, presented examples of similar infill
development work projects in the North Shore region, including Fox Valley Mall and
Hawthorn Mall. Mr. Pelej stated that having apartments and a good mix of tenants at the
mall is important, creating a vibrant space with more activity. Mr. Pelej stated that
multifamily housing at a mall like Old Orchard provides renters who are seeking a
suburban location with the walkability of an urban environment.
Mr. Pelej presented on pedestrian and vehicle access and circulation within Phase 1,
including a drop-off cul-de-sac. He also presented details regarding the 5- and 7-story
residential buildings within the development, including amenities, design standards, and
walkability between buildings.

Vic Howell, Senior Development Manager at Focus, presented on the planned
sustainability and resiliency goals for the development, stating that the project is pursuing
LEED Gold standards. They are following sustainability initiatives per the Village’s
Sustainability Plan and will include amenities such as bike storage, EV charging stations,
and the addition of green space to assist with reducing the urban heat island effect.
Mr. Howell presented that the Village’s recently passed Inclusionary Housing Ordinance
pertaining to Affordable Housing is not applicable to this project due to the date of the
development’s submission, but the developer is proposing 3.5% of the housing as
affordable to residents earning 60-80% area median income (AMI), creating around 15
units of affordable housing on site. Mr. Howell stated that this will assist in targeting
workforce housing residents and young professionals who work in the area.
Stephen Fleur presented Phase II of the development, including both residential and hotel
buildings east of Phase I. Mr. Fleur spoke on vehicle and pedestrian circulation in and
around the site and stated that although a hotel is what the desired goal is for this phase of
the development, it is dependent on economics at the time. Mr. Fleur stated that if the
hotel is not viable at the time, then that building will be planned as multifamily
residential instead. Mr. Fleur stated that the number of affordable residential units for
Phase II would remain at 3.5% as well.
Commissioner Scott Berman asked about finalized entrance and exits for the proposed
parking garages. Mr. Berman also asked if the twenty-foot right-of-way on the proposed
internal road within the development would be wide enough to accommodate two cars
passing.
Kelly Conolly, Transportation Engineer with Sam Schwartz Engineering, presented
details on traffic circulation and parking garage access, stating that the design of the
future underground parking garages will be finalized once structural plans are complete.
The proposed internal road is intentionally narrow for speed reduction and follows the
recommended lane widths of 10-11 feet per lane.
Commissioner Scott Berman asked if parking in the Orange Garage was limited to
residential or will allow for customer retail use. Kelly Conolly answered that only the top
floors of the parking garage will be reserved for residential, the remaining will be for
retail and hotel use.
Justin Pelej stated that they were trying to strike a balance between keeping the street
pedestrian friendly and calm with traffic, but they also spent time reviewing this street
with the Fire Department too make sure it was adequate for them.
Commissioner Jeff Burman asked if the Village’s Bird Strike Mitigations would apply to
the taller buildings within the development. Johanna Nyden, Community Development
Director, stated that these buildings would need to adhere to current policies for Bird
Strike Mitigation, which will come up during permit review.

Commissioner Gevaryahu asked if the parking at the Orange Garage was for both the
north and south buildings of Phase I and how far of a walk is it between the garage and
these buildings. Kelly Conolly stated that for Phase I the parking garage will
accommodate parking for both the north and south portion. Ms. Conolly stated the
distance between the parking garage and the building was approximately 200 feet.
Justin Pelej stated that the intent is that the parking spots will be listed adjacent to the
units where the resident lives, so that they’re not parking across the development.
Commissioner Gevaryahu asked if the retail tenants in the new buildings will be subject
to all of the same standards as the other retail tenants in Old Orchard. Stephen Fleur
stated the new tenants will have the same standards that Old Orchard currently has.
Commissioner Shpayher asked about the location of parking for new businesses as there
are many surface parking spaces being removed.
Kelly Conolly stated that the Orange Garage is currently about 15% occupied on a
December condition and is highly underutilized. Ms. Conolly stated that this garage will
continue to accommodate the proposed businesses and accommodate all of the residential
in this building. Ms. Conolly stated that it is correct that approximately 400 surface
parking spaces will be removed in the area, however there are new parking garages being
built to further accommodate the Village’s parking requirement for residential which is
one and a half spaces per unit. She also stated that this requirement will probably be too
much for the demand that will be generated, so there may be some option to use that for
commercial.
Commissioner Mathee asked how many of the six floors of the Orange Garage will be
dedicated for just residential. Justin Pelej confirmed that the Orange Garage currently has
2,033 spaces and the residential as planned would use 638 of those.
Vic Howell stated that the bridges that connect to the residential buildings are on floors
three, four, and five, and six so the residential parking will be on sections of those floors.
Commissioner Mathee asked if it will be secured via card access on the dedicated floors
that will be separate from mall customers. Vic Howell confirmed that there will be
separation between public and private parking per floor of the parking garage.
Commissioner Scott Berman asked about what will be happening to Barnes & Noble and
Cheesecake Factory since the phases look like they will be eliminated. Stephen Fleur
verified that Westfield is working with businesses and has a plan for those that may need
to be relocated.
Commissioner Jeff Burman asked if the applicant could address the traffic issues relative
to Old Orchard Road and Lavergne in terms of increased traffic flow and volume.
Kelly Conolly stated that the traffic study was completed by Sam Schwartz and reviewed
by Village and County staff and contains needed items regarding traffic control,

pavement markings, and signage recommendations. Ms. Conolly stated that in general the
study concludes that residential is not a high traffic generator and it also helps that any
retail traffic created would be dispersed over the course of the day. She stated that there
will be approximately 300 additional trips in the morning and only generating about 100
additional trips on a Saturday in peak hours of the day, totaling about 5-6% increase for
the whole shopping center. Ms. Conolly stated that they were confident that is
manageable considering the updates to the circulation and geometric improvements in the
area.
Chairman Paul Luke asked if some of the residents could enter from the south end at Golf
and work their way through the shopping center to park. Kelly Conolly stated that they
anticipate that Lavergne will be a key route from the south due to the direct access.
Commissioner Shpayher asked if this development affects the high school in any way in
terms of traffic or construction. Kelly Conolly stated that the traffic study incorporates
the school session.
Justin Pelej made a point to clarify that the additional traffic counts that were mentioned
a moment ago were based on a Bloomingdale’s that is now closed. Mr. Pelej also stated
that Vic and himself met with both of the superintendents for the schools and had positive
meetings, concluding that there might be an additional 10-20 children coming from these
buildings and were not concerned about transportation.
Commissioner Mathee asked about the timelines for Phase I and Phase II. Justin Pelej
stated that 27 months would be the intent after approvals, working drawings for permits,
and financing. He stated that a reasonable assumption would be a construction start time
in the second or third quarter of next year. Mr. Pelej also stated that they would want to
execute Phase I and seeing and schedule Phase II since they are two different
construction projects.
Commissioner Mathee asked if they would finish Phase I before beginning Phase II.
Justin Pelej stated Phase I is the first project to focus on.
Mike Voitik, Planning Coordinator, requested that the staff reports be accepted as
written. Staff is supportive of the request based on conditions that include current site
plan approval, the repeal of outdated ordinances, and that the 5 items of relief from
previous approvals be carried over and maintained. Mr. Voitik explained that there is
sufficient parking to accommodate the updated uses. He also stated that the Appearance
Commission would be reviewing this case at the earliest date of August 28, 2024.
Mr. Voitik presented staff’s recommended conditions for the development.
Chairman Luke asked about the timeframe of the stoplight at Lavergne Avenue and the
west access to the development (Editor’s note: staff’s previous comment was mistakenly
stated as Lavergne Avenue instead of Lamon Avenue). Johanna Nyden stated that the
warrant analysis would be one year after the completion and occupancy of Phase II.

Mike Voitik stated that the ownership of the garage will be maintained and owned by the

Commissioner Scott Berman asked about new loading and unloading areas throughout
the new sections of the development and if they will be as out in the open as they
currently are.
Mike Voitik stated that multiple loading zones are shown on the site plan and developer
can show details on the project elevation documents.
Donna Pugh stated that her staff did not have any further questions or comments for staff.
Commissioner Scott Berman asked for clarification for the loading and unloading zones
within Phases I and II of the project.
Justin Pelej stated that there will be a combination of enclosed and open loading zones at
various locations throughout the development and that deliveries are scheduled and
controlled.
Commissioner Mathee asked if the loading and unloading zones include residential
move-ins and outs.
Justin Pelej stated that those movements will be scheduled as well.
(V) PUBLIC COMMENT
Kathy White, a resident at 5001 Golf Road, the first house southwest of Old Orchard. Ms.
White stated that she was pleased with the changes thus far, but had concerns regarding
drainage as there has been increased flooding in the area. Ms. White also had concerns
about the financials for the project as well as affordable housing, stating that this project
should maximize affordable housing within the development.
C. Stelic, a Skokie resident, who lives on Bronx Avenue on the other side of the
development and has concerns with the pedestrian safety and bicycle safety as some of
the roads are main throughways for kids to get to the high school. Ms. Stelic also shared
concerns about how to exit her neighborhood with the new traffic patterns and parking at
the nearby park where the pickleball courts are.
Sarah Gen, a business owner at Old Orchard, stated that she has concerns over where her
business will be relocated at the mall as her business is currently part of Phase I. Ms. Gen
stated that her business books far in advance and she has not been spoken to about the
future of her business.

Don Bell, a business owner at Old Orchard, asked if there was going to be any
improvements to the Professional Building or the rest of the mall. Mr. Bell also asked if
the 1% sales tax will be going away because his customers try to avoid paying it.
Gail Schecter, on behalf of Skokie Neighbors for Housing Justice, stated that she’s
pleased with the mixed-use project and thanked Mr. Fleur for meeting and listening to her
group. Ms. Schechter asked the developer to consider permanent affordability so those
units don’t expire as well as increasing the number of affordable units. Ms. Schechter
stated that during the developer’s presentation there was no mention of local workforce
and that the terms “young professionals” and “empty nesters” implies that families with
children are not permitted to live at the development.
Kimberly Polka, a Skokie resident, thanks the developers for including affordable
housing and sustainability into the project, but wishes there was more affordable housing.
Ms. Polka also shared concerns that residents don’t receive as much time to speak at
meetings as the developers.
Sue Lobach, Director of Advocacy at Connections for the Homeless, stated that she is
happy to see affordable housing included but would like to ask for more; going up to 5%.
Ms. Lobach also stated that she thinks that the largest employers in Skokie should be
stakeholders in affordable housing as well as they are the ones paying the wages and
could perhaps subsidize the rent for their workers in need, particularly the hospital
systems.
James Johnson, a Trustee for the Village of Skokie, asked the Plan Commission to push
Westfield on the issue of affordable housing. Mr. Johnson stated that as a Village
Trustee, he is going to be one of the officials receiving the Plan Commission’s
recommendations and would like the Commission and the Westfield representatives to
know that this redevelopment project will not have his support if Westfield is unwilling
to fully comply with the Village’s new Inclusionary Housing Ordinance.
Chairman Paul Luke asked Trustee Johnson to save his comments for the Board Meeting.
Trustee James Johnson stated that not allowing his comments will be a violation of the
Open Meetings Act and strongly advises against doing so.
Chairman Luke stated that he believes it is inappropriate.
Commissioner Scott Berman stated that in his opinion as a citizen, Trustee Johnson has
the right to speak separate from his position.
Commissioner Jeff Burman stated that Trustee Johnson is speaking as a Trustee, not a
citizen.

Commissioner Scott Berman referred to Tyler Kobylski, Assistant Corporate Counsel, for
a legal opinion because Trustee Johnson has a right to speak as a citizen who happens to
be a Trustee.
Chairman Luke stated that Trustee Johnson has already identified himself as a Trustee
and asked Trustee Johnson to reintroduce himself as a citizen.
James Johnson reintroduced himself and stated that the affordability requirements in the
Village’s Inclusionary Housing Policy are already low and, in his opinion, should be the
bare minimum that Westfield should be considering in terms of affordable housing. Mr.
Johnson continued stating that the Village has already done too much to assist Westfield
in this development by saying that Old Orchard mall is a “blighted” area even though it is
economically successful and has a higher sales tax.

PLAN COMMISSION REPORT 2024-22P: Special Use Permit
Plan Commission Council Chambers, 7:30 PM September 16th, 2024
To: Mayor and Board of Trustees
From: Paul Luke, Plan Commission Chairman
Case: 2024-22P: Special Use Permit
9410-A Skokie Boulevard
PLAN COMMISSION SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION
At its September 5th, 2024, meeting, the Plan Commission provided a positive
recommendation by a vote of 7 ayes and 0 nays, with 2 Commissioners absent, that the
petitioner’s request for a special use permit to operate a veterinary services business at
9410-A Skokie Boulevard, be approved, based upon the Proposed Positive Findings of
Fact and subject to the recommended special use conditions.
At the meeting, the Plan Commission heard the request of Core BNS Skokie, LLC, for a
special use permit to operate a veterinary service business at 9410-A Skokie Boulevard,
in a B2 Commercial zoning district. Scout Veterinary Care Illinois P.C., intends to
operate veterinary clinic with 6 examination rooms, a room for X-ray examinations, a
shared office space, a doctor’s office, and a larger treatment room with a pharmacy.
The proposed use is part of a larger 1-story 90,578 square foot multi-tenant shopping
center building that provides commercial and retail space for 17 businesses. A 349-
space surface parking lot provides parking for the entire shopping center. The proposed
use has a parking requirement of 1 space for every 300 square feet totaling for 11
required spaces for the veterinary services use.
PLAN COMMISSION ANALYSIS
The petitioners, Tripp Welge CEO of Scout Veterinary Care and Mathew Allee associate
at Akerman LLP, spoke before the Plan Commission and gave a presentation regarding
their business plan. Scout Veterinary Care expects to have 5-10 employees on any
given day and will be open 7 days a week for 10 hours a day. They have communicated
that staffing and customer demand will determine operating hours, but it is anticipated
that Scout Veterinary care will be open 7 days a week from 10 AM to 8 PM. Scout
Veterinary Care will not provide any overnight boarding services and will not be
performing any advanced surgeries on-site. Scout’s services only warrant patients to be
at the location from 15 to 90 minutes.
The Commissioners inquired about specific details regarding the day to day operations
of the business. Mr. Welge clarified that their veterinarians are required to have state
certification and typically the number of veterinarians on site is dependent on demand,
but there will be at least one on-site at all times. Due to the scope of work that is done
at Scout, Mr. Welge mentioned that they would build relationships with local animal
hospitals to provide additional medical attention for patients that Scout is unable to

provide. Additionally, Mr.Welge clarified that there will be no surgeries, no grooming, or
dental work done at Scout.
Commissioners asked Village staff if there have been any other veterinary service uses
in the Village located within plazas or shopping centers. Village staff mentioned the
more recent development at 5219 Touhy Avenue, that is similarly located within a plaza
that shares parking with multiple other businesses. The Commissioners are concerned
about the traffic circulation and parking. Staff is confident that the surface parking lot
provides sufficient parking for the use given its intensity and the number of off-street
parking spaces provided in the shopping center.
INTERESTED PARTIES
Legal notice was properly posted, advertised, and delivered to all property owners in
the area of the subject site as prescribed by the Zoning Chapter.
Michael Cieslik, a resident that lives adjacent to the shopping center voiced their
concerns about trash and property maintenance issues at the shopping center as a
result of the increase in activity.
Community Development Director Johanna Nyden also noted that the village would look
into this and issue property maintenance enforcements if necessary.
APPEARANCE COMMISSION
Appearance Commission review is not required.
PLAN COMMISSION VOTING
The Plan Commission recommends by a vote of 7 ayes and 0 nays, with 2
Commissioners absent, that the petitioner’s request for a special use permit to establish
a Veterinary Services business at 9410-A Skokie Boulevard, in a B2 Commercial zoning
district, be APPROVED, based upon the Proposed Positive Findings of Fact.

DRAFT/ NOT APPROVED
Matthew Allee, associate from Akerman LLP law firm, presented the case and
introduced Tripp Welge, CEO of Scout Veterinary Care Illinois.
They are proposing to open a veterinary services business in a commercial and
retail shopping center to treat dogs & cats exhibiting non-life-threatening
illnesses. Currently, they have locations in Lincoln Park and the West Loop and
are hoping to grow their business in Skokie.
Scout plans on operating 7 days a week from 10 AM to 8 PM seeing between 15
to 30 animal clients each day with 5-10 employees (certified technicians,
veterinary assistant, veterinarian, and front desk staff). A typical appointment will
last between 15-90 minutes. There will be no grooming, boarding, or surgeries.
Chairman Luke inquired about how many veterinarians will be on-site. Mr. Welge
stated that a state certified veterinarian will be there at all times but if needed,
staffing will match the demand.
Commissioner Gevaryahu asked about their policy if more services are needed
beyond their scope. Mr. Welge stated that they plan on building relationships with

Public Comment
Michael Cieslik, resident at 9350 Skokie Boulevard, commented that the
shopping mall is in need of better trash management and is concerned with
animal waste especially since a restaurant is nearby. Chairman Luke stated that
there are veterinary businesses all over Skokie and there hasn’t been any
concerns or problems. They are licensed facilities subject to inspections. They
must use proper procedures to control the waste materials. Maintenance issues
are the responsibility of the property owner and not the applicant. If there is a
problem with the mall, call the Village.
