Page 2 of 128 IV. Public Hearing - New Business a. ZBA-26-09 – 31 W. Saint Charles Rd-Special Use Petitioner: Cat Guardians Rachel Leedom presented • Special Use permit would allow the space to function as an animal shelter. • This property is roughly 2,000 sq ft and would allow for space to house rescued cats, host outreach events, and educational events. • The building would be primarily used to house cats in care, but would also have space for organization administration, a public space to welcome people coming in to look at adoptable cats, storage, laundry, and an exam room. • The goal is to make the public spaces flexible so that they can be converted to spaces that can hold events and raise money for the organization. • The business currently operates by appointment only and would retain that initially. • They will also have regular events, once every month or two, which will allow drop-in access if people want to see the cats without an appointment. • Cat Guardians is run entirely by volunteers. There are two volunteer cat care shifts a day, which consist of approximately 2-4 volunteers on each shift, who feed the cats, clean litter boxes, sweep, etc. • Minimal interior remodeling is planned and would be reviewed in the building permit process. • Nine Parking stalls will be on site. Two parking stalls are all that is needed. Beth Gowski explained the mission of Cat Guardians. Judy Pappendorf Vice President of Cat Guardians Fire department submitted that they would either need to have 24-hour on-site staff or Automated fire system that notifies responders. Beth Gowski responded that the building already is wired for the fire system and they will pay for the service. Jason Jarrett wanted to know how pet waste will be handled. Beth Gowski stated that they take it out after each shift to the dumpster. V. Public Comments Non-Agenda Items Ron Riley- spoke in favor of Cat Guardians Joan Spania - spoke in favor of Cat Guardians Elizabeth Reichert – spoke on favor of Cat Guardians Christine Murphy-spoke in support of Cat Guardians VI. Commissioner Comments Jason Jarrett had a concern about the dumpster at the rear of the property and how it goes into the Public Right-of Way. Rachel Leedom stated that it could be taken care of by code enforcement but can be looked at when they apply for a permit. Page 3 of 128 Greg Ludwig addressed the trash from the former tenant. He said it has not been an issue. He is more than happy to do whatever needs to be done to comply. Brian Igawski spoke, he said the most cost-effective way to deal with this would be to paint an area and staff could make sure the dumpster goes in that area. Jason Jarrett would like the applicant and staff to work together for a solution before the Village Board votes on it. Motion was made to recommend approval of ZBA-26-09 for a Special Use to permit a boarding or animal shelter use within the existing building was made by Commissioner Clampit. Seconded by Commissioner Ackermann. AYES: Ackermann, Clampit, Jarrett, Chairperson Pate (4) NAYS: None (0) ABSTAIN: Cain (1) Motion carried Non-Agenda Items Rachel Leedom stated that if anyone was at the meeting for the Islamic Foundation, we spoke with our attorney, and it does not need to go in front of this board.

Villa Ave. | Variation PETITIONER OWNER Lynette Ball Lynette Ball 405 S. Villa Ave. 405 S. Villa Ave. Villa Park, IL, 60181 Villa Park, IL, 60181 Request Summary The Petitioner is seeking a Variation from Section 9.2.2- Allowed Fence Heights and Locations to permit a solid fence with a height of 6 feet in the front yard, where a 4-foot-tall open style fence would be permitted. The subject property is located on a corner lot. Background The petitioner is seeking a variation to replace the existing 6-foot-tall wooden fence with a 6-foot-tall vinyl privacy fence that is also 100% opaque. The variation request would permit a 6-foot-tall, solid fence in the front yard where a 4-foot tall, open style fence would be permitted by right. This house is located on a corner lot. The house faces Villa Ave., but the property line adjacent to Highland Ave. is considered the front yard because it is the smallest street facing property line. The area that the petitioner wants to fence in functions as her rear/side yard. This fence height does not conflict with any visibility requirements. Site Information Present Zoning: Residential Single-Dwelling District - RS-7.5 Present Land Use: Residential Property Size: 15,050 sq. ft. / 0.34 acres PIN: 06-10-400-001 Surrounding Zoning Surrounding Land Use North: Residential Single-Dwelling District- RS-7.5 Residential West: Residential Single-Dwelling District- RS-7.5 Residential East: Residential Single-Dwelling District- RS-7.5 Residential South: Residential Single-Dwelling District- RS-7.5 Residential Comprehensive Plan Designation - Residential Single-dwelling residential areas are neighborhoods where each lot contains one dwelling unit, which can be a standalone house or attached units like townhomes and duplexes. These areas should encompass carefully planned subdivisions and older, established neighborhoods exhibiting classic neighborhood layouts. Single- dwelling homes are the most common form of residential property in the Village and most likely will remain so. Zoning Request The Petitioner is seeking a Variation from Section 9.2.2 - Allowed Fence Heights and Locations to permit a solid fence with a height of 6 feet in the front yard, where a 4-foot-tall open style fence would be permitted. Page 6 of 128 Internal Staff Review Variation The Zoning Ordinance specifically allows for Variation petitions to grant relief to a property owner from strict compliance with the regulations of the Zoning Ordinance. Variations are intended to help alleviate a practical difficulty or particular hardship that would be caused by the literal enforcement of the subject ordinance requirements and are site specific. The petitioner is looking to replace their existing 6-foot-tall wooden fence with a 6-foot-tall vinyl privacy fence. The variation request would permit a 6-foot-tall, solid fence in the front yard where a 4-foot-tall, open style fence would be permitted by right. This variation request came about when the applicant applied for a fence permit and the need for a variation was noticed during the zoning review for permits. The subject property is a corner lot. The single-family home faces Villa Ave., but the property line adjacent to Highland Ave. is considered the front lot line as it is the smallest street facing property line. Upon visiting the site, staff observed that the area along Highland Ave. where the fence would be located has many trees and plantings and does not function as a front yard. The area that the petitioner wants to fence in functions as their rear and side yard. The proposed fence height does not conflict with any visibility requirements as it is 44 feet from the intersection of Villa Ave. and Highland Ave. and is approximately 50 feet from the driveway serving the adjoining property. Site Plan – Proposed Fence as Permitted (CYAN) Proposed Fence requiring height and transparency waiver (ORANGE) 2 Page 7 of 128 Site Plan Review The following comments summarize aspects of the proposed development plans in relation to various Zoning Ordinance requirements: 1. Building and Structure Location: a. This home is located on a corner lot, facing Villa Ave. The frontage on Highland Ave is considered the front because it is the smallest street facing frontage. The area that is considered the petitioner’s front yard functions as her rear/side yard. b. The fence is in compliance with all other bulk regulations. 2. Building Scale: a. Section 9.2.2 permits a 4-foot-tall open style fence in the front yard. The petitioner is requesting a 6-foot-tall solid fence. b. The petitioner has an existing 6-foot-tall solid fence. 3. Lot Coverage: a. No new lot coverage would be added as a result of this project. 4. Completeness: If the Zoning Board of Appeals requires additional information to determine whether the applicant’s development requests comply with the applicable standards of the Code, they may direct the Petitioner to furnish additional information and evidence that may provide clarity regarding their concerns. Findings Per Sec. 11.5.6.8, the Zoning Board of Appeals’ recommendation must be accompanied by specific findings of fact regarding whether practical difficulties or particular hardships would result if a Variation is not granted. The Petitioner has submitted the following justification for a Variation from Article 2, Section 2.3, Table 2-3 of the Zoning Ordinance: A. State the particular hardship and/or practical difficulty created for you in carrying out the strict letter of the zoning regulations to wit: Petitioner: We live on a corner lot and have a small/no backyard. This area is considered our back yard. B. A reasonable return or use of your property is not possible under the existing regulations because: Petitioner: No privacy, live on corner. There is a bus stop with people in our front yard all the time. Sound is loud with cars. C. Your situation is unique (not applicable in other properties in the area or zoning classification) in the following respect: Petitioner: We already have a 6 foot fence, just want to replace what is there. Backyard is small and the side yard is where we use it. The corner is not block frontage. There is a bus stop, so it is a busy corner with no privacy. D. The variation will not alter the essential character of the locality, impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property; not increase hazard from fire; not impair property values in the neighborhood; not unduly increase congestion in the streets, or otherwise impair public safety; health and convenience because: Petitioner: No, it will not harm anyone. 3 Page 8 of 128 Notification Legal Notice was published in the Daily Herald on May 28, 2026, a sign placed on the subject property, and notifications sent to property owners within a 250.0-foot radius of the subject property in advance of the Public Hearing.

Page 11 of 128 Village of Villa Park Community & Economic Development 11 W Home Avenue, Villa Park, IL 60181 TO: Zoning Board of Appeals FROM: Community & Economic Development Department DATE: June 10, 2026 RE: Petition ZBA-26-08 | 19 W. Jackson St. | Variation PETITIONER OWNER Rob and Aurora Scahill Rob and Aurora Scahill 19 W. Jackson St. 19 W. Jackson St. Villa Park, IL, 60181 Villa Park, IL, 60181 Request Summary The Petitioner is seeking a Variation from Section 6.10.2 - Residential Accessory Structures, Table 6-2 Accessory Structure Regulations, to permit a pergola with a maximum size of 250 square feet where 200 square feet is permitted by right. Background This case came about as the result of a Work Without a Permit Violation issued March 5, 2026. The petitioner applied for a building permit on March 14, 2026. It was noted during permit review that the pergola exceeds the maximum of 200 sq. ft. permitted. The petitioner would like to keep the full size of the pergola, because it currently covers the entire rear of the residence, including two sliding doors. The pergola is 13 feet by 19 feet for a total area of 247 square feet. The pergola is approximately 8.0 feet tall, which is in compliance with bulk regulations. The pergola complies with setback requirements. Site Information Present Zoning: Residential Single-Dwelling District - RS-7.5 Present Land Use: Residential Property Size: 7,250 sq. ft. / 0.16 acres PIN: 06-16-215-006 Surrounding Zoning Surrounding Land Use North: Residential Single-Dwelling District- RS-7.5 Residential West: Residential Single-Dwelling District- RS-7.5 Residential East: Residential Single-Dwelling District- RS-7.5 Residential South: Residential Single-Dwelling District- RS-7.5 Park Comprehensive Plan Designation - Residential Single-dwelling residential areas are neighborhoods where each lot contains one dwelling unit, which can be a standalone house or attached units like townhomes and duplexes. These areas should encompass carefully planned subdivisions and older, established neighborhoods exhibiting classic neighborhood layouts. Single- dwelling homes are the most common form of residential property in the Village and most likely will remain so. Zoning Request The Petitioner is seeking a Variation from Section 6.10.2 - Residential Accessory Structures, Table 6-2 Accessory Structure Regulations, to permit a pergola with a maximum size of 250 square feet where 200 square feet is permitted by right. Page 12 of 128 Internal Staff Review Variation The Zoning Ordinance specifically allows for Variation petitions to grant relief to a property owner from strict compliance with the regulations of the Zoning Ordinance. Variations are intended to help alleviate a practical difficulty or particular hardship that would be caused by the literal enforcement of the subject ordinance requirements and are site specific. The petitioner is seeking to install a pergola across the rear of the residence on top of an existing patio. The petitioner received a violation notice for work without a permit on March 5, 2026. The petitioner came to apply for a permit a week later. The pergola is 13 feet by 19 feet for a total area of 247 square feet. The reason for this size is to cover the entire rear of the house on top of an existing patio and provide a covered entrance and exit from two sliding patio doors on the rear of the house. Section 6.10.2 - Residential Accessory structures permits a pergola with a maximum area of 200 square feet. No variations to height or setbacks are needed as part of this application. Site Plan Review The following comments summarize aspects of the proposed development plans in relation to various Zoning Ordinance requirements: 1. Building and Structure Location: a. The pergola has a length of 19 feet and a depth of 13 feet. The pergola has a total area of 247 sq. ft. and exceeds the maximum area permitted by 47 sq. ft. b. The pergola is in compliance with all other bulk regulations. 2. Building scale: a. Section 6.10.2 - Residential Accessory structures permits a pergola with a maximum area of 200 sq. ft. The petitioner is requesting a 247-square-foot pergola. 3. Lot Coverage: a. No new lot coverage would be added as a result of this project. The pergola is placed on an existing patio. 4. Completeness - If the Zoning Board of Appeals requires additional information to determine whether the applicant’s development requests comply with the applicable standards of the Code, they may direct the Petitioner to furnish additional information and evidence that may provide clarity regarding their concerns. Findings Per Section 11.5.6.8, the Zoning Board of Appeals’ recommendation must be accompanied by specific findings of fact regarding whether practical difficulties or particular hardships would result if a Variation is not granted. The Petitioner has submitted the following justification for a Variation from Article 2, Section 2.3, Table 2-3 of the Zoning Ordinance: A. State the particular hardship and/or practical difficulty created for you in carrying out the strict letter of the zoning regulations to wit: Petitioner: The practical difficulty is created by the layout of the home, which includes two rear sliding doors that require continuous covered access across the full width of the patio. A pergola limited to 200 square feet would not adequately span both door openings, resulting in incomplete coverage and limiting safe and functional use of the space. The requested size of 13 feet by 19 feet represents the minimum necessary to provide consistent coverage across both entry points and allow the structure to function as intended. 2 Page 13 of 128 B. A reasonable return or use of your property is not possible under the existing regulations because: Petitioner: Under the current 200 square foot limitation, the pergola cannot reasonably fulfill its intended purpose of providing continuous covered access across both rear sliding doors. A smaller structure would only partially cover the patio, reducing usability and creating an impractical layout. The requested variation allows for a functional outdoor space consistent with normal residential use, including family use, shade, and safe entry and exit from the home. C. Your situation is unique (not applicable in other properties in the area or zoning classification) in the following respect: Petitioner: The unique condition of this property is the configuration of the rear elevation of the home, which includes two separate sliding door access points that require a wider structure to provide adequate coverage. This condition is specific to the layout of the home and is not a general condition applicable to all properties in the area. The pergola must span a greater width than a standard single-entry layout, making the 200 square foot limitation insufficient in this case. D. The variation will not alter the essential character of the locality, impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property; not increase hazard from fire; not impair property values in the neighborhood; not unduly increase congestion in the streets, or otherwise impair public safety; health and convenience because: Petitioner: The requested variation will not alter the essential character of the neighborhood or negatively impact surrounding properties. The pergola is an open-air structure with an adjustable slatted roof and does not create enclosed space or increase density. It is approximately 7 feet in height and is located with appropriate setbacks, including approximately 7 feet from one side property line, over 20 feet from the opposite side, and more than 15 feet from the rear property line. The structure does not obstruct views, light, or air to adjacent properties and does not create any additional traffic, noise, or safety concerns. Similar outdoor structures, including decks, exist on neighboring properties, and the pergola is consistent with the residential character of the area. The design complements the home’s exterior and contributes positively to the overall appearance and value of the property. Notification Legal Notice was published in the Daily Herald on May 28, 2026, a sign placed on the subject property, and notifications sent to property owners within a 250.0-foot radius of the subject property in advance of the Public Hearing. Sample Motion Should the Board approve Case ZBA 26-08, staff recommends the following motion and conditions: Motion to approve Case ZBA 26-08, a request for variations from Section 6.10.2- Residential Accessory Structures, Table 6-2 Accessory Structure Regulations to permit a pergola with a maximum size of 250 square feet, subject to the following conditions: 1) The proposed pergola shall be installed in accordance with the plans submitted by the applicant in the Variation Application received 3/31/2026. 2) The applicant shall file all necessary plans and applications, for review and approval, and secure all necessary building permits prior to the commencement of installation.

Pergola Page 92 of 128 Page 93 of 128 Village of Villa Park Community & Economic Development 11 W Home Avenue, Villa Park, IL 60181 TO: Zoning Board of Appeals FROM: Community & Economic Development Department DATE: June 10, 2026 RE: Petition ZBA-26-13 | 1031 S Summit Ave | Variation PETITIONER OWNER Kurt Berry and Jacqui Francis Kurt Berry and Jacqui Francis 1031 S. Summit Ave. 1031 S. Summit Ave. Villa Park, IL, 60181 Villa Park, IL, 60181 Request Summary The Petitioner is seeking a Variation from Section 14.1.9 - Setbacks to permit a patio in the front yard. This double frontage lot has two front yards and the patio would be placed behind the rear of the residence. Background The petitioners are seeking a variation to build a concrete patio in the space that functions as their rear yard. Because the property abuts Terry Lane, the area that functions as their rear yard, is considered a front yard per zoning code. If this patio were located in a rear yard on a typical lot, no variation would be required. This area is surrounded by a privacy fence. A wooden deck was previously in this location but was removed due to disrepair. The proposed patio is 16 feet by 26 feet for a total area of 416 square feet. The patio is setback 41 feet from the secondary frontage, Terry Lane. The patio is setback 8.75 feet from the north property line and 25.3 feet from the south property line. Site Information Present Zoning: Residential Single-Dwelling District - RS-7.5 Present Land Use: Residential Property Size: 8,354.44 sq. ft. / 0.19 acres PIN: 06-15-114-012 Surrounding Zoning Surrounding Land Use North: Residential Single-Dwelling District- RS-7.5 Residential West: Residential Single-Dwelling District- RS-7.5 Residential East: Residential Single-Dwelling District- RS-7.5 Residential South: Residential Single-Dwelling District- RS-7.5 Residential Comprehensive Plan Designation - Residential Single-dwelling residential areas are neighborhoods where each lot contains one dwelling unit, which can be a standalone house or attached units like townhomes and duplexes. These areas should encompass carefully planned subdivisions and older, established neighborhoods exhibiting classic neighborhood layouts. Single- dwelling homes are the most common form of residential property in the Village and most likely will remain so. Zoning Request The Petitioner is seeking a Variation from Section 14.1.9 - Setbacks to permit a patio in the front yard. This double frontage lot has two front yards and the patio would be placed behind the rear of the residence. Page 94 of 128 Site Plan – Proposed Patio (CYAN) Terry Ln. Front Yard (GREEN) 2 Page 95 of 128 Internal Staff Review Variation The Zoning Ordinance specifically allows for Variation petitions to grant relief to a property owner from strict compliance with the regulations of the Zoning Ordinance. Variations are intended to help alleviate a practical difficulty or particular hardship that would be caused by the literal enforcement of the subject ordinance requirements and are site specific. The petitioners are seeking a variation to build a concrete patio in the space that functions as their rear yard. The proposed patio is 16 feet by 26 feet for a total area of 416 square feet. The proposed patio is setback 41 feet from the secondary frontage, Terry Lane. The proposed patio is setback 8.75 feet from the north property line and 25.3 feet from the south property line. If this patio were located in a rear yard on a typical lot, no variation would be required. This area functions as the rear yard for the residence and is surrounded by a privacy fence. A wooden deck used to be in this location, but was removed because it was in disrepair. Site Plan Review 1. Building and Structure Location: a. The proposed patio is 16 feet by 26 feet for a total area of 416 square feet. b. Setbacks are in compliance with section 14.1.9- Setbacks i. North setback: 8.75 feet ii. East setback: 41 feet iii. South setback: 25.3 feet 2. Building scale: a. The proposed patio is 16 feet by 26 feet for a total area of 416 square feet. b. Per Section 6.10.2- Residential Accessory Structures, there is no maximum size for a patio. 3. Lot Coverage: a. The current lot coverage is 38%. After the patio installation, the lot coverage would be 43%. b. Per section 2.3- Lot and Building Regulations, maximum lot coverage for RS-7.5 is 60%. 4. Completeness - If the Zoning Board of Appeals requires additional information to determine whether the applicant’s development requests comply with the applicable standards of the Code, they may direct the Petitioner to furnish additional information and evidence that may provide clarity regarding their concerns. Findings Per Sec. 11.5.6.8. The Zoning Board of Appeals’ recommendation must be accompanied by specific findings of fact regarding whether practical difficulties or particular hardships would result if a Variation is not granted. The Petitioner has submitted the following justification for a Variation from Article 2, Section 2.3, Table 2-3 of the Zoning Ordinance: A. State the particular hardship and/or practical difficulty created for you in carrying out the strict letter of the zoning regulations to wit: Petitioner: Our lot is located on a pre-shaped parcel between Summit and Terry at the narrowing end. There is no neighboring house behind ours (Terry) and thus it is considered we have 2 front yards. B. A reasonable return or use of your property is not possible under the existing regulations because: Petitioner: A concrete patio is not allowed by zoning in front yard, which is our back yard and already surrounded by privacy fencing. 3 Page 96 of 128 C. Your situation is unique (not applicable in other properties in the area or zoning classification) in the following respect: Petitioner: We’d like to use our yard for BBQ and entertaining that a concrete patio would allow. D. The variation will not alter the essential character of the locality, impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property; not increase hazard from fire; not impair property values in the neighborhood; not unduly increase congestion in the streets, or otherwise impair public safety; health and convenience because: Petitioner: It is ground level so no light or air disruption. Less fire hazard than the old wood deck. Updates to the home will improve values, cause no traffic issues or safety issues. Neighboring home already has a similar concrete patio without incident. Notification Legal Notice was published in the Daily Herald on May 28, 2026, a sign placed on the subject property, and notifications sent to property owners within a 250.0-foot radius of the subject property in advance of the Public Hearing. Sample Motion Should the Board approve Case ZBA 26-13, staff recommends the following motion and conditions: Motion to approve Case ZBA 26-13, a request for variations from Section 14.1.9- Setbacks to permit a patio in the front yard, subject to the following conditions: 1) The proposed patio shall be installed in accordance with the plans submitted by the applicant in the Variation Application received 3/31/2026. 2) The applicant shall file all necessary plans and applications, for review and approval, and secure all necessary building permits prior to the commencement of installation.

Park Blvd. 5 W. Park Blvd. Villa Park, IL, 60181 Villa Park, IL, 60181 Request Summary The Petitioner is seeking a Special Use permit for a Planned Unit Development and other relief from the Village of Villa Park Village Code as may be required for this project. The project is an addition to the existing building to accommodate new restaurant space. Background The petitioner requests a Special Use permit for a Planned Unit Development to construct an addition to the existing building at 5 W. Park Blvd. The petitioner intends to use the space for restaurant and bar use. The project includes a commercial kitchen, restaurant space, lounge space, and a walk-up window for pedestrians picking up food. The existing hair salon and residential space would remain. The site would include a trash enclosure, three (3) on-site parking stalls, and 11 on-street parking stalls (including approximately eight (8) newly constructed parking stalls). Site Information Present Zoning: MX-2- Mixed-Use Main Street District Present Land Use: Commercial Property Size: 6,892 sq. ft. or 0.1582 acres PIN: 06-09-220-006 Surrounding Zoning Surrounding Land Use North: Mixed-Use Main Street District – MX-2 Commercial West: Mixed-Use Main Street District – MX-2 Commercial East: Mixed-Use Main Street District – MX-2 Commercial South: Mixed-Use Main Street District – MX-2 Commercial Comprehensive Plan Designation – Local Commercial Local commercial areas are designed to provide small-scale retail and services catering to nearby residents’ day- to-day needs. These areas typically include a grocery store or restaurant and other smaller retailers, such as gas stations, dry cleaners, convenience stores, and banks. The Village should look to provide these daily necessities and services close to home as an amenity for nearby residents and to reduces the need to drive. Page 102 of 128 Zoning Request The petitioner is requesting approval of a planned unit development (PUD) designated as a “special use” administered under Section 11.3 Planned Unit Development. The project is an addition to an existing building to accommodate new restaurant space. Several variations from the underlying zoning requirements are being sought by the petitioner as part of the PUD. Internal Staff Review Planned Unit Development The petitioner requests a special use permit for a Planned Unit Development to renovate the ground floor of the existing building at 5 W. Park Blvd and construct a single-story addition in the current parking lot at the subject property. The petitioner intends to use the renovated and expanded space for a restaurant and bar. The project includes a commercial kitchen, restaurant space, lounge space, and a walk-up window for pedestrians picking up food. The existing hair salon on the ground floor and two residential dwellings on the upper floor of the existing building would remain. The petitioner also proposes improvements to the Village right-of-way to add additional on-street parking. The proposal would maintain the existing 100% impervious cover on the site with no landscaping proposed. Staff has concerns regarding landscaping and building materials that should be addressed by the applicant. Site Plan Review The following comments summarize aspects of the proposed development plans in relation to various Zoning Ordinance requirements: 1. Building Location and Scale: The proposal includes a one-story addition of 2,595 square feet and remodeling of the first floor of the existing building. The proposed building addition would be roughly 73 feet by 43 feet with a building height of 24 feet. A commercial business (a salon) located in the rear of the ground floor of the existing building at the subject property, as well as two (2) residential units located on the upper floor, would remain. Per Section 4.6.2, parapet walls may be a maximum of six feet (6 ft.) in height. The proposed single -story addition features a 12.3 ft. Ground floor with a parapet wall measuring 11.7 ft. in height. A waiver of 5.7 ft. is required to permit the proposed parapet wall height. Proposed North Elevation – Parapet wall outlines in ORANGE 2. Building Materials: The petitioner is proposing the use of engineered architectural panels as the primary facade material. Per discussion with the architect, cast stone would also be used at the base of the building. The architectural panels come in a wide variety of colors. 2 Page 103 of 128 Per section 4.7.1, 80% of each façade shall be constructed of primary materials. Permitted primary building materials include high quality, durable, natural materials, such as stone, brick; wood lap siding; fiber cement board lapped, shingled, or panel siding; glass. Other high quality synthetic materials may be approved during the site plan process with an approved sample and examples of successful, high quality local installations. While architectural panels are commonly used as accent materials, Staff has concerns regarding the use such panels as a primary material. Details regarding proposed building materials were received the week prior to the June 10, 2026 public hearing. As the only significant outstanding item, Staff agreed to process the application and keep the case on the June 10, 2026 agenda. Staff requested material samples and examples of where the proposed engineered architectural panels have been used for smaller-scale projects within the Chicago region. The project architect provided several examples and those have been included with the application materials . Staff continue have concerns regarding the use of the architectural panels as a primary façade material given that all but one of the examples shared appear to have been institutional buildings. The petitioner should speak to the proposed primary materials choice and examples from elsewhere in the region. Per section 4.7.1, main building colors shall utilize any historic palettes from any major paint manufacturer. Other colors may be utilized for details and accents, not to exceed a total area larger than ten (10) percent of the facade surface area. The petitioner did not provide an indication as to which colors are proposed and Staff was unable to determine with compliance as a result. Staff recommends that compliance with building color requirements be included as a condition of approval. Proposed Primary Façade Material – Engineered Architectural Panels(Examples provided by Architect) Proposed Accent Material – Cast Stone 3 Page 104 of 128 3. Façade Transparency The proposed project is meets minimum façade transparency requirements along the Ardmore Avenue (primary street) frontage, however additional transparency is required along Park Blvd. While the front of the proposed restaurant and bar are highly transparent, the applicant has indicated that additional windows along the back of the building are not desired due to the location of the kitchen and storage in this area. The applicant should be prepared to speak to the need for less transparency due to the existing site constraints and kitchen needs. Staff feels these requests are reasonable given the circumstances. a. North: 70% transparency is required. The petitioner proposes 64% transparency on the North façade (Ardmore Ave.). A waiver of 6% is requested. b. East: 70% transparency is required. The petitioner proposes 80% transparency on the East façade (Park Blvd.). c. West: 15% transparency is required for the open space frontage. The petitioner proposes 0% transparency on the West façade (abutting parking) due to kitchen restraints. A waiver of 15% is requested. d. Per section 4.5.5.B - Blank Wall Segments, no more than 30% of any story shall be without transparency. The petitioner proposes 67% without transparency due to kitchen restraints. A waiver of 37% is requested. 4. Lot Coverage The site currently is 100% impervious surface. Although the requirement for Zoning District MX -2 is a maximum of 75% impervious coverage, the petitioner requests to maintain the 100% cover. Staff has identified areas for possible landscaping but applicant has declined. Staff feels while adding an additional 25% of landscaping to the site may not be reasonable given the site constraints, there are opportunities to include some type of landscaping and 100% impervious surface is not necessary. a. Per section 4.4.2- Storefront Building, the maximum impervious cover for the MX-2 District is 75% b. The lot is currently 100% impervious surface and is proposed to remain at 100% lot coverage. Petitioner request a waiver of 25%. 5. Site Circulation The three (3) on-site parking stalls would be accessible from Park Blvd. All other parking and vehicular traffic would remain on Ardmore Ave and Park Blvd. a. With the new building addition and reconfiguration of the parking lot, the existing garage space serving the existing salon business can no longer be served directly by a delivery vehicle. As a condition of approval, Staff recommends that vehicles be prohibited from driving across the designated pedestrian way along the north façade of the existing building and that deliveries to the space must be made from the parking lot. 4 Page 105 of 128 Existing Garage and man door serving Existing Salon Business to Remain 6. Parking The proposed project includes a total of fourteen (14) parking stalls. Three (3) parking stalls are on the subject property, including one ADA accessible parking stall. Eleven (11) parking stalls are provided on Ardmore Ave. and Park Blvd. For the new restaurant, two residential apartments, and a commercial space, twenty (20) parking stalls would be required. a. The site proposes 14 parking stalls, 3 on-site parking stalls and 11 on-street parking stalls. Per section 7.2 Minimum Parking Ratios, 20 stalls are required. The petitioner is requesting a waiver of six parking stalls (a 30% reduction). i. Residential: 2 one-bedroom apartments, 2 parking stalls required ii. Commercial: 3 stalls per 1,000 square feet, 1 stall required iii. Restaurant: 0.33 per seat, 17 stalls required b. Section 7.4.1- On-Street Parking, allows for non-residential uses to count on-street parking towards the number of required parking stalls at a rate of 1 stall per 20 feet of abutting right of way. 7. Landscaping No landscaping is proposed as part of the Special Use application. a. Staff has noted areas where landscaping or planters could be added, but petitioner has declined these suggestions. Per Section 9.1.5.C, when a new development abuts non-residential properties, a landscaped buffer is required. While staff believe the landscape buffer is not practicable given site constraints and the scale and character of adjacent development. No landscaping is proposed as part of the Special Use application. b. Section 4.3.4 states that open space that is not used for sidewalk or patio space, shall contain landscaping. Staff has suggested two areas where landscaping could be installed. Staff has also suggested planter boxes be installed to include some type of vegetation. The petitioner has declined these suggestions and should speak to their decision to omit landscaping. 5 Page 106 of 128 8. Lighting The petitioner is proposing recessed lighting at the entrances to the building. Per comments from the petitioner, the lighting fixtures will include shielding to direct light away from adjacent right-of-way and minimize glare. Parking lot lighting is not required because the proposed parking lot has fewer than six (6) stalls. As there is no required site lighting, Staff waived the requirement for a photometric analysis. Staff has concerns regarding the potential for low light levels in the parking lot in the evening when the restaurant and bar will be active (compared to the salon at the subject property). In response to these comments, the petitioner indicated a willingness to install lighting in the parking area and that has been included as a condition of approval. The petitioner has agreed to provide a photometric plan as part of the permitting process if requested by Staff. Proposed Soffit Lighting 9. Signage The petitioner proposes two new wall signs and one projecting sign as part of this project. Proposed signage complies with Article 8 regulations. One existing wall sign for the commercial space shall remain. The petitioner is proposing 180 square feet of signage within six (6) wall signs. Per Section 8.6.3 - Wall Signs, 180 square feet of wall signage is permitted. 180 square feet of signage is proposed. 10. Completeness If the Zoning Board of Appeals requires additional information to determine whether the applicant’s development requests comply with the applicable standards of the Zoning Ordinance, they may direct the applicant to furnish additional information and evidence that may provide clarity regarding their concerns. The case may also be continued if the board determines that it lacks complete information needed to make an informed recommendation. 11. Findings Per Section 11.4.8. – Review and Approval Criteria: No Special Use may be recommended for approval or approved unless the respective review or decision-making body determines that the proposed Special Use is consistent with and in substantial compliance with all village board policies and plans and that the applicant has presented evidence to support each of the following conclusions for both Special Uses that they are requesting: a. That the proposed use or activity is expressly authorized as a Special Use; Petitioner’s Response: The activity is expressly authorized as special use. b. That the proposed use at the proposed location is necessary or desirable to provide a service or a facility that is in the interest of public convenience and will contribute to the general welfare of the neighborhood or community; Petitioner’s Response: This activity is in the interest of public use and convenience. 6 Page 107 of 128 c. That the proposed use will not, in the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity or be injurious to property values or improvements in the vicinity. Petitioner’s Response: The use will not be detrimental to health. d. That approval of the Special Use will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of surrounding property for uses permitted in the district; Petitioner’s Response: The special use will not impede development of surrounding properties. e. That the proposed Special Use will be served by adequate utilities, access roads, parking, drainage and other important and necessary facilities, infrastructure, and community services; and Petitioner’s Response: Usage will be supported by adequate utilities and infrastructure. f. That the proposed Special Use complies with all applicable regulations of this zoning ordinance except as expressly approved in accordance with the procedures of this zoning ordinance.
