4. Final Plat: PQ Corp./Anchor Glass

The following were in attendance to represent the petition: Mr. David Reifman, attorney with Rudnick & Wolfe; Mr. Michael Allen, Director of Corporate Engineering with PQ Corporation; and Mr. Lawrence McGrenera, Regional Manager with PQ Corporation.

It was explained that this site is located on the east side of Delany Road, south of Ryan Road. The proposal is to subdivide the existing Anchor Glass facility into two lots, via a common party wall. This subdivision would result in the manufacturing portion of the building being on lot one and the warehousing portion being on lot two.

Anchor Glass is proposing to sell their manufacturing facility to PQ Corp., which produces glass beads and silica gels. Anchor will retain ownership and use of the warehousing facility.

Ms. Einspanjer stated that Anchor Glass and PQ Corp. has received a favorable recommendation from the Zoning Board of Appeals regarding the necessary variances to the rear and side yard setbacks. However, the variance still needs to be approved by the Village Board.

Mr. Cepon moved, seconded by Mr. Smith, to forward a favorable recommendation to the Village Board on the final plat of PQ Corp., and Anchor Glass, subject to Village Board approval for the variance, and final engineering approval.

Roll Call Vote:

Nays: None

Motion Carried 6-0

5. Final Plat: Woodside Park

Mr. Dan Riedel, developer, and Mr. Glen Christensen, land planner, were in attendance.

Ms. Einspanjer informed the Commission that this subdivision consists of 40 single family lots, located on 24.32 acres west of Hunt Club Road, south of Foxworth Lane (north of the Park District property). The site is zoned R-2 PUD.

The landscape plan, site plan, and road design are consistent with what was proposed at Preliminary PUD Plat stage. Sidewalk will be located on both sides of the street.

Amenities will include:

ï An entry island from Stonebrook;

ï Two courtyards for a ìVillage Greenî effect;

ï Gazebo and fencing; and

ï Lots that front either open space, park property, water, or common areas.

The wetlands and woods will be protected. Other than the right-of-ways, the site will not be mass graded. Many existing trees will be transplanted on the site and street trees will be installed at 1 per 40 feet.

Restrictions for the lots that include storm water detention areas will include:

ï Restrictions noted on the plat of survey given at marketing and time of purchase. This will show square footage of the buildable area and the easement areas (either detention or conservation);

ï Covenants and restrictions, which will be previewed prior to purchasing the lot and exhibited in the model homes;

ï Bollards to be installed where the lots abut the storm water detention areas; and

ï Signs installed on the bollards depicting conservation areas.

The homes will range in price from $300-400,000. They all will have concrete driveways and the square footage will run from 2600-2800 for a two-story and 2400-2600 for a ranch. The homes are to be similar to those in Bittersweet Woods and The Woods of Stonebrook.

In response to Mr. Robison, Mr. Christensen stated that there will be turf up to the normal water line of the wetlands, and the bollards will be installed where the lot line crosses the easement at the high water line. In addition, the ponds will be wet.

Engineering finds this final plat to be in general conformance with the Subdivision Ordinance and recommends its approval subject to final engineering.

Mr. Robison moved, seconded by Mr. Kaplan, to forward a favorable recommendation to the Village Board on the Final Plat of Woodside Park, subject to final engineering.
