A
C

A
A
So
if
you
are
signed
up
to
speak,
I
will
ask
that
you
there'll,
be
two
parts
parts
that
you'll
have
an
opportunity
to
speak.
First
is
to
ask
questions
of
the
petitioner
or
of
the
general
case.
The
second
time
will
be
to
to
do
later
when
you're
giving
your
own
testimony
about
it.
I
would
like
you
when
you
come
up
when
you
speak.
You
please
come
to
the
podium
and
state
your
name
and
address
for
the
record
and.
A
Anything
else
I
should
be
saying:
no,
that's
right.
So
why
don't
I
swear
everyone
in
right
now,
so,
if
you're
going
to
speak,
will
you
raise
your
right
hand,
and-
and
do
you
promise
to
tell
the
truth
great,
all
right,
very
good,
so
the
first
item
on
the
agenda?
Well,
actually,
we
have
besides
approval
of
the
minutes,
we'll
have
two
cases
tonight.
The
first
is
a
text
amendment
and
the
second
is
an
adjustment
to
plan
development.
So
the
first
item
on
the
agenda
is
approval
of
the
minutes
of
the
June
12th
meeting
of
2019.
A
A
C
A
B
So
if
we
recall
actually
last
year,
there
was
a
definition
created
for
a
craft
alcohol
production
facility.
This
facility
is
a
commercial
facility
that
one
produces
beer,
wine
or
other
alcoholic
liquor
and
quantities
compliant
with
all
applicable
local
stay
and
federal
regulations,
and
to
includes
an
accessory
tasting
room
and
zoning
districts
where
the
facility
is
especially
use.
A
tasting
room
is
only
permitted
to
allow
customers
to
taste
samples
of
products
manufactured
on
site
and
purchase
related
sale
items.
B
So
with
those
particular
changes
that
were
just
approved,
which
also
aligned
with
the
state
regulations.
Staff
is
proposing
the
following
change
to
the
definition
of
craft
alcohol
production
facilities
basically
will
be
taking
out
the
language
that
speaks
to
only
allowing
customers
to
taste
samples
of
beer,
alcohol
that
is
brewed
on-site
and
prohibits
the
sale
of
alcohol.
That's
manufactured
off-site
and
would
basically
just
make
sure
that
this
particular
definition
aligns
with
title
3
chapter
4
of
the
Evanston
City
Code.
B
B
The
standards
for
approval
of
this
proposed
amendments
are
as
follows:
whether
the
proposed
amendment
is
consistent
with
the
goals,
objectives
and
policies
of
the
comprehensive.
The
general
plan
is
adopted
and
amended
from
time
to
time
by
the
City
Council,
where
the
proposed
amendment
is
compatible
with
the
overall
character
of
existing
development
in
the
immediate
vicinity
of
the
subject
property,
whether
the
proposed
amendment
will
have
an
adverse
effect
on
the
value
of
adjacent
properties
and
the
adequacy
of
public
facilities
and
services.
A
All
right
so
just
to
clarify
you're,
asking
you're
saying
that
three
things
are
basically
changing
and
going
like
it
here
that
well
so
the
zoning
ordinance.
What
what?
What
is
changing
in
those
Odin
Lloyd's,
there's
three
things
that
City
Council
did
they
added
the
ability
for
having
outside
sources
of
alcohol.
B
B
A
B
A
Say
it's
consistent
with
the
goals
objectives.
Policies
of
the
comprehensive
general
plan
in
time
to
time
is
commended
by
the
City
Council,
since
it's
their
amendment
compatible
with
the
overall
character
of
the
existing
development
or
city,
obviously
beneficial
to
the
city,
I
believe
I,
don't
believe,
there's
any
evidence
of
adverse
effect
on
property
values
and
there's
no
evidence
to
suggest
that
the
adequacy
of
public
facilities
can
cannot
serve
the
increased
capacity.
So
I
think
we've
done
our
due
diligence
on
that
all
right.
So
having
done
that,
yes
does
anyone
have
a
motion
to.
F
C
G
A
D
D
It's
a
building
at
the
corner
of
Chicago,
Avenue
and
Howard
was
approved
as
a
five-story
building
with
26
dwelling
units,
30
parking
spaces,
approximately
5000
square
feet
of
indoor
commercial
area,
7,000
square
feet
of
outdoor
garden
yard,
open
sales
area
and
then
a
second
floor
area
of
office,
space
for
commercial
tenant
that
was
intended
to
be
used
by
the
the
garden
tenant.
On
the
first
floor,
this
approval
has
subsequently
been
extended.
D
A
one-year
extension
was
granted
in
order
to
start
construction
of
this,
so
the
app
clean
is
now
requesting
a
major
adjustment
to
the
planned
development.
The
change
really
the
only
change,
is
to
eliminate
the
second
floor
office
space
and
replace
that
space
with
two
dwelling
units,
one
one-bedroom
unit
and
one
two-bedroom
unit,
which
would
increase
the
the
total
number
dwelling
units
to
28.
There
are
no
physical
changes
that
are
requested
to
the
exterior
of
the
building.
D
This
table
shows
the
difference
in
what
was
approved,
the
planned
development
and
what
is
proposed
with
the
adjustment.
So
you
see
that
number
12
units
going
out
for
26
to
28.
This
actually
reduces
the
number
of
required
parking
spaces
from
37
to
32
and
the
actual
parking
spaces
to
be
provided
would
not
change
so
it
would
stay
at
30.
It
would
just
be
closer
to
conformance
with
the
code
and
the
site
development
allowance
was
granted
as
part
of
the
original
approval
for
parking.
D
D
A
F
You
good
evening,
chairman
luisa
members
of
the
Commission,
my
name
is
katie
Genki
dale
from
the
law
firm
of
DLA
Piper
for
for
West
Lake
in
Chicago
we
represent
Evanston
gateway
for
this
major
adjustment,
request.
I
think
Scott
did
a
great
job,
giving
an
overview
I
think
it's
a
pretty
minor
request,
but
it
does
kind
of
allow
us
to
move
forward
with
this
really
exciting
project
at
the
gateway
to
Evanston.
So
I
won't
repeat
any
everything,
that's
that
just
went
over,
but
we
are
here
I'm
here.
If
you
guys
have
any
questions
tonight.
Thank
you.
F
Still
working
on
pulling
together,
the
financing
for
the
project,
I
believe
we're
getting
very
close,
as
you
can
imagine
with
we
have
this
unique
garden
center.
You
know
ground-floor
retail,
it's
not
your
typical
high-rise
with
a
you
know,
national
retailer
on
the
ground
floor.
So
it's
a
complicated
project
but
we're
working
very
hard
on
a
future
of
Mumbai.
Recently,
there's
a
sign
up
now
coming
soon,
so
I
think
we're
getting
very
close,
and
this
is
a
you
know,
a
major
step
in
that
right
direction.
E
F
So
it
will
all
be
still
accommodated
likely
all
on
the
ground
floor,
I
think
they're.
In
call
from
the
last
time
when
we
went
through
their
original
approval,
there
actually
were
some
concerns
really
from
the
Commission
about
you
know
having
residential
in
the
second
floor
as
well
as
office,
and
how
would
that
work
and
how
are
those
you
know,
kind
of
interact
with
each
other
and
so
I
think
we
see.
F
This
is
an
improvement
that
the
the
ground
floor
tenant
you
know
doesn't
think
that
they
need
that
anymore
for
their
programming,
so
I
think
it
would
operate
like
other
retailers
that
don't
necessarily
have
you,
know
administrative
space
on
a
second
or
on
a
separate
floor.
So
it
kind
of
it
takes
care
of
that
issue
that
was
raised
when
we
went
through
the
original
approvals.
Okay,
thank
you.
A
A
G
A
So
yeah-
and
it
does
certainly
take
care
of
I-
think
our
concern
with
security
of
mixing
mixing
once
you
let
people
into
the
elevator
that
they
had
access
to
any
floor
or
yeah
so
yeah
right,
oh
all,
right
so
I
think
it.
If
there's
no
further
questions
I'm
going
to
open
the
floor,
open
it
up
to
questions
from
the
public,
you're
sure,
Matt,
okay,
all
right
so
are
there
I
think
we
can
move
right
into
public
comment.
Any
comment:
okay,.
G
Good
evening,
mr.
chairman
members
of
the
Commission,
my
name
is
Matt
Rogers
I
live
at
1:33
Clyde,
which
is
directly
over
the
railroad
tracks
from
the
subject,
property
I
came
and
spoke
about
the
property
and
how
excited
we
were,
and
a
couple
of
my
neighbors
came
I
think
during
the
original
presentation,
but
I
wanted
to
come
and
just
say
that
we
all
are
eagerly
still
anticipating
something
like
this
happening
and
I
also
think
it's
a
great
move
for
them
to
acknowledge
what
is
it?
What
else
is
happening
on
the
street?
G
Obviously
them
having
the
event
space.
That's
going
to
be
a
direct
competition
to
a
much
larger
event,
space
that
the
peckish
pig
is
bringing
into
the
area
shows
the
adaptability
of
this
particular
developer
and
how
they're
willing
to
sort
of
say,
okay,
how
does
this
make
sense
and
to
put
with
some
additional
housing
in
this
area
and
bring
more
people
more
eyes
to
Howard
Street
I
think
is
a
positive,
so
I
stand
fully
in
support
of
this
and
hope
you
will
do
very
good
work
here.
Thank
you.
A
A
So
all
right
is
there.
Do
I
hear
a
motion.
A
E
D
It
you
know
the
plan
development
itself
is
especially
used
within
the
district.
So
that's
why
the
special
use
standards
are
applicable,
so
you
can
view
these
here
and
another
way
to
think
of
it's.
You
know
whether
the
change
and
the
project
affects
the
standards
are
called
found
to
be
met
previously,
with
this
ordinance.
A
D
D
A
A
E
D
A
A
D
D
D
E
D
Sure
cuz,
your
Isaac,
so
two
thousand
square
feet
of
space
can
be
subtracted
from
the
lease
intensive
parking
space
use
here.
So
in
this
case
now
it's
it's
subtracted
from
the
retail
space
so
that
essentially
five
thousand
square
feet
of
retail.
The
requirements
for
the
three
thousand
square
feet
of
retail,
with
that
subtraction
of
two
thousand
square
feet
and
that's
a
little
break
8
spaces
by
eight
and
a
half
spaces
for
the
retail
component.
That
would
be
required
and
then,
with
the
change
in
number
of
units,
it
would
be
32
spaces
for
the
the
residential.
A
E
When
you,
when
you
were
talking
about
bulk
I,
you
know
triggered
something
in
my
head
about.
Well,
we
were
adding
to
more
residential
units,
just
a
remove
commercial.
It
obviously
lowered
the
the
requirements,
but
how
does
that
mix
work
with
any
requirements
that
were
in
the
in
the
ordinance?
For
you
know,
ratio
between
commercial
and
residential
if
there
is
none
I'm,
not
gonna,
set
the
applecart
right
now.
A
So
did
we?
What
did
we
decide?
We
decided
that
that
was
satisfied.
Each
plan
development
shall
be
compatible
with
the
end
and
implement
the
adopted
comprehensive
general
plan,
as
amended
any
adopted
land
use
or
urban
design
plans
specific
to
the
area,
the
zoning
ordinance
and
any
other
pertinent
city
planning
and
development
policies.
A
A
You
might
say
that
that
I
believe
mr.
Rogers
testified
that
he
believes
that
at
bringing
more
pedestrians
into
the
area
only
enhances
it
so
more
residential
people
so
will
Skol
that
satisfy
each
plan.
Development,
shell,
enhanced
the
streetscape
and
architectural
character
of
the
business
districts,
including,
where
possible,
preserving
character,
giving
buildings
and
existing
streetscape
amenities.
That's
actually
not
applicable,
I,
believe
to
the
change.
So
all
landscaping
and
streetscaping
treatment
within
the
plan.
A
Development
shall
be
provided
in
accordance
with
the
requirements
set
forth
in
chapter
17,
landscape
and
screening
of
this
title
and
shown
on
the
required
landscape
plan
submitted
as
part
the
plan
development
application.
Well,
that's
not
part
of
this
change
and
it
would
have
been
addressed
in
the
previous
application.
So
not
Apple,
there's
more
all
right,
major
adjustment
to
a
planned
development
standards
and
guidelines
for
planned
developments
in
three
districts
for
all
boundaries
of
the
planned
development,
avoiding
a
residential
property.
A
There
shall
be
provided
a
transition
landscape
strip
of
at
least
10
feet,
consisting
of
vegetation
screening,
fencing
decorative
decorative
walls
in
accordance
with
the
manual
manual
of
design,
guidelines
in
chapter
17,
landscaping
and
screening
of
this
title.
I'm
gonna
stick
with
that's
not
applicable
because
of
the
it's
only
the
variance,
the
variation
that
we're
speaking
to
walkways
development
for
a
plan.
Development
shall
form
a
logical,
safe
and
convenient
system
for
pedestrian
access
to
all
project
facilities,
as
well
as
any
off-site
destination
likely
to
attract
substantial
pedestrian
traffic.
A
Would
say
that
it's
actually
satisfied
and
improves
the
access
and
safety
of
residents
and
and
flow
of
circulation
to
the
building.
Any
objections
know
the
location,
construction
and
operation
of
parking.
Loading
areas
and
service
areas
shall
be
designed
to
avoid
adverse
effects
of
residential
uses
within
or
joining
the
development
and,
where
possible,
provide
additional
parking
beyond
the
requirement
for
the
planned
development.
The
service,
the
business
district
in
which
it
is
located.
So,
even
though,
even
though
the
development
doesn't
provide
the
code
required
amount,
it
is,
it
is
getting
closer
to
it.
A
A
Standards
and
guidelines
for
planned
developments
in
b3
continued
item
5
plan
development
shall
provide,
if
possible,
for
underground
installation
of
utilities,
including
electrical
telephone,
both
in
public
ways
and
private
extensions
thereof.
Provision
shall
be
made
for
acceptable
design
and
construction
of
stormwater
controlled
facilities,
including
grading
gutter,
piping,
treatment
of
turf
and
maintenance
of
facilities.
I
believe
that's
not
affected
by
the
by
the
proposed
change
for
every
planned
development.
A
The
sub
need
provided
a
critic,
circulation
impact
study
that
shall
show
the
effect
of
all
proposed
uses
upon
the
adjacent
area
and
nearby
roads
highways.
The
study
shall
also
show
the
amount
in
the
direction
of
anticipated
traffic
flow,
clearly
describe
what
ruh-roh
improvements
and
traffic
control
improvements
might
become
necessary
as
a
result
of
the
construction
of
the
proposed
development.
I.
Believe
that's
not
applicable
to
the
proposed
change.
