Description
Planning, Zoning & Agriculture Committee Meeting 09/21/2022 9:00am
A
A
B
A
C
Actually
some
concerns
that
the
neighbors,
as
well
as
the
moments
High
School
District,
raised
concerns
that
they
raised
at
at
the
zba
meeting
two
weeks
ago.
So
we
just
wanted
to
reiterate
some
of
those
our
responses
to
their
concerns.
Number
one.
The
fire
department
stated
that
you
know
that
we
had
quite
a
few
alarms,
I
guess:
yeah.
C
This
is
quite
some
time
ago
this
was
early
2021
and
we
remediated
that
issue
like
in
the
spring
of
2021
and
haven't
been
any
concerns
since
then.
But
we
just
wanted
to
reiterate
that,
and
also
with
that
particular
program,
that's
in
rural
moments,
out
on
114,
we
were
teaching
our
young
ladies,
how
to
cook
and
anytime
we
teach
young,
ladies,
how
to
cook.
Inevitably
something
will
get
burned
so
with
the
the
property
that
we're
proposing.
C
However,
we
have
we've
reached
out
to
the
moments
fire
department
to
ensure
to
let
them
know
that
you
know
when
we
are
ready
to
install
our
fire
safety
system,
that
we'll
be
doing
it
in
consultation
with
the
moments
fire
department
to
make
sure
that
everything
is
up
to
their
standards
as
well
as
up
to,
of
course,
the
the
not
the
Fire
Chief
Fire
Marshal
Illinois
State
Fire
Marshal
office
as
well.
So
that
was
one
issue
that
that
that
was
raised.
C
C
Ladies,
the
other
issues
I'm
going
to
let
Clinical
Director,
as
well
as
our
congregate
care
administrator
address
when
it
comes
to
the
issues
that
were
raised
by
moments
high
school,
as
well
as
some
of
the
issues
that
was
raised
regarding
the
mental
health
statuses
of
the
young.
Ladies,
thank
you.
Okay,
thank
you.
D
Morning,
good
morning,
Stacy
Noble
and
also
my
address
657
East
Court
Street
I,
am
the
congregate
care
administrator
for
Gardener
prayer.
I
also
said
on
the
Illinois
State
Board
of
Education
for
Pembroke
Township
I'm
also
have
experience
with
working
with
temporary
shelters.
I
come
out
of
Aurora
and
I
worked
for
Aunt
Martha's
for
13
years
at
the
temporary
shelter
there.
So
I
have
a
lot
of
experience
working
with
temporary
shelters.
D
E
Yeah,
the
writing
so
good
morning,
Mikhail
Harris
clinical
division,
director
garden
of
prayer,
Youth
Center,
also,
the
address
to
657,
East,
Court
and
I
wanted
to
say
something
about
the
psychiatric
issues,
because
it
was
a
concern
of
kids
going
into
psychiatric
crisis,
but
will
be
a
shelter
and
less
than
six
percent
of
the
kids
we
deal
with
actually
get
into
psychiatric
crisis.
When
you
deal
with
kids
who
are
transit
or
homeless,
these
kids
experience
anxiety.
E
They
experience
depression,
they
experience
attachment
disorders,
but
psychiatric
issues
is,
is
usually
not
what
these
kids
experienced,
because
it
was
expressed
that
they
were
concerned
about
psychiatric
crisis
when
kids
go
into
psychiatric
crisis,
kids
go
to
hospitals
and
kids
go
to
residentials
and
they
go
into
Lots
facilities
in
the
state
of
Illinois,
but
we
won't
be
dealing
with
that
population.
This
population
also
will
be
younger
than
a
population
that
we
usually
deal
with.
So
when
the
psychiatric
crisis
happens,
we
usually
don't
get
those
those
type
of
kids.
E
We
really
truly
are
dealing
with
kids
in
the
state
of
Illinois
that
are
displaced
also
about
the
safety.
We
also
will
have
at
least
four
train
licensed
professionals
working
on
every
ship
that
we
have
will
also
have
emergency
staff
committed
to
psychiatric
crisis.
If
it
actually
happens,
but
again,
even
the
population.
We
have
now
less
than
six
percent
of
the
kids.
We
have
actually
going
to
psychiatric
crisis
and
in
the
Department
of
Children
and
Family
Services,
they
don't
send
children
in
psychiatric
crisis
to
shelters.
E
These
are
just
kids
that
need
a
place
to
stay
and
they
need
a
place
to
live
until
a
location
is
founded
for
them,
so
that
they'll
have
a
nice
home
to
live
in
so
and
actually
turn
into
the
educational
piece
too.
When
we
get
these
kids,
a
lot
of
our
kids
won't
be
with
us
six
months.
So
some
of
the
kids
that
we
get
will
not
even
go
to
school
in
the
district.
They
may
be
able
to
take
advantage
of
the
new
system
in
Illinois
where,
since
covet,
they
can
take
their
educations
online.
E
A
lot
of
them
we're
going
to
opt
to
keep
them
in
the
districts
that
they
are
with,
because
they're
stent
with
us
will
be
so
short
and
they
actually
re-traumatize
a
child
to
put
them
in
a
whole
entire
new
school
go
to
that
school
for
14
days,
then
we
take
them
out
of
that
school,
and
then
we
send
them
to
another
another
District
when
they
get
a
location
to
live.
So
that's
all
I
had
so
that
would
be
on
the
record
and
I.
E
F
There
was
only
support
from
the
people
who
did
end
up
showing
up.
We
feel
that
these
are
great
locations
as
they
impact
the
least
amount
of
people,
while
still
providing
a
benefit
to
bring
about
2500
households
within
the
county,
a
renewable
source
of
energy.
So
just
kind
of
wanted
to
talk
on
that
and
I
hope.
You
guys
can
see
the
benefits
that
these
projects
can
bring
and
thank
you.
A
Thank
you.
Okay.
That's
all
we
have
for
public
comment
today.
Okay,
next
up
is
the
approval
of
minutes.
Everybody
received
the
minutes.
I
made
money
to
have
any
additions,
deletions
or
Corrections.
They
would
like
to
make
firing.
None
of
the
entertain,
a
motion
and
the
second
to
approve
Mr,
Swanson,
first
Mr
Snipes,
second,
all
favor,
say
aye,
okay,
all
right!
Okay!
Next
up
we
have
the
building
report
Dell's
going
to
give
that
to
us.
We
get
a
motion
to
approve
it
or
we're
just
going
to
get
this
for
information.
G
G
All
right,
the
July
building
report
should
have
been
handed
out
to
you
today.
It
was
not
done
in
time
to
put
in
your
packet.
We
had
a
total
of
85
permits
for
July,
with
a
revenue
of
thirty
two
thousand
four
hundred
and
fifty
Seven
dollars.
No
new
homes.
We
did
have
a
Enterprise
Zone
industrial
permit
for
CSL,
with
a
value
of
seventeen
thousand
forty
one
dollars.
Total
revenues
for
the
month
of
July
was
thirty.
Six
thousand
nine
hundred
ninety
two
dollars
for
August
2022.
G
B
G
A
G
G
A
G
Kelly,
could
you
put
this
up
here
all
right.
First
slide,
all
right:
the
Kanki
solar
one
LLC
solar
farm
is
in
the
process
of
applying
for
their
building
permits
and
part
of
that
part
of
the
requirements
for
that
is
that
they
have
a
decommissioning
plan
and
bond
in
place
with
the
county.
They've
submitted
the
decommissioning
plan
and
my
staff
has
reviewed
it
and
it
is
adequate
and
the
bond
amount
for,
for
that
one
would
be
226.
G
073.88
I
do
have
a
map
up
there,
showing
you
the
locations
of
these
kenkey
solar
one
is
to
the
west
of
to
the
basically
to
the
west
of
the
Diamond
Point
Baseball
Fields,
the
that
little
white
area
down
at
the
bottom
is
the
substation
down
there.
That
kind
of
complex
you
see
there.
So
it's
the
one
up
to
the
west
of
that.
This
is
your.
This
would
be
the
two
megawatt
Community
solar
Gardens
that
were
approved
by
zoning
in
2018.
G
Them
I
can't
if
you'd
like
sure,
let's
talk
about
both
of
them,
the
other
one
is
khanki
solar.
Three,
these
are
by
the
same
company.
Even
though
that's
that's,
the
name
of
the
company
is
pivot
energy.
They
give
them
all
LLC
names,
though
Kanki
solar
3
is
the
the
Box
on
the
right
hand,
side
there
it's
a
larger
parcel,
but
it's
not
using
the
entire
partial.
That's
a
two
megawatt
as
well.
A
A
A
G
G
This
case
did
go
to
the
zoning
board
of
appeals
on
September
6th.
There
were
some
public
comments.
If
you
have
your
findings,
a
fact
sheet
in
front
of
you
that
you
can
read
them
there,
but
I
can
give
you
a
few
highlights.
Rosemary
Foster
stated
she
was
a
retired
DCFS
worker,
and
that
is
important
to
have
these
facilities.
G
Robert
Snipes,
County,
Board
member
snipe
stated
that
he
is
the
president
of
kccsi
and
that
his
name
speaks
for
itself.
He
stated
that
facilities
like
this
change,
The
Narrative
of
a
child's
life
and
that
he
is
proof
of
this
statement.
He
also
stated
the
garden
of
prayer
is
very
passionate
about
what
they
do.
Daryl
McBride,
an
adjoining
property
owner,
asked
if
the
board
members
would
like
to
live
next
door
to
a
facility
like
this,
there
was
no
response.
G
G
He
further
stated
the
district
resources
are
finite
and
that
this
would
be
the
third
facility
in
the
district
Jennifer
McBride
an
adjoining
property
owner
asked
what
will
happen
if
the
to
the
remaining
Farmland
Mr
Maloney
stated
that
it
would
continue
to
be
farmed.
So
those
were
the
public
comments
taken
at
the
at
the
hearing
also
testified
at
the
hearing
that
the
house
has
two
kitchens
I
think
two
bathrooms
five
bedrooms.
It
would
be
converted
to
a
to
the
community
residential
home.
G
G
A
G
A
H
A
Okay,
but
they
could
put
10
children
in
10,
Cottages
right,
conceivably,
yes,
okay,
that
would
be
possible,
so
I,
don't
know
how
anybody
else
feels
about
that.
Like
about
that
I,
don't
think
it's
a
problem
for
them.
If
that's
their
real
goal
is
to
get
that
property
use
that
particular
property
to
say
that
there
wouldn't
be
any
more
reunions
added,
because
we
have
problems
with
calls
out
in
the
rural
areas
as
it
is
now.
J
J
G
A
G
A
I
G
I
mean
as
long
as
they
don't
exceed
10
students.
If
they
decide
they
only
want
to
put
three
or
three
children
in
this
house
and
build
another
house
for
the
other.
Seven,
that's
still
within
the
guidelines
of
10.
They
cannot
exceed
the
10,
but
there
could
be
two
buildings
if
they
wanted
to
give
each
one
of
them
their
own
Cottage
and
have
ten
little
cottages
know,
there's
building
permits
and
various
other
yeah.
H
G
I
G
Could
build
whatever
whoever
could
build
whatever
they
wanted
to
make
a
residential
subdivision
on
the
remaining
property,
it's
possible.
That
would
require
other
actions
by
this
board,
such
as
so
that
would
require
another
another
hearing.
Then
no,
there
would
be
more
hearings
if
they
divided
it
up.
They
couldn't
put
a
second
Community
residential
home
on
one
of
those
other
Lots,
okay.
That
would
require
another
hearing
and
another
approval.
Okay,
so
we
kind.
G
G
G
G
Right
now,
okay,
yeah
I,
believe
so
don't
well.
The
County
Board
would
have
to
approve
this
at
the
next
County
board
meeting
and
then
they
would
apply
for
their
building
permits
for
any
Renovations
that
they
would
have
to
have
and
then,
depending
on
how
long
it
takes
for
them
to
do
the
construction.
So
six
months,
probably
maybe
a
year
I,
don't
I,
don't
know
what
their
timeline
is.
Okay,
but
the
only
thing
the
remaining
they
would
need
from
us
would
be
the
building
permits.
D
L
G
M
M
It's
used
for
that
particular
purpose.
It's
going
to
maintain
that
particular
purpose
and
it's
leased
out
for
that
particular
purpose.
So
changing
the
farm
is
not
the
about
six
or
seven
other
properties.
Again
they
don't
it's
not
an
expansion.
They
want
to
do
that.
They
could
have
on
the
on
the
farm,
which
is
another
40,
50
acres.
They
don't
do
that.
M
They,
like
the
farmland
and
it's
to
give
individuals
an
opportunity
to
come
out
of
a
a
Troublesome
environment
into
more
of
a
a
farm
area
where
they're
able
to
laugh
and
and
to
be
able
to
run
play
be
able
to
get
the
academics
away
without
the
threats
of
violence
and
things
of
that
so
they're.
The
safety
of
the
children
is
the
mo
is
the
most
priority
of
going
to
prayer
and
the
vision
of
God
In
Prayer.
So
we
our
integrity,
speaks
for
itself.
M
G
M
G
M
A
M
I
G
I
Like
well,
it's
not
I
just
want
to
know
because
we're
hearing
of
a
discrepancy
in
the
costs.
You
know
the
the
applicant
has
said
some
things
at
public
comments.
So
that's
not
necessarily
evidence
at
that
point.
It's
not
under
testimony.
You
see
where
I'm
going
with
that.
So
it's
we
always
have
that
problem
with
public
comment
on
what's
evidence,
because
that's
what
this
body
is.
I
We
are
the
quasi-judicial
body
where
we
have
to
vote
based
on
certain
criteria
right
and
you
can't
have
preconceived
notions,
that's
one
of
the
reasons
or
connections
to
the
applicants.
That's
why
Mr
Snipes
has
to
recuse
himself,
and
we
should
really
never
speak
on
these
topics
outside
of
this
room
right
here.
I
So
that's
why
I
bring
that
up,
because
it
prejudices
the
whole
process,
even
though
I
would
be
the
one
to
make
the
motion
that
we
accept
this
I
just
want
to
make
sure
our
process
is
clean
because
I
don't
want
to
come
back
in
front
of
this
body
again.
Does
that
make
sense
I
think
we
got
it
all?
Okay,.
G
The
the
public,
the
process
is
really
important.
The
public
comments
stated
here
this
morning
concerning
the
school
district
was
not
was
not
presented
at
the
at
the
hearing
itself.
So
that
is
just
a
public
comments.
Exactly
the
school
district
did
address,
some
of
that
the
504
meetings
and
there's
a
whole
list
of
various
hours
that
the
and
costs
that
the
school
district
would
incur
per
student.
If,
if
those
requirements
were
needed.
I
And
then
the
other
thing
was
the
substantiation
on
the
typical
time
until
placement,
whatever
the
final
destinations
of
these
young
women
are,
if
you
will
girls
and
young
women,
how
long
is
the
state
average,
when
they're
in
I
want
to
say
that
part
of
the
system
until
they
get
into
a
permanent
or
semi-permanent
accommodation?
Could
anyone
testify.
A
J
Ahead,
you
gotcha
anyone
did
from
garden
of
prayer,
did
talk
about
the
timeline
from
when
a
child
was
placed
with
them
to
the
time
that
they
are
placed
in
a
a
setting
that
is
adequate
for
them.
I
believe
somebody
did
testify
to
that,
but
we
don't
have
the
written
written
record.
The
other
thing
is
Shannon
Anderson,
that's
the
guy
that
testified
for
the
school
made
public
comments,
because
here
it
just
says,
Mr
Anderson
is
concerned
about
the
impact.
K
J
A
A
A
Okay,
all
in
favor,
say
aye
did
we
do
that
already?
Yeah?
Okay,
sorry,
not
losing
my
paper.
Okay.
Next
up
is
zba
case
2210,
a
request
for
rezoning
from
A1
agriculture,
District

A2
agriculture,
Estates

D

Christian,
Berger
property
owners
and
applicants.
A
G
The
burgers
Mr
and
Mrs
Berger
would
like
to
are
requesting
that
the
16
acre
tract
that
is
outlined
in
red
on
the
map
up
there
be
rezoned
from
A1
agriculture
to
A2
agricultural
estate
to
permit
them
the
ability
to
build
a
home
and
a
a
hobby
Farm
on
that
property.
The
history
of
this
property
is
it
used
to
be
a
20
Acre
Site
and
the
previous
owner
divided
off
the
the
home
that
you
see
there.
G
Now
that's
cut
out
of
it
with
four
acres,
leaving
the
16
acres
left
at
that
time.
That
owner
was
informed
that
you
needed
20
acres
to
build
a
home
in
the
A1
District,
so
that
that
16
Acres
would
not
be
buildable
for
a
home
without
a
some
type
of
zoning
action,
which
is
that's
what
this
action
is
being
requested
today,
the
variants,
the
A2
district
has
a
minimum
lot
size
of
two
acres
and
a
maximum
lot
size
of
15
Acres,
because
this
parcel
is
16
acres
in
size.
G
I
G
A
I
Do
linger
yeah
it
comes
back
later
and
that's
why
I'm
bringing
this
up?
Because
when
you
look
at
those
amount
of
Acres
were
basically
not
approving
just
one
house,
we
would
be
approving
the
potential
of
three
on
that
that
same
plot.
They
could
sell
off
two
other
ones,
and
we
created
a
subdivision
that.
I
G
I
There's
going
to
be
one,
but
the
the
potential
is
three
and
if
we
don't
have
enough
patrolmen
for
the
road
now
and
the
fire
districts
we
see
in
the
newspaper,
they
don't
have
enough
money
to
operate
their
ambulance
services.
It's
a
real
problem,
so
we're
basically
encouraging
people
to
move
to
the
rural
area,
and
we
can't
provide
those
Services
because
we
don't
have
enough
funds
to
do
so.
So
I'm
not
saying
we
need
to
start
hammering
this,
but
we
really
need
to
think
about
these
decisions.
Yeah.
G
G
M
Well,
I
do
share
the
concern.
I
I
also
know
that
if
they
were
to
split
that
up
into
and
make
three
homes
would
that
not
increase
what
almost
what
they
need
as
far
as
property
value,
it
would
increase
the
taxes
because
there
will
be
a
home
if
there
were
three
homes,
we're
just
talking
hypothetical.
If
those
homes
are
built
at
200
000,
then
that
means
that
it
would
be
assessed
and
put
on
the
tax
rolls
versus
just
land.
M
So
that
means
it
would
only
it
would
it
would
the
tax
benefit
to
any
government
agency
when
they
do?
That
would
be
that
they
will
be
paying
upwards
in
taxes,
maybe
four
five,
six,
seven,
eight
thousand,
we
don't
know,
but
the
thing
is
so.
If
you
had
three,
that's
twenty
four
thousand
at
some
given
point
in
time.
If
that
was
the
case
of
people
moving
somewhat
into
the
rule,
then
they
would
at
some
point
be
able
to
have
Revenue
to
substantiate
the
additional
income
for
services
I'm.
M
Just
hypothetically
speaking,
Yeah,
you
put
a
house
up
there,
it's
not
going
to
be
one
or
two
dollars,
so
it's
going
to
be
more
than
what
the
current
absence
of
the
land.
So
land
is
one
thing,
but
when
you
start
putting
things
on
it
with
a
house
garage
those
that
tends
to
go
up
for
assessment
value,
does
it
not.
G
The
Farmland
doesn't
require
anywhere
near
the
services
that
those
three
homes
would
require
and
Studies
have
proven
that
the
amount
of
property
tax
that
is
collected
from
one
single
family
home
does
not
in
any
way
pay
for
the
services
required
for
it.
I
think
the
last
figure
I
had
seen
it
takes
typically
about
six
thousand
dollars
a
year
to
educate
one
child.
A
G
A
G
We
this
is
the
first
one,
we've
seen
with
this
type
of
acreage
that
I
can
recall
for
the
A2
District.
Typically,
they
come
in
at
two
to
five
acres,
which
are
not
dividable
again
without
some
type
of
board
action:
okay,
whoever
there
is
a
trend
because
there
is
going
to
be
another
one
or
two
coming
in
in
the
next
few
months.
G
A
G
G
G
There
would
be
no
further
action
by
the
County
Board
required
to
do
that,
so
there
would
be
very
little
expense,
there'd,
be
a
survey
and
the
filing
of
the
Deeds.
To
accomplish
that.
There
would
be
absolutely
no
review
by
by
the
County
Board.
There
would
be
no
review
by
the
natural
resource
inventory
report
for
The
Soil
and
Water
Conservation.
There
would
be
no
review
from
any
other
government
agency
other
than
the
building
permits
themselves.
Okay,.
I
A
I
Subdivisions
with
because
they
don't
have
enough
money
to
operate
right
now,
anyway,
they
can't
serve
the
ambulances
of
these
area
and
we're
small
parts
of
the
tax
bill.
It's
a
school
district
that'll,
get
it
all
and
the
school
district
last
time
I
checked,
doesn't
send
ambulances
or
police
out
to
your
house.
That's
all
I'm,
saying
we've
got
to
have
a
policy
here
and
really
understand
what
we're
doing
and
not
just
saying
well,
I
I
would
want
to
do
the
same
thing.
I
Well,
you
don't
want
your
taxes
to
go
up,
but
you
want
to
have
rural
subdivisions
everywhere.
The
two
don't
go
together
very
well
yeah!
You
understand
what
I'm
saying:
that's!
That's
all
I
want
the
community
to
realize
what
we're
doing
it's,
not
a
one-off.
This
is
connected
to
a
lot
of
different
things.
L
G
Likely
because
when
each
locket,
that
is
a
quarter
mile
of
Frontage,
was
it
which
is
1320
feet
and
you
need
330
feet
for
one
driveway,
okay,
so
no
they
could
get
three
driveways
in
there.
In
fact,
the
corner
lot
could
have
one
on
each
side.
So,
as
I
said,
there
would
be
no
further
action
by
the
board
and
when
it
comes
to
building
permits,
if
they
meet
the
requirements
of
the
code,
then
they
get
the
building
permit
issue.
There
is
no
action
by
the
board
for
that
either.
M
However,
with
the
five
acres
five,
if
it
was
cut
them
into
five
acres,
I
I'm
not
gonna,
be
the
person
to
restrict
the
person
on
their
land
or
their
property
in
this
particular
area.
Even
though
I
do
hear
the
warnings
that
we
do
have
another
one
coming
up
and
we
do
them
on
a
case-by-case
basis
and
also
here
the
concerns
even
of
the
chairman.
K
G
G
That
is
the
County's
2005
is
when
the
County
Board
adopted
the
our
current
comprehensive
plan,
which
has
an
accompanying
map
with
it
right.
Okay,
that
is
a
that,
is
a
20-year
plan.
Okay,
we
are
getting
really
close
to
being
at
the
end
of
that
20
years.
Typically,
you
do
update
them
10
to
15
years
out.
G
A
A
O
A
A
A
G
G
They
have
purchased
that
to
add
it
into
their
facility
and
would
like
to
expand
the
facility
onto
that
property
when
a
special
use
permit
is
granted
it's
granted
for
a
specific
legal
description,
and
this
property
is
outside
that
legal
description.
So,
in
order
to
utilize
that
property
into
their
facility,
they
need
to
have
their
special
use.
Permit
reapproved,
and
this
one
was
on
September
this.
This
was
also
September
6th
went
to
the
zoning
board
of
appeals.
M
K
K
G
A
A
G
Today,
all
right,
this
is
a
request
for
a
a
five
megawatt
Community
solar
garden,
located
on
Warner
Bridge
Road
about
a
quarter
mile
north
of
Illinois
Route
102.
on
the
Jackson
Farmland
owned
by
Jackson
Family
Trust.
It
is
a
35
acre
parcel.
It's
as
I
said
it
was
five
megawatts
in
size.
The
state
recently
probably
about
six
months
ago
changed
the
rules
for
Community
solar
Gardens
back
in
2018.
G
They
were
limited
to
two
megawatts
in
size
which
came
out
to
about
20
acres,
but
they
did
allow
them
to
co-locate
two
on
a
40
acre
parcel,
so
you
could
have
up
to
four
megawatts
now.
The
standard
size
is
five
megawatts
and
it's
generally
on
around
35
to
40
acres.
So
those
are
the
applications
that
we
are
getting
jeez,
that's
big
yeah.
This
was
whole
This,
Was
Heard
by
the
zoning
board
on
September
12th.
G
G
G
I
I
It's
not
a
permanent
you're,
not
taking
that
that
land
out
of
use,
at
least
the
scores
are
based
on
things
like
access
to
schools
and
roadways,
and
these
are
all
rural.
So
it's
I,
don't
know
why
we
keep
having
that
discussion
about
leases,
scores
and
farmland,
because
they're
permanently
not
going
out
of
production,
they're,
temporary
right
and
those
scores
are
skewed
in
this
context.
They're
not
they're,
not
accurately
just
depict
what
the
situation
is
with
that
land
yeah.
Does
that
make
sense?
I
guess
maybe.
G
I
think
I
can
explain
a
little
better
on
that.
The
Lisa
score
is
part
of
the
natural
resource
inventory
report
and
that
report
is
required
for
all
special
use
permits
and
all
rezoning
pretty
much
anything
that
would
conceivably
take
land
out
of
farm
production.
Okay,
so
they
are
required.
Our
ordinance
requires
that
they
do
that,
and
the
lease
a
score
is
part
of
that.
G
So
a
lot
of
the
scoring
criteria,
there's
two
parts
of
the
scoring
criteria.
That's
why
it's
called
Lisa
land
evaluation,
that's
the
soil,
the
productivity,
all
the
things
that
agricultural
land
would
be
looked
at
from
a
farming
standpoint,
drainage
that
sort
of
thing
that
score
pretty
much
based
on
you
know
it's
it's
based
on
the
the
information
tables
for
those
particular
soil
types.
Not
very
that
score
is
what
it
is
and
that's
about.
G
50
of
the
score,
the
score
where
the
part
of
the
score,
which
is
the
site
assessment
part
of
the
score,
is
the
part
that
really
doesn't
fit
for
solar
Farms.
These
are
questions
like:
what's
the
proximity
to
schools,
to
police
and
fire,
because
if
you're
going
to
put
a
rural
subdivision
out,
as
we
talked
about
earlier,
the
closer
you
are,
the
less
expense
is
the
what's:
the
availability
of
public,
sewer
and
water.
All
of
these
things
are
not
things
that
solar,
Farms
need.
G
G
Temporary
could
be
20
to
40
years,
but
at
some
point,
if
they
don't
repower
them
and
we
you
know,
I
can't
predict
the
future.
It
will
be
reverted
back
to
farmland
and
come
back
to
farming
in
a
much
better
condition
than
it
than
it
left,
so
so
denying
one
based
on
the
lease
of
score.
I.
Think
in
my
opinion,
is
a
disservice
to
that
there
could
be
other
reasons.
You'd
want
to
deny
it,
but
if
you
just
base
it
solely
on
the
on
the
Lisa
score,
you
really
shouldn't.
A
H
A
A
Okay,
next
up
is
zba
case
2213
request
for
a
special
use,
permit
section,
12199,
34,
solar
farm
in
the
A1
agricultural
district
and
a
variance
to
section
12199,
34
B7
interconnect
agreement
on
a
parcel
generally
situated
in
section
17
of
Limestone
Township.
The
petitioners
are
Wayne
yeah,
doorly's,
H,
O'connor
trust,
property
owners
and
USS
Connor
solar
LLC
applicant
okay.
Can
we
get
a
talk
about
a
motion
in
a
second
here?
G
G
Just
property
is
located
at
5876,
West,
2000,
South
Road,
it's
in
Limestone
Township.
You
can
see
it
outlined
in
red
there.
It
was
160
acre
parcel,
but
has
had
a
few
homes
cut
out
of
it.
The
solar
farm
proposed
is
proposed
to
use
the
35
Acres
up
in
the
upper
northeast
corner
of
it
for
a
another
five
megawatt
Community
solar
garden.
G
There
was
a
public
comment
on
this.
Dennis
O'connor
who
owns
the
property
of
the
East,
did
ask
the
exact
measurement
between
the
two,
the
property
line
and
the
facility's
fence,
and
that
was
stated
to
be
80
feet.
They
will
be
placing
a
a
landscape
buffer
along
2000
Road
for
the
enjoyment
of
those
homes
across
the
street.
I.
Think
there's
one
one
home
across
the
street,
so
they
will
be
putting
a
landscape
buffer
on
the
Northern
portion
of
it.
A
G
Be
the
variance
it's
the
same
reason
as
the
previous
one.
At
some
point,
we
may
want
to
take
a
look
at
our
ordinances
about
possibly
changing
that
because
the
industry
these
days,
you
really
get
your
approval
from
the
local
Authority.
First,
then,
you
go
talk
to
comment
about
your
interconnect
agreement,
but
because
our
ordinance
still
says
that
they
needed
a
variance
for
it.
Okay,
good.
A
F
Yes,
I
appreciate
it.
Yeah
I
just
wanted
to
make
a
clarification
on
the
reason
for
the
variance
on
the
exact
submittee
or
submittal
to
ComEd.
We,
we
already
have
a
pre-application
back
from
comment
to
say
that
the
utilities
out
there
can
support
a
project
of
this
size,
but
we
have
not
formally
have
an
interconnection
agreement.
F
This
was
done
specifically
because,
like
you
said
said
before
the
the
cost
of
doing
this
is
very
high
and
the
developers
that
were
taking
advantage
of
the
program
and
and
winning
more
projects
were
the
the
larger
companies
that
could
support
more
of
those.
So
they
gave
the
the
smaller
guys
here
a
little
bit
more
of
a
chance
by
by
removing
this
as
a
requirement.
So
it's
still
something
that
we
have
to
do
we'll
just
be
providing
that
at
a
later
date.
Okay,
thank
you.
Thank.
A
N
G
I
G
I
Follow
up
then
okay,
would
it
be?
Okay
is
if
we
do
find
that
this
is
a
value
and
we
do
approve
it.
We
could
provide
that
for
the
full
board.
Would
that
be
appropriate
just
in
case,
so
we
can
sell
the
full
board
that
this
is
the
nature
of
the
uniqueness
of
it.
So
I
think
if
we,
if,
if
we
we
can't
go
forward,
it
shouldn't
be
tabled,
I
think
we
can
go
forward
pending
they're
pulling
those
documents
and
showing
that
unique
nature.
I
think
we
need
to
say
that
on.
G
No!
Oh
there,
it
is
okay.
We
did
ask
for
proposals.
We
had
two
companies
that
provided
a
proposal
for
us
and
the
amounts
are
information
and
Records
Associates
with
seventy
thousand
ninety
three
dollars
and
ninety
seven
cents
and
proven
it
is
91
210,
and
this
would
be
for
all
of
our
permitting
files,
our
property
files,
subdivision
files
and
general
files.
G
A
A
I
G
Yeah
we
will
put
the
date
on
them.
I
mean
there's
various
dates
in
these
files.
So
the
day
they
come
back
to
us.
That's
when
we're
going
to
start
the
five
years
on
each
box,
each
box
will
be
labeled
by
the
drawer.
It
came
out
of
I,
see
each
drawer
of
a
cabinet
will
be
a
box.
Okay,
gotcha.
Thank
you.
Okay,.
A
G
I
do
I
believe
at
the
last
PGA
meeting.
I
brought
this
up
to
the
committee.
We've
been
having
a
a
lot
of
issues
with
attendance
and
with
commission
members
renewing
their
their
appointments.
We've
also
had
a
lot
of
trouble
getting
quorums
at
our
meetings.
In
fact,
we
have
gone
several
months
with
the
inability
to
even
approve
minutes
at
meetings
because
of
lack
of
attendance.
G
Our
current
Planning
Commission
is
at
17
members,
two
of
those
being
County
board
members
to
help
Within
I.
If
you
guys
look
at
the
agendas
month
after
month,
we
announced
that
we
have
openings
on
the
regional
Planning
Commission
and
there
does
not
seem
to
be
anybody
out
there.
That
wants
to
wants
to
join
the
way
you
can
get
very
few
applications
to
help
Rectify
this,
which
would
lower
our
our
our
Quorum
requirements
and
since
we're
not
having
people
who
really
want
to
participate.
G
We
currently
have
two
well
there's
two
openings
on
the
Planning
Commission
right
now
that
have
absolutely
no
one
slated
for
those
and
the
third
one
Mr
or
Dr
Peter
radulovic
has
expressed
that
he
no
longer
wants
to
be
on
the
commission
as
well.
So
there's
three
there
that
have
nobody
in
them
and
then
we
have
a
few
others
and
I.
A
H
I
I,
just
think
that
if
the
promotion
is
made
that
it
should
reflect
not
necessarily
renewed
application,
but
it
should
be
has
missed,
has
not
been
there
in
over
a
year,
because
there
is
somebody
who's
on
that
commission
who's.
The
secretary
that
has
a
renewed
their
application,
but
they
don't
miss
any
meetings.
They
just
haven't,
sent
their
application.
Okay,
so
I
think
it's
really
attendance
and
not
application.
If
you
will
so
when
we're
declaring
the
vacancy
okay
I
would
just
hate
to
lose
a
member,
because
she
hasn't
reapplied
but
she's,
always
there,
but.
I
All
the
resolutions
say
that
and
or
inteller
replacement
is
found,
so
we'd
actually
have
to
end.
The
motion.
We're
gonna
have
to
remove
those
who
have
not
been
for
a
year
and
then,
when
these
new
appointments
come
up,
because
we
have
what
five
that
are
four
that
are
going
to
renew
at
the
end
of
the.
I
And
so
out
of
those
four
or
five,
there
may
be
two
that
you
know
we
may
be
one
over.
We
may
be
at
12
people,
so
we'll
have
to
make
some
decisions
at
that
point.
Does
that
make
sense,
but
some
of
those
people
don't
come
either.
So
it's
it's!
It's
that's
what
we're
getting
at
here.
We
in
a
couple
of
months,
it'll
be
a
year
for
a
few
of
those
folks.
I
A
M
M
A
M
A
Okay
and
how
long
would
it
take
where
this
takes
place,
where
they
would
drop
to
the
11?
Would
it
be
next
meeting
of
the
regional
planning?
We
got
to
go
for
the
County
Board
and
change
it
as
soon
as
the
path
okay.
So
as
soon
as
it
goes
through
the
11th
or
whenever
that
is
coming
up
the
next
meeting,
then
okay.

The
public
notice
in
the
newspaper
did
not
get
published,
so
we
had
to
reschedule.
It
will
now
be
October
6th
still
at
the
library
6
p.m.
On
the
fourth
floor,
so
if
you
have
anyone
interested
in
attending,
please
let
them
know
we're
trying
to
get
the
word
out
as
much
as
possible.
The
mailings
had
already
gone
out
to
the
adjoining
property
owners,
so
there
may
be
some
confusion
as
to
the
new
date,
but
they
will
be
getting
new
notices.
