Planning, Zoning & Agriculture Committee Meeting 05/19/2021 9:00 AM
A
A
Thank
you.
We
have
no
public
comment
today.
Everyone
got
a
chance
to
see
the
email
with
you
with
the
minutes
on
it
from
our
last
minute
from
april
21st.
Does
anyone
have
any
changes
they
want
to
make
or
deletions
or
anything,
if
not
we'll,
entertain
a
motion
to
pass
or
get
mr
kirkster
and
oh
ray
mr
fairfield?
A
B
Miss
peters
aye,
mr
collins,
all
right,
miss
hudson.
I,
mr
alexander
hildebrand.
A
A
Okay,
next
up
will
be
the
building
report.
Mr
skimmerhorn
will
present
that
for
number
three.
C
Monthly
builder
report
for
april
2021
is
should
be
in
your
packet.
We
issued
98
permits
for
april,
one
of
those
being
a
new
home
revenue
brought
in
was
twenty
four
thousand
one
hundred
and
sixty
nine
dollars
comparable
to
2020.
In
april
we
almost
doubled
the
number
of
permits
for
this
april
and
in
april
2020
we
had
only
54
permits
and
brought
in
revenue
of
11
058
dollars,
so
pretty
much
doubled
the
revenue
and
doubled
the
number
of
permits.
A
A
B
A
You
next
up,
we
have
a
report
on
our
building
safety
month:
yeah,
I'm
gonna,
let
steve
okay,
miss
steve
marion
talk
about
come
on.
Where
would
you
like
to
come
up
here
or
down
there
back
there?
Okay
go
ahead
thanks.
D
D
As
you
may
recall,
back
in
march,
you
guys
at
this
committee,
as
well
as
the
full
county
board,
passed
a
declaration
making
may
building
safety
month,
which
is
in
coordination
with
the
the
federal
icc
national
building
safety
month.
Also,
that
was
in
may
so
in
accordance
with
that.
The
icc
approved
that
also
in
the
icc,
for
those
of
you
that
aren't
familiar,
is
the
the
governing
body
that
we
get
our
codes
from
stands
for
the
international
code
council.
D
This
provides
us
with
some
additional
resources
that
we
can
use
to
promote
building
safety
month.
Obviously,
this
year
with
covet,
we,
our
opportunities,
were
a
little
bit
less
than
they
have
been,
because
there
wasn't
much
public
to
outreach,
since
we
were
all
kind
of
still
locked
down
a
little
bit
and
it's
our
first
year
that
we've
been
involved
in
in
that
proclamation.
D
So
next
year,
I'm
looking
forward
to
when
things
get
back
to
normal,
you
know
being
able
to
utilize
a
little
bit
more
these
resources
to
kind
of
reach
out
and
do
some
public
outreach
to
promote
the
the
building
safety
aspect
of
this.
The
proclamation
also
gives
us
some
credits
towards
a
hazard
mitigation
plan
that
we
have
to
re-establish
every
five
years
and
we're
in
the
middle
of
right
now.
D
So
this
also
gives
us
a
little
bit
of
of
some
credentials
and
some
credits
with
regards
to
that
we're
also
in
the
preliminary
stage
of
updating
our
codes
from
the
2015
to
the
2021
that
will
probably
not
come
to
fruition
until
towards
the
end
of
next
year,
with
an
implementation
date
of
probably
spring
of
2023.
It's
kind
of
a
kind
of
a
long
daunting
process
to
go
through
that
and
learn
all
the
changes
and
then
some
of
the
restrictions
and
changes
that
we
make
to
that
national
code.
D
D
I
have
looked
at
the
preliminaries,
there's
nothing
that
stands
out
if
there
was
a
period
in
time.
D
There's
been,
there
was
a
period
in
time
in
which
we
were
10
years
behind
in
our
code
implementation
and
obviously,
when
we
go
from
the
2003
to
the
15,
there
were
some
substantial
changes,
but
by
keeping
up
where
we
every
other
code
cycle,
we
update,
you
know
we're
only
going
in
a
six
year
process.
The
changes
are
subtle
enough,
where
most
of
them
nothing
I've
seen
so
far,
is
going
to
be
some
big
change
that
that
people
are
going
to.
You
know
really
be
concerned
about.
A
C
Yes,
this
is
a
request
to
rezone
a
five
acre
parcel
on
mantino
lake
road
from
a1
agriculture
to
re
rural
estate.
If
you
look
at
the
the
map
on
the
screen,
the
five
acres
outlined
in
red
is
the
parcel
in
question.
C
In
order
to
do
that,
the
rezoning
would
be
required
as
you
need
20
acres
in
the
a1
agricultural
district.
The
two
properties
directly
to
the
west
are
already
zoned
rural
estates,
so
we
do
have
a
trend
of
rural
estate
in
that
area.
Zoning
board
of
appeals
heard
this
case
on
may
10th
and
voted
four
to
zero
to
recommend
the
approval.
A
Okay,
anyone
have
any
questions
about
that
particular
case.
We
had
the
information
in
the
packet
was
included
with
our
stuff
for
the
meeting
today.
Okay
entertain
a
a
motion
to
approve
mr
smith.
Okay,
second,
miss
bryant.
A
If
we
get
all
in
favor,
say
or
I
in
the
room
and
then
we
get
a
roll
call
and
zoom.
A
Thank
you.
Next
up
is
the
resignation
of
bill,
william
sawyer,
from
the
zoning
board
of
appeals.
I
worked
with
him
several
years
there
he
was
on
there
for
quite
some
time.
A
I
don't
know
how
long
totally
was
there
altogether
from
way
back
till
now
he
was
there
before
and
came
back
and
came
in
and
out
I'd
like
to
thank
him
for
his
time
that
he
came
to
all
those
meetings
on
monday
nights
and
he
was
there
every
time
I
can
say
that
every
meeting
I
was
at
he
was
at
and
he
was
always
had
an
input.
A
A
And
that's
a
monday
night
meeting
once
a
month:
usually
they
don't
go
too
long
until
you
get
solar
farms
and
wind
farms,
and
things
like
that
going
on
takes
a
little
time,
but
it's
good.
So
if
anybody
knows
anybody
interested
in
that
position,
we're
gonna
make
sure
that
we
get
quorums
we
have
to
have.
We
have
to
fill
the
spots
right
away.
Yeah.
C
E
A
So,
like
I
said,
if
anyone
knows
anyone
I'll,
let
delbert
know
her,
give
me
a
call.
Let
me
know
next
up,
we
have
the
historic
preservation
annual
report.
C
C
F
No,
it's
just
a
it's
an
annual
report,
it's
late
because
of
covid,
of
course,
and
it's
just
a
summary
of
what
happened
in
19..
We
did
nominate
three
properties
in
2019.
We
will
not
have
a
report,
probably
for
20.
We
will
probably
combine
20
and
21
due
to
the
fact
that
I
think
they
only
met
once
in
20..
C
Daniel
put
together
a
a
new
application
for
gis
that
works
with
both
our
existing
aerial
photography
and
our
historical
aerial,
photography
and
he'd
like
to
just
demonstrate
that
for
you
and
show
you
where
how
to
get
to
it
on
our
website.
Okay,
okay,
daniel
daniel
you're,
there.
G
All
right,
so
I'm
going
to
start
off
at
the
kankakee
county's
gis
website,
which
is
k3gis.com.
It's
recently
been
updated,
and
this
is
a
landing
page
that
can
direct
you
to
k3
mapper,
the
web
map
that
I've
demonstrated
before
this
committee
before
today.
I'm
going
to
take
you
over
to
the
open
data
hub
that
we
have.
G
This
is
built
to
kind
of
liaison
for
our
geographic
information
users
to
get
data
that
they
need
about
pinky
county,
and
this
will
also
reduce
the
department's
load
on
external
web
servers,
which
will
save
the
department
with
a
considerable
amount
of
money
per
month
once
this
is
fully
up
and
running
and
those
other
servers
are
deemed
redundant,
I'm
just
going
to
scroll
down
and
take
you
to
the
ortho
compare
web
map
on
the
way
you
can
see
this
browse
data
by
category.
G
These
maps
are
designed
to
kind
of
operate,
as
it
says
on
the
tim,
so
we
have
a
disclaimer
here
that
kind
of
directs
the
user
on
how
this
application
works.
This
is
fairly
simple.
G
G
You
need
to
do
this
one
at
a
time,
obviously
to
compare.
You
know
two
years
at
a
time,
so
I'm
going
to
click
through
this
and
just
use
our
2003
imagery
and
you'll
see
why
here
in
a
second
in
2003,
our
ortho
imagery
was
in
black
and
white,
so
I'm
going
to
zoom
in
on.
G
G
G
I'll
make
another
quick
note
that
in
our
oldest
ortho
imagery
from
1999
was
a
selected
area.
Only
the
urbanized
areas
of
kankakee
county
were
collected.
You
can
see
the
the
areas
that
were
included
in
the
1999
ortho
imagery
everything
outside
of
that
remains
the
2020.
C
A
G
A
A
Saw
him
run
out
the
door,
I
didn't
know
we
were
transferred
back
okay,
oh
rural
transportation
update
mr
wilson's
here
them
on.
You
got
the
floor,
sir.
Thank
you,
mr
chairman.
H
Kevin
adjusted
down,
I'm
gonna,
move
it
up
a
little
bit.
Certainly
thank
you.
Thank
you
for
having
me
here
we're
what's
nice
for
for,
for
this
is
so
essentially
this
is
q4
rural
transit
update,
and
so
the
the
the
calendar
year
that
we
work
off
of
is
a
little
different.
So
we
work
off
the
state
calendar,
so
we're
talking
about
july,
1st
being
the
first
day
of
the
year.
H
So
when
we
do
the
april
to
june,
that's
our
that's
our
fourth
quarter
and
that
allows
us
to
get
year
end
numbers.
So
when
we
bring
to
you
the
the
presentation
in
in
may,
typically,
we
have
the
you
know
kind
of
at
the
end
of
your
work,
for
for
the
grant,
so
we
receive
between
the
two
grants.
We
receive
an
allocation
of
about
166
000
for
the
the
section,
5311
federal
transit
and
about
1.
H
million
1.1
million
in
downstate
operating
assistance
program,
and
we
utilize
that-
and
I've
got
a
couple,
quick
numbers
here
for
you
just
to
show
kind
of
what
dollars
we
use
within
that.
For
the
year
end,
we
spent
516
000
of
that
and
that's
broke
down
about
40
40
000
in
admin
expenses
and
then
470
in
operating
expenses,
so
kind
of
for
a
year's
worth
of
transit
cost.
H
Although
we're
receiving
a
grant-
and
I
I'm
just
trying
to
kind
of
make
this
point
clear
to
to
this
group-
and
whenever
we
talk
about
this
program,
we
get
far
more
grant
dollars
than
we're
able
to
utilize,
based
on
on
our
match
and
kind
of
the
the
ridership
that
we
have.
So
we
do
have
some
existing
service
contracts
with
some
local
agencies
that
allow
us
to
use
some
of
their
match.
H
The
county
puts
in
some
of
those
funds
for
matching,
but
kind
of
as
the
system
grows,
it
becomes
more
robust,
we're
able
to
utilize
further
dollars
and-
and
we
would
like
it
to
you-
know-
see
where
we
would
be
able
to
better
leverage
the
grant
you
know,
certainly
in
coming
years,
but
it's
just
something
to
keep
in
mind.
As
the
program
comes
through
so
january,
1st
march
31st,
we
did
5
500
trips,
that
was
a
45
decrease
over
last
year.
H
We're
still
kind
of
feeling
the
pandemic
pinch
and
the
costs
are
still
a
little
higher
than
we
would
like
to
see
them,
because
there
are
areas
where
we're
still
double
busing
in
order
to
offer
the
service
to
the
residents
of
kankakee
county,
we're
still
running,
sometimes
two
buses
to
an
area.
So
that
way
we
can
maybe
put
six
people
on
one
bus.
Where
previously
we'd
have
you
know
13
or
14.
H
You
know
on
a
single
bus
so
and-
and
I
actually
received
a
call
from
one
of
our
board
members
that
just
on
a
kind
of
an
unrelated,
you
know
kind
of
church,
busing
issue
and
as
we
kind
of
work
through
the
moving
of
busing,
I
just
want
when
he
asked
me
that
question.
I
thought
it
may
be
helpful
to
talk
to
this
group.
H
There's
no
set
limit
of
of
number
of
riders
on
a
bus.
If
you
had
a
family
unit
of
14,
you
could
14
people
could
ride
on
a
bus.
If
you
had
five
individuals
who
were
not
within
the
same
family
pod,
then
you
could
get
five
people
on
a
bus
in
order
to
meet
that
that
distance
requirement.
So
it
does,
it
does
range
a
bit
as
to
who
we
can
you
know
how
many
people
we
can
get
on
a
bus
and
there's
not
really
a
hard
and
fast
rule
on
that.
So
it's
it's.
H
It's
cost
us
a
little
more
in
in
the
transit
world
because
we
are
running
those
extra
buses.
Obviously,
if
you
you
made
a
phone
call-
and
I
said
I
have
three
people
I
want
to
take
from
my
house
to
you
know:
go
go
shopping,
we
could
say
well,
if
the
three
of
you
sit
together
great
and
then
you
know,
we
get
a
little
space
between
you
and
we
move
somebody
else
in
there.
So
it
does
fluctuate
a
little
bit,
but
we
are
doing
those
those
double
rides.
H
A
No,
I
had
a
quick
one
ben.
Do
you
know
ahead
of
time
when
people
need
rise,
you
call
ahead.
You
said
you
were
just
saying
that
you
could
call
ahead.
If
you
had
a
family,
they
had
to
go
somewhere
yeah.
So
I
know
a
lot
of
people.
Don't
know
that
so
yeah.
H
So
the
so
the
the
county,
rural
transit
system
kind
of,
has
two
two
pieces
to
it.
We
run
a
bus
on
the
hour
every
hour
from
the
city
of
kankakee
through
sun
river
terrace
to
moments,
and
that
takes
takes
two
buses,
because
it's
about
75
minute
round
trip,
so
we're
able
to
kind
of
double
the
buses
up
for
that,
but
that
allows
people
to
get
back
and
forth
to
kind
of
the
eastern
job
hub.
H
We
stop
at
three
or
four
locations
within
moments
for
pick
up
and
drop
off,
and
it
is
obviously
busier
at
the
beginning.
You
know
before
the
start
of
a
shift
and
and
after
the
end
of
a
shift,
but
we
do
run
that
at
all
times
of
the
day
and
in
the
event
somebody
would
need
a
ride
back
home.
You
get
a
call
from
the
school,
the
kid's
sick.
H
You
can
hop
back
on
and
come
come
back
to
to
home,
which
works
really
well
for
that,
and
then
we
have
a
dial
rider
service.
So
this
is
for
anybody
within
the
I
would
say,
within
the
county
outside
of
the
urbanized
area,
can
can
call
our
service
and
ask
for
a
ride
to
go
to
anything
public
transportation,
and
I
know
that
people
think
about
access
to
grocery
and
access
to
health
care,
but
it's
important
for
people
to
remember
that
this
is
just
rides
if
you
want
to
ride.
H
If,
if
I
drop
my
car
off
at
the
car
dealership
to
get
to
get
an
oil
change,
if
I
go,
you
know
drop
it
off
a
tailor.
I
typically
walk
down
and
hop
on
a
bus
and
transfer
over
at
the
mall
and
get
a
ride
right
in
front
of
target
there
and
hop
off
the
bus.
So
anybody
can
ride
it
for
any
reason,
and
right
now
we're
you
know,
drivers
are
still
wiping
buses
down
we're
still,
you
know
attempting
to
be
safe.
H
We
did
just
recently
received
the
new
mandate
through
the
governor's
office
on
mask
or
no
mass,
but
transit
still
applies
wearing
a
mask
on
the
bus.
It's
just
the
safe
way
to
do
it,
but
yeah
we're
we're
seeing
some
changes,
and
I
think
that
hopefully,
with
the
recent
conversation
around
kind
of
getting
a
little
more
back
to
normal,
we'll
see
more
ridership.
So,
okay.
A
H
It's
it's
so
what's
what
is
convenient
the
way
the
so
the
federal
transit
dollars,
an
allocation
kind
of
based
on
population,
so
that
adjusts
what
the
decennial
census,
the
downstate
operating
assistance
program
dope
program
that
we
work
on
is
actually
we
receive
an
allocation
and
I
think,
there's
a
federal
or
a
state
mandate
of
a
10
increase
annually,
so
it
just
kind
of
rolls
into
the
10
and
but
again
as
an
as
a
rural
system,
it's
a
little
harder
for
us
to
use
the
dollars
we're.
H
Actually
our
mandate
is
tied
to
percentage
of
particular
activities.
So
we
can.
We
can
pay
a
certain
percentage
of
an
admin
activity.
We
can
pay
a
certain
percentage
of
an
operating
activity
to
to
offer
those
rides,
and
so
that's
that's
how
our
grant
is
limited,
not
necessarily
by
how
many
riders
we
offer
rides
to.
But
what
the?
