REPORT & RECOMMENDATION:
APPROVAL OF A ZONING VARIATION FOR CASE NO. 2020-CDC-03 TO ALLOW PARKING LOT IMPROVEMENTS AND A FAÇADE IMPROVEMENT GRANT
DISCUSSION:
Director Cage reported the first variance went to CDC earlier this year, and the second portion is for the façade improvement part. The CDC found it does meet the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. No change in use is being requested so there will be no physical changes or setbacks. The parking lot requests were reviewed as well as the proposed landscape plan. Parking exceeds the code, but leaves limited area for landscaping.
As far as the Façade Improvement Program, Director Cage showed the proposed elevation and noted the applicant worked out details with the other property owner. The applicant is also proposing a dumpster enclosure. Eligible expenses were reviewed along with the breakdown of the costs with three quotes. Since the applicant met all criteria, he qualified for the 50% total reimbursable amount allowed. They will also be eliminating one curb cut off of Irving Park Rd.
VOTE:
Ald. Jakab made a motion, seconded by Ald. E. Wesley, to approve a Zoning Variation for Case No. 2020-CDC-03, to Allow Parking Lot Improvements for the subject property located at 414- 420 & 422 E Irving Park Rd for D’ Astis Partners. A roll call vote was taken with the following results:
