7.  Planning Commission:

     a. Rezoning Request for Wasco Railway Center – Requested Return:  Scott Trotter of Trotter and Assoc. presented for the developer, Tab Construction.  When they presented to the Plan Commission two nights ago the two buildings’ areas totaled 39,000 square feet.  Tonight at the Board meeting it is reduced to 36,000 square feet, with one building retail, and one building office.  For other options on ingress and egress to the site per the previous Board motion, KDOT (Kane County Department of Transportation) has no changes since last meeting.  That is, no access from Wasco Road onto Burlington Road at this time. Regarding the previous Board motion asking for a pedestrian crossing analysis at Route 64 and Wasco Road, the Board’s request that a pedestrian crossing be placed at Wasco Road and Route 64 was rejected by IDOT (Illinois Department of Transportation), for now.  The developer proposes a connection from the bike trail to the intersection of Route 64 and Burlington Road where there is a traffic light.  Per Board’s previous motion regarding information on WSD’s (Wasco Sanitary District) ability to provide 11 pe to the site, it will not be necessary to provide 11 pe.  The previously stated 8 pe will be adequate, per a letter from the District engineer.  The developer and Forest Preserve have agreed to bend the bike path to meet Wasco Road at right angles for pedestrian safety.  J. Morgan of the Plan Commission stated in the developers presentation to the Plan Commission two nights ago there were few changes from the proposal made in March.  The geometry of the bike trail crossing at Wasco Road was improved, but the amount of permitted uses of the site and the traffic they generate was not addressed.  The Plan Commission voted three to one to discourage the rezoning request.  A. Koppenhofer moved the Board adopt the Plan Commission’s recommendation to discourage the rezoning request.  J. Kupar seconded the motion.  In a roll call vote Trustees Kupar, Koppenhofer, and Stutesman voted aye.  Supervisor Anderson voted no.  Trustee Judy was absent.  The motion passed.
