Page 34 of 87 2. What is the Process? • Upon receipt of a complete application, the Zoning Department contacts the applicant via phone and with a letter detailing the next steps in the process • The City publishes a notice of the hearing in a locally circulating newspaper, generally the Evanston Review, between 15 and 30 working days prior to a hearing; • The City posts a sign announcing the date of the Zoning Board of Appeals hearing on the subject property no less than 10 working days before the hearing date; • The City must mail notification of the public hearing and an overview of the proposed application to all properties that are within 500' of any point on the subject property; • The project is heard before the Site Plan Appearance and Review Committee (SPAARC). This committee provides a recommendation to the Zoning Board of Appeals. This committee is made up of representatives from City departments such as Building, Police, Fire and Preservation. A representative of your project must attend. The committee meets every Wednesday at 2:30 at the Civic Center, room 2404. • The Zoning Board of Appeals is a City Board made up of 7 members. You will present your case to the Board, who in turn will ask you questions to assist in their deliberation. Further, anyone in opposition may present their case and ask questions of you (as you may to them). It takes 4 yes votes to approve a submitted application. • The City encourages all applicants to discuss their proposal with their neighbors prior to the public hearing. 3. What standards are used to decide? (§6-3-8-12(A)): To grant a major variance, the Zoning Board of Appeals must find that the request meets the following 7 standards: 1. The requested variation will not have a substantial adverse impact on the use, enjoyment or property values of adjoining properties. 2. The requested variation is in keeping with the intent of the zoning ordinance. 3. The alleged hardship or practical difficulty is peculiar to the property. 4. The property owner would suffer a particular hardship or practical difficulty as distinguished from a mere Inconvenience if the strict letter of the regulations were to be carried out. 5. (a) The purpose of the variation is not based exclusively upon a desire to extract additional income from the property, or (b) While the granting of the variation will result in additional income to the applicant and while the applicant for the variation may not have demonstrated that the application is not based exclusively upon a desire to extract additional income from the property, the zoning board of appeals or the city council, depending on final jurisdiction under section 6-3-8-2 of this chapter, has found that public benefits to the surrounding neighborhood and the city as a whole will be derived from approval of the variation, that include, but are not limited to, any of the standards of section 6-3-6-3 of this chapter. 6. The alleged difficulty or hardship has not been created by any person having an interest in the property. 7. The requested variation requires the least deviation from the applicable regulation among the feasible options identified before the Zoning Board of Appeals issues its decision or recommendation to the City Council regarding said variation. 4. Can I Appeal? An applicant may appeal the decision of the Zoning Board of Appeals to the Illinois Circuit Court.

Solution 1: Our team has modified the original plan to increase parking capacity from 28 exposed to 39 covered spots for residents and guests to utilize. With 39 available parking spots, we will not be seeking any parking relief or variances. Neighborhood Response Cont. Traffic Congestion: The feedback we received after attending the February 11 t" meeting of the 2nd Ward showed a concern for an increase of traffic congestion especially during school opening and dismissal hours. Solution: The target demographic that will be occupying these apartments are working 30-50 years old. Currently, most employees are working remote which will limit traffic congestion. Once employees begin returning to the office, majority our tenants will be leaving the complex by 7:OOAM and returning after 5:OOPM. These time slots will not conflict with the 8:OOAM — 2:40PM school hours and should have little to no affect on traffic congestion.

Map Amendment and Major Variations 2030 Greenwood Street 1PLND-0001 & 21ZMJV-0019 Bojan Arnautovic, applicant, submits for a Zoning Ordinance Map Amendment pursuant to City Code Title 6, Zoning, to rezone property located at 2030 Page 1 of 5 Plan Commission Minutes 3.24.21 Page 83 of 87 DRAFT- NOT APPROVED Greenwood Street from the 12 General Industrial District to the MXE Mixed Use Employment District. Applicant also requests major variations for the following: 24 total dwelling units (20 regular units + 4 NO bonus units) where 18 dwelling units (22 with NO bonus units) are permitted (Zoning Code Section 6-13-4-4), and building height of 4 stories at 38' where 3 stories at 41' is permitted (Zoning Code Section 6-13-4-7). The Zoning Board of Appeals and Plan Commission make a recommendation to City Council, the determining body for this case. Mr. Josh Gross provided an overview of the proposal, specifying the number of units spread between two buildings, public benefits, the site plan, and building details. He also emphasized that there will be two Inclusionary Housing Units and two ADA accessible units. Apartment sizes will range from 650 s.f. to 1,250 s.f. and rents will be $2.00 - $2.25/s.f. The building will be eco-friendly and energy efficient. Ms. Jones provided an overview of the map amendment proposed as part of the applicant's proposal providing a comparison of the existing and proposed districts. The hearing was then open to questions from the Board and Commission Commissioner Halik inquired how the tandem parking will operate. Mr. Gross explained the parking placement and that he anticipates the parking provided will be sufficient for the number of units proposed. Chair Cullen asked if the spaces are for rent and what will happen if one space is rented and the tandem space is open. Mr. Gross responded that parking spaces are assigned so that residents have a specific 2 spaces in order to avoid one vehicle blocking in another. Board Member Zordan inquired about parking for ADA accessible units and if there will be guest parking for them. Mr. Gross explained that the guest parking space is adjacent to the proposed ADA parking space location. Commissioner Halik referenced the DAPR comments and for clarification on the current unit count and mix. Mr. Gross explained that the economics of the project lead to the proposed unit count and mix. Commissioner Isaac asked for clarification on the subdivided lot. Mr. Sterling clarified that subdivisions must be zoning compliant and this lot meets zoning requirements. Commissioner Westerberg asked if staff had any concerns for removing the parcel from the 12 Zoning District. Ms. Jones responded that staff did not have concerns removing this parcel from that district due to the surrounding zoning district classifications and uses and added that there are variety of uses currently seen in the 12 district that are not strictly manufacturing. Board Member Putchel inquired about sustainability aspects of the project stating concerns of the open space being turned into a building and trees coming down. Mr. Gross Page 2 of 5 Plan Commission Minutes 3.24.21 Page 84 of 87 DRAFT- NOT APPROVED responded that there is open space, additional trees and a monetary contribution to the City for new trees proposed as part of the development, the building will also be high efficiency. Board Member Putchel inquired about the eastern landscaping and the response to Forestry's concerns regarding the existing trees. Mr. Gross responded that some trees will be retained and some additional trees and landscaping provided. Mr. Sterling stated that there is a utility easement in this portion of the lot. Commissioner Halik asked if there was consideration of using permeable pavers. Mr. Gross stated this would be considered and discussed. Board Member Zordan asked if waste removal and deliveries will be conducted on Greenwood Street. Mr. Gross responded, describing the onsite waste area and stated that the goal is for deliveries to occur within the drive aisle and move along that area. Board Member Zordan then inquired how many on -street parking spaces would be lost. Mr. Gross responded approximately 3 spaces. Chair Cullen asked if a Construction Management Plan had been done. Mr. Gross responded that this is in the works. The hearing was then open to questions and comments from the public. Ms. Nicolette stated that the area is dense when students are going to and from school, 8- 9 AM and 3-5 PM and permit parking is needed due to lack of parking. The proposal is too dense and will lead to gentrification. The site is also a sinkhole. Mr. Gross responded that there are 39 parking spaces for 24 apartments which is 13 more space than what is required. There will likely be ab older population within the building who would leave prior to 7 AM and return after work hours and the travel patter will be opposite that of the high school. All applications for tenants will be read. The applicant's civil/structural engineer will be utilized to alleviate water drainage issues. Jovann Bransom stated that the proposed building is dwarfing the residences across the street, that the block is dark and asked if potential renters will be screened. Mr. Gross responded that potential renters will be screened and explained that the proposed building at the front of the property is set back 25 ft. from the street an should not cast much of a shadow across the street. It is also in -line with the neighboring building. Ms. Bransom expressed demographic concerns and if new residence will look like existing residents. Mr. Gross explained that he cannot discriminate based on race or gender. Renters must pass a background check and be able to afford the units. Mr. Arnautovic explained that he is the developer and will be at the building every day. Ms. Tanny Terrell expressed that she has concerns anytime there is rental. Owners tend to show pride in properties, centers do not. She then expressed concerns with parking and Page 3 of 5 Plan Commission Minutes 3.24.21 Page 85 of 87 DRAFT- NOT APPROVED stated that long standing residents will have to deal with renters and their guests inundating Greenwood Street. Mr. Gross responded that he understands the concerns and explained that the developers are owners and intend to be good neighbors. He cannot speak for renters but the developers care about this issue. Mr. Arnautovic clarified that he is also the management company for the proposed building. Mr. Lonnie Parker stated he owns the building to the west of this site. He mentioned that there have been a number of changes made to the proposal including saving some landscaping and moving the building away from the adjacent property. He expressed concerns that the building will block views from his building and provided parking is not realistic, mentioning that every adult in his building has a car. There are 27 units and 50 parking spaces so it is low impact. He added that heated parking spaces should be looked into for the proposal and inquired why the proposed balconies were not placed on the opposite site of the building. Commissioner Isaac asked for clarification on continuance requests. Ms. Jones responded that for map amendments, continuances are not offered as a request. Plan Commission then entered deliberation. Commissioner Isaac stated that the proposed change would match the existing zoning to the immediate west. Commissioner Lindwall added that the MXE zoning opens the area up to uses that are more compatible for the area.
