PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO RESIDENTIAL PLANNED DEVELOPMENT, NO. 546

ALDERMAN MARGARET LAURINO

5225 N. RIVERSEDGE TERRACE

Pursuant to the provisions of the Chicago Zoning Ordinance, Title 17 of the Municipal Code of Chicago, the Department of Planning and Development hereby submits this report and recommendation on a proposed amendment to Residential Planned Development Number 546 for your review and recommendation to the Chicago City Council. The application for this amendment to the Chicago Zoning Ordinance was introduced into the City Council on September 24, 2015. Notice of this public hearing was published in the Chicago Sun-Times on November 4, 2015. The Applicant was separately notified of this hearing.

The Applicant, 39th Ward Alderman Margaret Laurino, proposes a technical amendment to reclassify the above referenced property from Residential Planned Development Number 546 to Residential Planned Development Number 546, as amended. The purpose ofthe amendment is to increase the floor area ofthe planned development from .85 to .87. The floor area is being increased in order to develop the four remaining single-family home lots in keeping with the size and character ofthe rest ofthe single family homes in the development. There are no further changes proposed to the planned development.

SITE AND AREA DESCRIPTION

Residential Planned Development Number 546, approximately twelve acres in size, is generally bounded by Sauganash Woods and the St. Luke and Montrose Cemeteries on the north, LaBagh Woods on the west, a commercial development that fronts Pulaski Road on the east and Gompers Park on the south with West Foster Avenue just beyond.

The site is neither within an Industrial Corridor nor within a Tax Increment Financing District. It is not located within a Chicago Landmark District nor is any property within the planned development a Landmark or rated "Orange" on the Chicago Historical

|1010|
Resources Survey. The site is served by several buses operated by the Chicago Transit Authority ("CTA") including numbers CTA Bus Route Numbers 53 and 92.


BACKGROUND AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Residential Planned Development Number 546 was originally passed by the City Council of the City of Chicago on March 23, 1994. The planned development
pf-intQmnjgtpH hofh nr. ilti-fsmilv units and p.innlp family homfi lots for a total of 280
dwelling units on an approximately twelve acre site. To date, the 260 dwelling units have been built in the four multi-family residential buildings and sixteen (16) single-family homes have been built.
Four single-family home lots remain undeveloped in the planned development, two lots on West Summerdale Avenue and two lots on North Lowell Avenue. However, the floor area that remains, approximately 4,500 square feet, wouid allow for much smaller single-family homes that already exist in the planned development. The average size of the currently built properties is approximately 3,000 square feet where the remaining floor area today would allow homes of approximately 1,100 square feet.
As the planned development was adopted with the intent that the single-family homes would be similar in character to one another, the Applicant proposes to increase the floor area allowed in the planned development just slightly from .85 to .87. The planned development would further stipulate that approximately 3,000 square feet of floor area will be allotted to each of the four remaining lots to maintain the character of the development.


LANDSCAPING AND SITE CIRCULATION
The planned development adopted a landscape plan that the developers of the four remaining lots will need to adhere to as well as the other parameters called for in the original planned development, ii shouid be noted that a conservation easement that was called for in planned development on the south side of Berwyn and Lowell Avenues and north of that section of Gompers Park that is north of Foster Avenue. The developers executed the conservation easement with the Chicago Park District in April of 1995 and it remains in place today. The site circulation will remain the same with entrances to the development off of Foster Avenue. The four remaining single-family home lots will need to add driveways off of Summerdale Avenue and Lowell Avenue, but no other changes to circulation are proposed with this amendment. The traffic signal just to the east for the shopping center off of Foster Avenue has been added as called for in the planned development.


|1010|
USE, BULK AND DENSITY
The uses and density of the planned development will remain unchanged in this amendment. The only change proposed is an increase in floor area from .85 to .87, which is less than the underlying zoning of the planned development of an RT4, which allows up to a 1.2 floor area ratio.
RECOMMENDATION
The Department of Planning and Development has reviewed the project materials submitted by the applicant and has concluded that the proposed amendment to Residential Planned Development Number 546 would be appropriate for the following reasons:
The project meets the criteria and objectives for Planned Developments as set forth in Section 17-13-0600 ofthe Zoning Ordinance and its adoption would not have any adverse impact on the public's health, safety, or welfare.
The proposed amendment would be increase the floor area ratio from .85 to .87, which is well below the underlying RT4 zoning district that was the zoning district immediately prior to instituting the planned development in 1994. The increase in floor area is the only change made to the bulk and density criteria ofthe planned development.
The proposed development is compatible with the character of the surrounding area in terms of uses, density and building scale.
The purpose of the amendment to the planned development is to allow for the development of the remaining four single-family home lots in keeping with the character of the existing homes in terms of uses, density and building scale. The approximately 3,000 square feet of floor area that would be allocated to each of the four lots would be close to the average size home in the development of approximately 3,000 square feet.
The public infrastructure facilities and city services will be adequate to serve the proposed development at the time of occupancy.
The proposed Planned Development has been reviewed by the Chicago Department of Transportation as well as other city agencies and all requested changes have been made. The Department of Planning and Development has circulated copies of this application to other City departments and agencies and no comments have been received which have not been addressed in the revised application.

|1010|
Based on the forgoing, it is the recommendation from the Department of Planning and Development that the proposed amendment to Residential Planned Development Number 546 be approved and that the recommendation to the City Council Committee on Zoning, Landmarks and Building Standards be as revised, passage recommended.
