  4. Grantor is willing to grant such easements to Grantee and to impose such restrictions in connection therewith as further set forth below.

Grantor shall have the one time right to hereafter change the location of the easement over Parcel A created hereby to another path to be selected by Grantor in its reasonable but sole discretion, provided such path shall be convenient and sufficient to provide the pedestrian and vehicular access described above. Grantor and Grantee agree to prepare and record an amendment hereto describing such amended path of the easement as the "Easement Area," whereupon all of the easements granted herein shall apply and be limited to said "Easement Area."
  3. Grantor (and its successors in interest) may also use the Easement Area for access for any and all dwelling units on Parcel A in the manner as permitted to Grantee (and its successors), but for no other use. Grantor may establish, however, reasonable rules and regulations for the use

  1. construct a temporary and permanent paved roadway ("Pavement Area") on the Easement Area for the use and enjoyment of the easements herein granted;
  2. keep the Pavement Area in good repair and condition, providing all maintenance, repairs and replacement; and
  3. promptly remove all snow and ice accumulations from the Pavement Area.

PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO RESIDENTIAL PLANNED DEVELOPMENT No. 826
 
APPLICANT:

LOCATION:
 
6601 - 6653 NORTH KEDZIE AVENUE; 3046 - 3154 WEST ALBION AVENUE;
  1. - 3054 WEST WALLEN AVENUE (private); and
  2. - 3055 WEST WALLEN AVENUE (private); CHICAGO, ILLINOIS
 
 
Pursuant to the provisions of the Chicago Zoning Ordinance, Title 17 of the Municipal Code of Chicago, the Department of Housing and Economic Development hereby submits this report and recommendation on a proposed amendment to Residential Planned Development No. 826 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 October 31, 2012. Notice of the public hearing was published in the Chicago Sun-Times on December 5, 2012. The applicant was separately notified of this public hearing.
 
The application proposes to amend Residential Planned Development No. 826, located in the West Ridge Community on the City's Far North Side. The application proposes to amend the Planned Development to require administrative site plan approval for development of Subarea A, add Townhouse to the permitted uses on Lots 14 -18 of Subarea B and adjust the required setbacks in Subarea B to conform to the pattern of existing development.
 
BACKGROUND AND AREA DESCRIPTION
Residential Planned Development No. 826 was approved by the Chicago City Council May 1, 2002. The approximately 7.01-acre site lies at the northeast corner of North Kedzie Avenue and West Albion Avenue. The aL@ shaped site is bounded on the west by North Kedzie Avenue, on the south by West Albion Avenue, on the east by a public alley and on the north by a Peoples Gas facility.
 
 
 
 
Page 1 of 3
 
 
To the south and east of the site are single family houses except for the frontage along Kedzie Avenue which includes townhouses and small apartment buildings. North of the site is the CPS' new West Ridge Elementary School, and north ofthe Peoples Gas facility is a former grocery store which has been converted into a private school and a residential development with 40 single-family houses. On the north side of Pratt Avenue is the Winston Towers condominium development (RPD No.11) which consists of five 14 to 16-story buildings and a series of townhouses. Within easy walking distance of the site are two public parks - Chippewa Park to the east and Lerner Park to the north. The west side of N. Kedzie Avenue is the North Shore Channel with adjacent open space which is located in suburban Lincolnwood.
 
The 2002 Planned Development divided the site into two subareas, Subarea B (approximately 5.28 acres) at the corner of N. Kedzie Avenue and W. Albion Avenue and Subarea A (approximately 1.82 acres) to the north, fronting on N. Kedzie Avenue. The 2002 plan called for 38 townhouses on Subarea A and 36 single-family detached houses on Subarea B. In addition, 33 feet along the W. Albion Avenue frontage was to be dedicated to the City for the widening of W. Albion Avenue from 33 feet to 66 feet, and a 50-foot wide private street (W. Wallen Avenue) was to be constructed through the middle of Subarea B. Both of these street improvements have been made.
 
On September 27, 2007, the Planned Development was amended. On Subarea A, it reduced the number of townhouses from 38 to 14 and added a five-story senior building with 150 units. On Subarea B, the number of single-family detached houses was reduced from 36 to 24, and 59 townhouses were added.
 
By summer 2012, none of the housing contemplated by the 2007 Planned Development amendment had been constructed except for thirteen single-family detached houses. Therefore, on July 25, 2012, the City Council approved an ordinance introduced by Alderman Debra L. Silverstein (50th Ward) to repeal the 2007 amendment to Residential Planned Development No. 826 and reinstate the original 2002 Planned Development.
 
PROPOSAL DESCRIPTION
The application proposes to amend Residential Planned Development No. 826 as approved May 1, 2002, to allow up to 36 single-family detached and/or townhouse units in Subarea A subject to administrative site plan approval.
 
ln Subarea B, the amendment would restrict development to a maximum of 49 residential units. Single-family detached houses would be permitted on all lots; Lots 14 -18 could also be developed with townhouses. The amendment would require all housing to front on W. Wallen Avenue (private) with driveway access from W. Albion Avenue, the alley east of N. Kedzie Avenue, or private alleys along the north side of Subarea B. To ensure development consistent with that already in place, the proposed amendment would require a minimum front setback of 15' on the north side of W. Wallen Avenue (private) and would require a front setback on the south side of W. Wallen Avenue (private) of no less than 10' and no more than 11'.
 
 
 
Page 2 of 3
 
 
Unless otherwise specified in the proposed amendment, development of single-family detached houses in Subarea A would be subject to the requirements of the RS3 Residential Single-Family Detached District and development of single-family detached houses in Subarea B would be subject to the requirements of the RT4 Residential Two-Flat, Townhouse and Multi-Unit District. Townhouse development in both subareas would be controlled by the townhouse requirements ofthe Zoning Code (ยง17-2-0500).
 
RECOMMENDATION
The Department of Housing and Economic Development has reviewed the project materials submitted by the applicant and has concluded that the proposed amendment to Residential Planned Development No. 826 would be appropriate for the site for the following reasons:
  1. The project meets the criteria and objectives set forth in Section 17-13-0900 of the Zoning Ordinance and its adoption would not have any adverse impact on the public's health, safety, or welfare.
  2. The maximum Floor Area Ratio (FAR) of 1.03 is a reduction from the 1.32 FAR permitted in the 2002 Planned Development. The maximum permitted number of residential units is increased from 74 to 85, but is remains far below the 309 units permissible under the RT4 Residential Two-Flat, Townhouse and Multi-Unit base zoning district.
  3. The proposed amended Planned Development is compatible with the character of the surrounding area in terms of uses, density and building scale.
  4. The standards and procedures set forth in the amended Planned Development should facilitate a smoother, yet compatible, development of the site.
 
Based on the foregoing, it is the recommendation of the Department of Housing and Economic Development that the revised application for an amended Residential Planned Development be approved and that the recommendation to the City Council Committee on Zoning, Landmarks and Building Standards be: "As Revised, Passage Recommended."
