If a planned development is subject to the requirements of both sections (2-45-110 and the former 17-4-1004-D), the developer may elect to satisfy the AHO requirements by complying with the affordable housing floor area bonus provided for in Section 17-4-1004. Applicant has elected to comply with Section 17-4-1004. Pursuant to Section 17-4-1004-B of the Zoning Ordinance, the Applicant has requested an increase in the floor area ratio for the Property, as set forth in the bonus worksheet required under the former Section 17-4-1003-D and attached hereto as Exhibit A ("Bonus Worksheet").

Prior to the issuance of any building permits for the Eligible Building, including, without limitation, excavation or foundation permits, the Applicant must either make the FOR required Cash Payment or provide a performance bond or other security in the amount of the Cash Payment ensuring construction of the Affordable Units. If the Applicant elects to construct the Affordable Units, it must also enter into an Affordable Housing Agreement with the City pursuant to the former Section 17-4-1004-129 prior to the issuance of any building permits for the Eligible Building, including, without limitation, excavation or foundation permits. The terms of the Affordable Housing Agreement and any amendments thereto are incorporated herein by this reference. The Applicant acknowledges and agrees that the Affordable Housing Agreement will be recorded against the Eligible Building and will constitute a lien against each Affordable Unit in an amount equal to the Pro Rata Amount. The City shall execute partial releases of the Affordable Housing Agreement prior to or at the time of the sale of each Affordable Unit to an income-eligible buyer at an affordable price, subject to the simultaneous execution and recording of a mortgage, restrictive covenant or similar instrument against such Affordable Unit. In addition to the Affordable Housing Agreement, the Applicant acknowledges and agrees that, pursuant to the former Section 17-4-1003-D3, the Bonus Worksheet will serve as an official record of bonuses and amenities. The Applicant must comply with the applicable affordable housing standards and requirements set forth in the former Section 17-4-1004, the terms of which are incorporated herein by this reference. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the former Section 17-4-1003-E, the Commissioner of the Department of Planning and Development may enforce remedies for breach of the Affordable Housing Agreement, and enter into settlement agreements with respect to any such breach, subject to the approval of the Corporation Counsel, without amending the Planned Development. If this Planned Development does not receive City Council approval by July 13, 2016, the project will be subject to Section 2-45-115 of the Municipal Code (the "2015 ARO"). In such event, the Applicant shall meet with the Department of Planning and Development to determine the application of the 2015 ARO to the project, and the 2015 ARO requirements will replace and supersede the affordability requirements of this Section. Upon review and determination, "Part II Review", pursuant to Section 17-13-0610 of the Zoning Ordinance, a Part II Review Fee shall be assessed by the Department of Housing and Economic Development. The fee, as determined by staff at the time, is final and binding on the Applicant and must be paid to the Department of Revenue prior to the issuance of any Part II approval. The Site and Landscape Plans shall be in substantial conformance with the Landscape Ordinance and any other corresponding regulations and guidelines. Final landscape plan review and approval will be by the Department of Planning and Development. Any interim reviews associated with site plan review or Part II reviews, are conditional until final Part II approval. 12.

The terms and conditions of development under this Planned Development ordinance may be modified administratively, pursuant to section 17-13-0611-A of the Zoning Ordinance by the Zoning Administrator upon the application for such a modification by the Applicant, its successors and assigns and, if different than the Applicant, the legal title holders and any ground lessors.

The. Applicant acknowledges that it is in the public interest to design, construct, renovate and maintain all buildings in a manner that provides healthier indoor environments, reduces operating costs and conserves energy and natural resources.

This Planned Development shall be governed by Section 17-13-0612 of the Zoning Ordinance.

LOCATION: 111-119 SOUTH PEORIA STREET; 110-120 SOUTH GREEN
STREET
FOR APPROVAL: 1) REZONING FROM DS-3 (DOWNTOWN SERVICE DISTRICT)
to DX-5 (DOWNTOWN MIXED-USE DISTRICT); and 2) ESTABLISHMENT of a RESIDENTIAL PLANNED DEVELOPMENT
INTRO DATE: SEPTEMBER 24, 2015
PD THRESHOLD: ELECTIVE PLANNED DEVELOPMENT - AT LEAST 50% OF THE
HEIGHT THRESHOLD OF 130' IN A DX-5 ZONING DISTRICT (123') (SECTION 17-8-0600-C)
PROJECT SUMMARY
The project consists of the development of a 123' residential building (nine stories plus penthouse) with 79 dwelling units and 94 enclosed parking spaces on an approximately 27,740 square foot site.

The site would be rezoned from DS-3 to DX-5 prior to establishing the proposed Residential Planned Development. (See Exhibits)
BULK/USES/DENSITY
The PD would cap the FAR for the project at 6.0 which includes the base FAR of 5.0 plus 1.0 FAR from the Affordable Housing Bonus. The PD would allow for residential and accessory parking uses. The Minimum Lot Area (MLA) for the project is 351. (See Attached Bulk Table)

PROPOSED RENDERING
RECOMMENDATION
The Department of Planning and Development has reviewed the project materials submitted by the Applicant and compared this proposal to existing development in the community. The area around this project consists of a mix of downtown zoning districts and planned developments and the project represents an opportunity to construct a compatible residential infill project along South Peoria/South Green Streets in Chicago's Near West Side Community Area.
Based on that analysis, the Department of Planning and Development has concluded that this proposal is appropriate for this site and supports this development for the following reasons:
1. The proposed rezoning of the subject property is appropriate under Chapter 17-13 of the Zoning Ordinance. Specifically, the proposed DX-5 underlying zoning classification and or the project is 1) consistent with plans for the area, including the Central Area Action Plan (17-13-0308-A); 2) appropriate because of growth and
|1010|
FINAL
development trends (17-13-0308-B); 3) compatible with the character of the surrounding area in terms of uses, density and building scale (17-13-0308-C), and; 4) compatible with surrounding zoning districts (17-13-0308-D).
The project meets the purpose and criteria set forth in Chapter 17-8 of the Zoning Ordinance and its adoption would not have any adverse impact on the public's health, safety or welfare. Specifically, this project meets the following provisions of Chapter 17-8:
Promotes economically beneficial development patterns that are compatible with the character of existing neighborhoods (per 17-8-0103), as evidenced through the project's design and massing keeping within the context of adjacent structures;
Promotes green design by conserving non-renewable energy and scarce materials (per 17-8-0908-A) as evidenced by the proposed green roof; and,
All sides and areas of the buildings that are visible to the public are treated with materials, finishes and architectural details that are of high-quality and appropriate for use on primary street-facing facade (17-8-0907-A-4), as evidenced through the material callouts in this report and on the elevations.
The project has been reviewed and approved by CDOT, MOPD and the Fire Department.
Based on the foregoing, it is the recommendation of the Department of Planning and Development that this application for a Residential Planned Development be approved and that the recommendation to the City Council Committee on Zoning, Landmarks and Building Standards be "Passage Recommended".
