ATTACHMENT B
Supplemental Procedures for Rezonings of Designated Industrial Corridors
The applicant proposes to rezone property located in the North Branch Industrial Corridor from an Ml-2 Limited Manufacturing/Business Park District to C'2-2 Motor Vehicle - Related Commercial District. Therefore, pursuant to the 2004 amendment to the Chicago Zoning Ordinance this zoning map amendment application is subject to hearings before the Chicago Plan Commission. As background, retail uses were established at the three-building campus in 1996 pursuant to a special use resolution of the Zoning Board of Appeals which granted approval for retail uses in Planned Manufacturing District No. 1, Buffer Zone, Subsequently, on 7/26/2017 the Chicago City Council abolished PMD No. 1 in its entirety and rezoned the subject property to Ml-2. No industrial or manufacturing uses have occurred at the subject for over 23 years and since well before 1996. The immediate prior uses of the subject site were a hardware store, a lumber yard and a hot dog stand.
Factors to be considered:
1. Would the proposed rezoning adversely affect the continued industrial viability of the industrial corridor? No. As stated above, the proposed rezoning will result in the zoning map reflecting the retail type uses which have been in place at this location for over 23 years. Further, there are no industrial uses in close proximity to the subject site.
17-13-0403 Review and Decision-Making Criteria. In reviewing and making decisions on proposed zoning map amendments within industrial corridors, review bodies and decisionmaking bodies must consider the criteria established in Sec. 17-13-0308 as well as whether the proposed rezoning would adversely affect the continued industrial viability of the industrial corridor. With respect to industrial viability, review bodies and decision-making bodies must consider the following factors:
17-13-0403-A the size of the district; The size of the district is irrelevant as the existing retail use has been in place for 23 years.
17-13-0403-B the number of existing firms and employees that would be affected; No industrial jobs will be affected as there are none at the subject site.
17-13-0403-C recent and planned public and private investments within the district; The. applicant is unaware of any recent or planned public or private industrial investment within this area of the district.
17-13-0403-D the potential of the district to support additional industrial uses and increased manufacturing employment; The potential of the district to support additional industrial uses or increased manufacturing employment is exceedingly low as there are no industrial or manufacturing uses in the vicinity of the site.
17-13-0403-E the proportion of land in the district currently devoted to industrial uses; No portion of the subject site is currently devoted to industrial uses.
17-13-0403-F the proportion of land in the district currently devoted to non-manufacturing uses; All of the land in the this part of the district is currently devoted to non-manufacturing uses.
24666989.3
17-13-0403-G the area's importance to the city as an industrial district. This area of the city is unimportant as an industrial district as there is no industrial activity at or near the subject site.
17-13-0308-A whether the proposed rezoning is consistent with any plans for the area that have been adopted by the Plan Commission or approved by the City Council: The proposed project is wholly consistent with the North Branch Framework Plan, adopted by the Chicago Plan Commission in May, 2017 to promote economic activity. The subject site was removed from Planned Manufacturing District No. 1. The land use of the subject site is retail and has been so without interruption since 1997.
