NOW THEREFORE, Be It Ordained by the President and Board of Trustees of the Village of Orland Park, Cook and Will Counties, Illinois, as follows:
SECTION 1
The Plan Commission of this Village has made its report of findings and recommendations regarding the proposed special use. The findings of the Plan Commis-sion are herein incorporated by reference as the findings of this Presi-dent and Board of Trustees, as completely as if fully recited herein at length. All exhibits submitted at the aforesaid public hearings are also hereby incorporated by reference as fully as if attached hereto. This President and Board of Trustees further finds that the proposed special use is in the public good and in the best interests of the Village and its residents and is consistent with and fosters the purposes and spirit of the Orland Park Land Development Code as set forth in Section 1-102 thereof. Said special use is also in accordance with the provi-sions of the Compre-hensive Land Use Plan of the Village.
SECTION 2
In addition to the findings set forth in Section 1 hereof, this Board of Trustees further finds, in relation to the proposed special use permit to establish and operate an animal services facility in the BIZ General Business District, as follows:
(a) The Subject Property is located at 7000 W. 159th Street within the Village of Orland Park in Cook County, Illinois. The proposal is to establish and operate an animal services facility in an existing, vacant 10,000 square foot building in the Orland Park Plaza building. The Subject Property is zoned BIZ General Business District. Animal service facilities are permitted in the BIZ General Business District only via a special use permit pursuant to Section 6-207C.2.
(b) The proposed development is consistent with the purposes, goals, objectives and standards of the Com-prehensive Plan, any adopted overlay plan and the Land Development Code. The Comprehen-sive Plan designates this area for Community Commercial Use. An animal services facility is appropriate in such an area.
(c) The proposed development will be consistent with the character of the immediate vicinity of the Subject Property, which is presently zoned BIZ General Business District to the north and west. The developments to the south and east of the Subject Property are not located in Orland Park.
(d) The design of the development will minimize adverse effects, including visual impacts on adjacent properties. The Subject Property is not proposing any changes to lot coverage, building height or parking count. The Petitioner is proposing enhancement to the exterior design elements including façade changes, a new ADA complaint ramp, a masonry dumpster enclosure, and additional landscaping. There is adequate provision for parking to support the proposed use. Because the property is neither adjacent to nor facing any residential property, the special use will not negatively impact the neighboring tenants. The closest residential district is located approximately 500 feet to the northeast of the property, with a church and soccer field acting as a buffer in between. Finally, there will be no adverse effect on the value of the adjacent property, but rather will bring new development to this area and fill a vacant storefront.
(e) The Petitioner has demonstrated that public facilities and services, including but not limited to roadways, park facilities, police and fire protection, hospital and medical services, drainage systems, refuse disposal, water and sewers and schools will be capable of serving the special use at an adequate level of service. The site is directly accessible from 159th Street, which is an arterial road under the Illinois Department of Transportation’s jurisdiction. The proposed site has sufficient mobility and parking. The proposed special use will not independently impact the public facilities and services affecting the property.
(f) Petitioner has made adequate legal provision to guarantee the provision and development of any open space and other improvements associated with the proposed development.
(g) The development will not adversely affect a known archaeological, historical or cultural resource.
(h) The proposed development shall comply with all additional standards imposed on it by all other applicable require-ments of the ordinances and regulations of the Village.
