SECTION 3
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 with modification for recreational lighting and variation as follows:
A. The Subject Property contains approximately 15 acres and is located within the Village of Orland Park in Cook County, Illinois, at 15655 Ravinia Avenue. The Subject Property is identified as the Village’s Public Works Facility. The Project will consist of an approximately 62,173 square foot addition to the existing North Garage as well as a 19,293 square foot salt shed. The size of the salt shed qualifies it as a second principal structure, which requires a Special Use Permit for a Planned Development, with modifications.
B. The proposed use of the Subject Property is consistent with the purposes, goals, objectives and standards of the Comprehensive Plan, any adopted overlay plan and the Land Development Code. The Comprehensive Plan designates this property as Regional Mixed Use in the Regional Core Planning District.
C. The proposed special use will be consistent with the character of the immediate vicinity of the Subject Property. The Subject Property is surrounded by mixed uses. To the north and west are vacant parcels zoned Open Space. To the east is a commercial parcel with multiple restaurants, zoned COR Mixed Use, and to the south is a multi-tenant commercial parcel zoned COR Mixed Use (Lakeview Plaza) as well as multi-family condominium residential zoned R-4 Residential.
D. The proposed use of the Subject Property creates no adverse effects, including visual impacts, on adjacent properties. The proposed special use will not adversely affect the value of adjacent property.
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 uses at an adequate level of service. Adequate measures have been or will be taken to provide ingress and egress so designed to minimize traffic congestion in the adjacent public streets. The entrances and exits will comply with all applicable requirements, and internal traffic is adequately provided for.
F. Petitioners have made adequate legal provision, to guarantee the provision and preservation of all open spaces designated on the site plan and other improvements associated with the special uses and variance.
G. The proposed uses will not adversely affect a known archaeological, historical or cultural resource.
H. The proposed special use and variance shall comply with all additional standards imposed on it by all other applicable requirements of the ordinances of the Village.
