WHEREAS, the Plan Commission of this Village has filed its report of findings and recommendations that the requested special use with modifications be granted with this President and Board of Trustees, and this Board of Trustees have duly considered said report and findings and recommendations;
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 amendment with modifications and associated site plan and elevation changes for the construction of a three-car detached garage in the Village’s E-1 Estate Residential District, as follows:
(a) The Subject Property is located at 13350 LaGrange Road within the Village of Orland Park, Cook County, Illinois, and is zoned E-1 Estate Residential District. The proposal is to construct an 816 square foot three-car detached garage. There are currently two existing detached garages on the Subject Property that were allowed under the original special use permit granted to Petitioner in 1997 (Ord. 3033). The two existing garages are constructed of non-masonry materials and exceed the current code requirements for the allowed number of detached garages, but are legal non-conforming conditions. The proposed three-car garage will replace the existing one-car garage and will be constructed of similar non-masonry materials, extending the existing non-conforming use. Therefore, Petitioner is seeking an amendment to the 1997 special use permit with modifications to allow an increase in the number of allowable detached garages in the E-1 Estate Residential District from one (1) to two (2), per Land Development Code Section 6-302.C.13 and to allow the exterior walls of the three-car accessory building to be constructed of non-masonry materials, per Village Code 5-1-13 Section 501.3.2 and 503.2.1. The proposed garage will house church vans and provide an additional storage area. It will be located at the southwest corner of the rear parking lot on an existing concrete pad.
(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 the Subject Property as Community and Institutional. Petitioner operates a place of worship, and the proposed three-car garage will house church vans and provide an additional storage area. The proposed three-car garage is consistent with the type and number of garages currently on site. Additionally, the proposed three-car garage is consistent with the surrounding development to the north and south.
(c) The proposed development will be consistent with the character of the immediate vicinity of the Subject Property, which is presently zoned E-1 Estate Residential District - High School to the north, R-2 Residential District - Single Family Detached Homes to the south, R-4 Residential District - (across LaGrange Road) Townhomes to the east, and Unincorporated - Orland Grove Forest Preserve Forest District of Cook County to the west, where residential developments are located.
(d) The design of the development will minimize adverse effects. The proposed three-car garage will be constructed at the southwest corner of the rear parking lot. It will be compatible with the design of the principal building and the existing two-car detached garage on site. Additionally, the proposed three-car garage is not visible from the right-of-way along LaGrange Road and is heavily screened by trees and landscaping on the south side of the property. The proposed three-car garage meets the Land Development Code requirements pertaining to garage setbacks, garage size, and building height restrictions.
(e) There will be no adverse effects on the value of the property. The construction of the proposed three-car detached garage and the demolition of the existing one-car garage will result in two detached garages, the same number currently on site. The existing number of garages supports the need for a modification. The three-car detached garage will provide a safe, convenient parking for church vehicles and storage of equipment. It is logical to continue with the already established number of detached garages on the property rather than to remove one garage that serves the church to meet the current Code. Petitioner’s fixed income further prohibits the construction of a new garage with masonry materials. The modification to construct the three-car garage with non-masonry materials will simply extend the existing non-conforming masonry requirements. The proposed changes will not alter mobility or circulation of the site or the number of surface parking lot spaces and drive aisle configuration. No landscaping or trees will be removed during the project.
(f) 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. All utilities are accounted for and can accommodate the proposed development layout.
(g) Petitioner has made adequate legal provision to guarantee the provision and development of any open space and other improvements associated with the proposed development.
(h) The development will not adversely affect a known archaeological, historical or cultural resource.
(i) 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.
SECTION 3
