[0:00] Okay, welcome everybody. This is the building zoning and economic development committee. I'll call the order of this Wednesday, 404 p.m. January 25, 2023. Please call the roll.

[0:22] Okay, thank you. The approval of the minutes is the first item on December 20, 2023 to approve of the minutes from the BZ. Committee meeting held on January 11, 2023, but moved by all the women, sorry.

[0:48] That one, I knew that, yeah, that one.

[0:50] And second by all, I'm in Pranko. Any corrections, additions, certifications, all favor say aye.

[0:56] Opposed, motion carried, minutes are approved and five nothing.

[1:00] Any members of the public question come forth with the comment?

[1:06] No one registered. Okay. We'll go to the agenda then. The first item is 22, 1, 0, 6, 6 in order, so that's rising the execution of the second amendment.

[1:16] To the boundary agreement with the village of us, we go, Alex.

[1:20] Good afternoon, Chairman or all members of the committee. About 20 years ago on August 27, 2002, the city of Aurora proved an IGA with the village of Oswego that agreement as expired and the staff has worked with Oswego staff to put forward a renewal of the IGA.

[1:45] From 2002, there was a first amendment approved in 2013, slightly changing the baseline put forward put in place with 2002 ordinance, which amended the jurisdictions powers and authority determining also the self determination area.

[2:13] Now from 2013, nothing has changed and I will go through the three major changes from the 2013 IGA.

[2:31] First, it eliminates the need for Oswego and Aurora to develop the route 30 improvement plan. The reason behind this because that was anticipated in 2002, but was never implemented.

[2:49] So that was that language was has been canceled, is being deleted in the IGA put in put forward for your approval.

[3:03] And then the second change is the dedication of the language referring to the dedication of the land for future 95th Street corridor that has been done, so that's the reason why we are deleting that language from the IGA.

[3:21] The third change is the language stating that the village of Oswego and the city of Aurora will work together for the future of the route 30 and 95th Street intersection that will be taking care of.

[3:37] Through public works engineering and for future land uses through planning and zoning.

[3:43] In conjunction with the mayor's office of economic development, these are the three major changes from the 2013 version and 2002 once again the.

[4:00] Other elements of the AGA remain are the same we are cooperatively working together with Oswego for the best uses and viability of the corridor along US 30.

[4:20] Any questions?

[4:24] You said for basically 20 years it was never implemented my big question is why I knew he's going to ask a question.

[4:46] There was there has to do with the flex zone that was put in place back then this flex zone allows for.

[5:01] I would say flexibilities in uses and as you may know the market dictates most of the uses and we had we have had many ups and downs and unpredictable and in the best interest to accommodate the needs of the market.

[5:28] It's it's like a mutual agreement and mutual understanding that we will react as the market goes on.

[5:41] So.

[5:44] Isn't there a big development about to go somewhere near this area called their web.

[5:56] We don't need to do any improvements in that area and we've got no improvements are being considered as the as plans are submitted to to the city and.

[6:12] The section that we're now going throughout of the.

[6:16] The comprehensive plan already prescribes the commercial uses along the US 30 and the residential uses so it is our intention to pursue the commercial uses along US 30.

[6:32] Which comprehensive plan we talking about bars or hours.

[6:38] I'm sure I was like we we have a comprehensive plan we have.

[6:44] The plans for both commercial corners along there that are coming along with the web.

[6:52] Okay, so when we take this forward can you.

[6:57] Interject that into this document so that we can have a good field that.

[7:04] Yeah, we taken this out but here's what's in the works and can we do that.

[7:12] I mean there there's no.

[7:15] What exactly was was noted is taken out.

[7:19] Of course, it says eliminate the need for the improvement plan on the talking talking about taking out the improvement plan.

[7:26] Is that regarding though the intersection of future 95th and 30 is that.

[7:30] No, this one talks about a generally the anticipated need in 2002.

[7:37] And a agreement for the route 30 improvement plan.

[7:44] It's for established guidelines and streetscape.

[7:49] And as we pursue also corridor plans as you may know as part of the CIP staff is looking at.

[8:00] Major corridors so that could be one proposal for a CIP.

[8:08] So we still want to take this out.

[8:12] What happened is north of wolves crossing most of the right along the east side of 30 that actually is in the us we go side.

[8:22] When you get south of wolves crossing then we go all the way to about 30 so we will have that commercial and whatever improvements are needed there.

[8:29] But I believe most of 30 north of wolves crossing is actually in us we go jurisdiction.

[8:37] We don't actually have route 30 and where gas fill is you know that little on incorporated area there.

[8:43] That's that flex area but that we have no intention of annexing that.

[8:47] So we are going to do improvement south of wolves crossing on 30 when del web commercial comes in and so on.

[8:54] I guess my my my difficulty with this is you're saying it eliminate.

[9:03] And the development of the 30 property improvement plan.

[9:08] That's what it says.

[9:10] Sorry.

[9:11] So I'm just looking at now so basically remember this is from back in 2002.

[9:18] It's eliminating.

[9:21] The section six and seven but you're still retaining.

[9:26] On the second page.

[9:27] Route 30 in future 90 fifth street intersection.

[9:30] What a roren or us we go agree to do but to Ed's point there are different sections there.

[9:37] Some out of our control.

[9:40] Some in our control so this is updating this this plan.

[9:44] Correct.

[9:45] To reflect they're still going to be future roadway improvements and we're working cooperatively.

[9:53] But it's taking out items that I think are redundant or outdated.

[10:00] Correct.

[10:01] So this is really a refreshing of this boundary agreement.

[10:06] It's not creating an entirely new document it's simply.

[10:11] Yeah, it's taken out six and seven.

[10:13] Correct.

[10:14] Which as knows.

[10:16] No impact other than cleanup is what I understood.

[10:19] And that's why we brought this forward.

[10:21] And to follow this three not thoughts.

[10:24] We are looking at the intersection of US 30 and 95 there.

[10:31] So within our jurisdiction we wanted to to have that one that language.

[10:39] Present in the document.

[10:41] So both municipalities feel that there's no need to establish design guidelines and streets.

[10:46] Street scapes standards.

[10:48] For that section of our 30.

[10:51] Is that what we're saying both of us don't think that's necessary now.

[10:55] Correct.

[10:57] Because our.

[10:59] We didn't do anything 20 years ago.

[11:01] No not so much because of that but because there are several parcels that are.

[11:08] Not with proper zoning as of right now.

[11:11] Incorporated and those residual parcels in our jurisdiction will be dictated by.

[11:19] Quarant zoning ordinances and our design guidelines within the cities.

[11:26] Perq view.

[11:31] Again.

[11:33] This is very specific language back to 2002 calling for things like the plan to be presented within six months of approval of this agreement.

[11:43] All that's in the past.

[11:45] We're still agreeing together with them to create future roadway improvements.

[11:50] We're going to work cooperatively.

[11:52] This gives us far more latitude on each side than the limitations placed on us back in 2002.

[12:00] So nobody is saying we're not going to.

[12:04] Consider things like streetscape corridor standards design guidelines.

[12:09] It's just.

[12:10] This language is outdated.

[12:12] It's obsolete.

[12:14] We are retaining.

[12:16] Both of us and again this is.

[12:18] Us dealing with us we go they're going to pass.

[12:22] A similar.

[12:24] Update as we are but we by no means and you can see.

[12:29] Even in the work we've done with del web and every other development along these corridors.

[12:34] Streetscape comes into play design elements all of these things so.

[12:39] We are simply.

[12:41] With us we goes consent.

[12:43] Updating this and removing this if we would have left it in.

[12:47] And honestly I wasn't part of this in 2002.

[12:50] I don't know that it we even comply with some of these things.

[12:53] But it doesn't mean we're not going to comply in the future.

[12:56] It depends leaving in the paragraphs above the signature blocks on page two.

[13:07] And this isn't even the entire this is just a second amendment.

[13:11] There's a whole.

[13:12] Foundry agreement which is.

[13:15] Um.

[13:16] Did we attach it Alex I don't see.

[13:18] Yes.

[13:19] Yes.

[13:20] And all the the maintenance the roadway.

[13:23] Everything else remains the same.

[13:26] Correct.

[13:27] Okay.

[13:28] So he's basically saying we're cleaning.

[13:30] We're cleaning up the document to make it.

[13:33] Updating.

[13:35] Yeah.

[13:36] And giving us more.

[13:38] Flexibility to be creative.

[13:41] Now us we go.

[13:43] You know we have.

[13:45] You know competitive situation down there that's emerged.

[13:49] Just like we have competitive economic situation is along 59.

[13:54] But we're working together with us we go.

[13:59] Okay.

[14:01] I.

[14:03] Yeah.

[14:04] I just have something to add to when I think that.

[14:07] On the Jenkins is getting to I think there's you know when you read that.

[14:10] You know first it eliminates the need for us we're going to work to develop.

[14:13] When you read that couple of sentences it looks like we're really taking something out.

[14:18] That could at some point time have some level of importance.

[14:23] It's not until you get over to the next paragraph.

[14:26] Do you realize what's.

[14:28] It's all in the presentation.

[14:29] I think when you're reading this first.

[14:32] This has first and gives you that couple of sentences.

[14:35] It truly looks like we're eliminating something that could come back later and be a problem.

[14:40] Then when you get over and you look at what specifically was eliminated.

[14:45] And you see the last area that was left it kind of makes full sense.

[14:52] I think part of it is the language that's put in that legislative document.

[14:59] We're getting read.

[15:00] The most restrictive language in the RDA to allow for more breeding room for both municipalities to adapt with the conditions of the market and the conditions of the city as we.

[15:15] I follow what you're saying, but do you follow what I'm saying? I just the way it's presented in this document and kind of looks like it could be something that could come back later and be a problem.

[15:25] When you get over and you look at six and seven, you say, okay, then we've got, you know, the last portion of that document.

[15:31] It makes some sense, so maybe if we could just clean up the language in that.

[15:36] That we're not eliminating, we aren't eliminating the entire thing because we're still leaving some of it in there.

[15:42] Yeah, I think Alex, if I may, Mr. Chairman, if you look at the discussion text in the cover memo, I think it lays it out.

[15:54] What I would tweak is that anything that refers to eliminating is specifically eliminating language reference 2002, which was in there, but we checked was never implemented.

[16:09] So since it hasn't, wasn't implemented then has have been implemented for 20 years.

[16:14] That's a pretty good indication that it needs to go.

[16:18] Secondly, the land, the requirement for dedicating land for future 95th, that was already completed and done.

[16:25] So that language is obsolete cleanup.

[16:30] In the third, we are saying with what you just caught all of them in Smith on the second page is it still has that additional language requiring the village and the city to work together going forward.

[16:48] So maybe we can tweak a little bit the memo so that their colleagues when they get it to you and you can highlight that in the presentation.

[16:55] How is the discussion area?

[16:58] Yes, we did it.

[16:59] I got the word on my name to say you're right.

[17:01] It's a, it's okay.

[17:02] The reason I ask the question about why nothing happened for 20 years.

[17:07] I could say that it's abbed and flowed.

[17:10] The pressure, right.

[17:11] Right, right.

[17:12] And so you could say, hey, we have amended this in order to be able to take advantage of future opportunities.

[17:22] say I'm lemonade, I'm thinking you're taking something from me and you know I'm checking my

[17:27] pockets because you know you pick my pockets and I don't want you to do that and there's

[17:31] opportunities coming down the road with the Dell web and we both communities have to

[17:36] be ready to take advantage of that. So if you can tweak this a little bit I should

[17:40] make it great. Motion to approve.

[17:46] The move by for approval by Alderman Smith, second by Alderman Jenkins, any further discussion

[17:52] anything more to add Alex. Thank you all. If you ever say aye. All right.

[17:56] Polls motion carried five nothing. Thank you. The next one we have two items. 23 days

[18:03] zero, zero, two nine, orange, proving a vision to vote if you'll plan development.

[18:06] District plan description on approximately 97 acres for property located at 2725 and 2815

[18:14] built a road being south of the builder and west of North Eola Road and the second one

[18:19] is 23-dass zero, zero, four, four, resolution proving a preliminary plan and a plan for but if

[18:25] you'll face two unit five, a subdivision on vacant land located at 2815 built a road being

[18:31] south of built a road and west of North Eola Road.

[18:35] Yes, good afternoon. I'm just going kind of briefly introduce and talk more about the plan

[18:40] description and I have the petitioners here who have a presentation about the specific specific

[18:45] preliminary plan and plan. So the plan description revision is regarding two parcels as you

[18:51] can see on the map part I'm labeling the parcel A's right of it is east of the to a ramp on

[18:57] parcel B is west of the to a ramp. This area is part of the butterfield plan development district

[19:04] so the uses permitted in this plan development is not just or I uses but even it was kind of medium

[19:12] to light industrial as well. These two parcels had had some zoning changes through the years

[19:17] including allowing some additional uses and prohibiting some other uses. So we're kind of wanting to

[19:23] revamp that to kind of remove the butterfield plan development district uses in total and allow these following

[19:31] so for parcel A and B business what's permitted in the B2 would be permitted as well as some

[19:38] conditional uses in the B2 would be printed bright like hotel special purpose recreation.

[19:45] The only other uses permitted on parcel A would be a warehouse distribution store service

[19:51] shoes only in the form of a data center all other uses that fall in that warehouse category would be

[19:59] prohibited parcel B would be allowed in addition to the B2 or I uses office research like industrial

[20:08] excluding some uses which include warehouse be excluded vehicle terminals vehicle storage yards

[20:15] heavy industrial truck and freight transportation and commercial towing would be prohibited

[20:22] but all other I use this would be permitted. And then concurrently with his plan description

[20:29] revision the opposing preliminary plan and platform parcel A for the data for a data center complex

[20:36] it would include a phase development three electronic data store buildings and along with that there will be a

[20:46] electronic substation and an area set aside for like EV charging a lot for passenger vehicles EV

[20:56] there's also quite small area let me try to bring up that will be laid be allowed for retail

[21:03] the position is not planning the retail doing that as part of it but they're sitting side areas

[21:15] okay so there you go so you can see the three buildings the future substation and the area for the EV slot

[21:20] and then the area to the west of that is where the future retail could go. Is there any questions for

[21:28] staff not I can hold it handed over to President for a presentation and they'll go into they have more

[21:34] images of the renderings even though this is a preliminary plan and platform we did ask them go ahead and

[21:39] get up as a preliminary landscape so we can see how well it's being buffered we have some

[21:45] masonry walls along the substation we have a lot of Birmingham but have vegetation and then also

[21:52] elevations point me elevations because we want to do a they worked with us to get a little higher

[21:56] into elevations than maybe this is a typical data center okay but they have renderings and all that and

[22:01] their presentation they can show great any questions to staff at this time we could have yes all the

[22:08] moments met no I believe I'll just listen first and see if I have okay yeah if

[22:14] attention would like to step forward and and do some sounds and welcome good afternoon my name is Richard Williams

[22:21] I'm turning for C free properties we are the developer of the 65 acre parcel that Jill had up on the

[22:28] property which is known as exhibit our parcel a this little context for you this is part of the

[22:34] Butterfield Center for Business and Industry which was originally about a 1600 acre development that was

[22:39] approved by the city back in the late 70s there are three parcels that really have not been developed

[22:47] and this is the far western portion of that development that's what we're talking about here today

[22:53] our team here is Doug Houser he's a vice president of development for C free properties we have our architect

[23:01] Webster with where Malcolm we have our engineer Jared Kenyan with Kim Lee Horn and last but not least we have Paulina Timoshaco

[23:11] Paulina is a project manager for Endeavored Edge Endeavored will be the user who will be operating

[23:19] three data center facilities on this property as Jill said we are requesting an amendment to the planned

[23:27] development this

[23:31] Matter is this uses permitted is a matter of right and all of Butterfield except for parcel A and parcel B and that was done

[23:39] as part of an ordinance amendment in 2015 which prohibited warehouse and distribution centers and because data centers are

[23:46] relatively new technology and use and kind of outpaste rezoning code the city has historically

[23:52] catarized catarized data centers as a warehouse and distribution center so because warehouse distribution

[23:59] centers are prohibited under 2015 ordinance that's why we're here for a text amendment

[24:06] DPV the owner of the property was our seller and they also own parcel B has agreed to work cooperatively with

[24:14] us and the city to address some of the city's concerns on parcel B so with that I'll turn it over to

[24:19] to Mr. Halwell actually to Paulina excuse me to tell you a little bit about who had never did

[24:25] edges of what they plan on doing thank you

[24:30] Good evening everyone thank you for your time

[24:34] I'll tell you guys a little bit about us edge the we are data center company that falls under the endeavor umbrella

[24:41] as you can see on the bottom there are six companies that are falling under in Debra and Brella

[24:46] all them serve a different purpose of deploying technology that'll help us better the environment so you'll

[24:54] see here edge data center solutions EV charging microgrid which is grid block assisting utility companies

[25:01] and the grid turbo sell it's an alternative way of powering and power distribution

[25:08] packed alternative fuels to power turbo sell and other

[25:15] technologies like planes and generators our thermal work schooling system which you'll see in our data center and that is a

[25:22] waterless cooling and our water solutions which is wall tuck it will not be part of the data center deployment

[25:28] it has to do with recycling water and bringing clean water to places they can't afford to have it

[25:34] so edge is the data center company we're I want to explain to you why we're different from what you've

[25:41] seen so far built in Chicago and neighboring communities our sole purpose is to set the standard

[25:49] tie and change the way our counterparts are operating data centers data centers are very heavy in

[25:57] electricity water land usage what we're trying to do with grid block and thermorex is offset that

[26:04] and actually help this infrastructure run so thermorex no water our sensors require no water unlike

[26:12] every other conventional data center you will see grid block will eventually once deployed will offset

[26:18] the usage of electricity and actually can feed back into the grid and help relieve the pressure in the grid

[26:25] so that's kind of like how we're going to run our data centers the rest of the you'll see we'll

[26:30] bring eventually online they'll help with EV charging they'll help with powering data centers completely

[26:36] off grid and also data centers do require backup system by the federal regulation which is a

[26:44] in essence the general typical generator our generators are a higher tier and we're going to utilize back

[26:51] to provide alternative sources of fuel to run those generators so they'll be zero impact to

[26:56] environment so that's in nutshell who and the average team is we have actually deployed our thermal

[27:04] works cooling systems in our Spain projects and they're starting to kick off and they're performing very

[27:10] well so we're very glad and we're looking forward to seeing that happen here our core team has an extensive

[27:19] experience in data centers they have founded the mission critical in Skanska which is kind of like the

[27:24] first group of people to play mass projects in data centers in Canada and they've formed a line which

[27:34] I think you've seen along the highway and eventually chose to leave because of some internal conflicts and

[27:42] found that endeavor once we are here and our presence is here in Aurora we also will be deploying

[27:52] our and their women technology group where we've been engaging the community to bring in women and

[27:57] minorities into the technology sector and broaden their interest in horizons there the partners that you'll

[28:07] be seeing I can't really say which one but one of these wonderful logos will be participating in the

[28:14] Aurora data center campus we're hoping we'll bring the rest for the other two buildings and it's looking

[28:21] positive and then finally we will be deploying as as we grow we'll be deploying all those technologies

[28:29] that we spoke about and they'll touch up on zero water which will see right away solar energy will be

[28:37] charging our EV off a solar energy will probably deploy more hopefully it'll be more efficient solar panels

[28:44] to run to actually run our data centers and there's a zero carbon footprint with grid block and packed fuels

[28:52] where we won't be utilizing any dirty energies you want to call say coal or any other fuels that

[28:59] you'll burn so that's the mission of endeavor and we hope to start it here thank you thank you

[29:14] hey guys so my name's Doug Houser I'm with the seafood properties for the developer of the site

[29:20] so we're working with edge to develop these buildings edge will actually own the land we as a developer won't

[29:29] be buying it edge will own it which is want to go through a little bit of the nuts and bolts on what we're building for

[29:34] you guys so really the only date here that we thought was important for you guys is we want to act quickly there's

[29:41] a lot of demand out there for these data center cloud technologies and and buildings and so we want to get this

[29:48] first building up shell the shell up December of 2023 here's a location aerial and so this specific site

[30:00] It was important for the edged operation because of its proximity to the Conmed Substation. That's just across I-888.

[30:08] It's actually just the J-sense, Cyrus won there to the South.

[30:12] And then there's also an intersection of redundant fiber infrastructure, which is really important to the data center community.

[30:19] And then the 65 acres will allow them to co-locate as Paulina mentioned, a couple of those anchor tenants, a couple of those, the six tenants are called hyperscalors.

[30:32] So one of them is the anchor tenant of this site, and then we hope to co-locate others in those next two buildings.

[30:42] Here's the site and the concept of the building campus, so we'll go clockwise, so building one, then two and three, two is slightly, but it's actually double in size, as double in size from building one and two, it's building one and two are building one back to back really.

[31:02] And so the other aspect aside from the data center buildings is this EV charging area, so there's a little outlawed up here on the north side, where as Paulina mentioned, they've got technology that's in the works to use some of the power, you know, there's massive amounts of power that these generators are that these data centers generate and we're able to use with some of their technology.

[31:29] Some of that power to give back to the community and the form of electric vehicle charging.

[31:37] And so we've worked with Ed and Jill and the community for the staff to try to figure out the best way to show that, and so as of now we've got that in the form of this parking lot, and then it's an electric passenger electric vehicle parking lot and then to the south.

[31:58] You'll notice the open area there, we've agreed to leave that open in case anybody commercial retail will work with the city to get the highest and best use there if there is a different use other than electric vehicle charging, which is what endeavor edge would be using it for if they continue to own it.

[32:24] And so I'll go through a couple of renderings, this is just from a site plan perspective where those renderings come from.

[32:31] So here's your view from built to road, this is building one.

[32:37] And so you'll notice on a couple of these, as Jill mentioned, we worked with staff again to try to ramp up the aesthetics, you know a lot of these data centers try to be, they want to look very secure.

[32:51] Fortresses, you kind of fortressy and so we've worked with them to soften that aesthetic and so we've created variation in the in the building height here.

[33:01] Different contours in the form of reveals actually in the concrete panels that are led depth to the building we've added some glass panels to the building so there's.

[33:13] There's actually no windows allowed in a data center, but we've added glass to the exterior purely first that X to upgrade that and then appear the the blue area that's actually the office the administrative area and so that'll have a nice storefront to it as well.

[33:30] Here's the view from the Eola overpass, so you're looking over the storm water detention pond and then you'll see that's just the larger of the two buildings, so it's the same concept for all three buildings.

[33:43] Here's what the interior look like, very nice up to date interior elements to that office space.

[33:51] Here's what the view of the substation looks like and we're working with combat, you know they'll have equipment in that substation but we'll work with those guys to make sure we wall off and screen and landscape anything so that that's not an ice or.

[34:06] Here's an elevation with a little more detail this just shows you that.

[34:11] This is a two story building and so really what we wanted to convey here is you know the 2015 ordinance that does not allow warehouse use.

[34:23] Was really made for warehousing and trucking and that is not what this facility will be built for once it's built it's a two story facility where you even if you wanted to you couldn't convert it into any sort of warehouse distribution facility it will be a data center only facility.

[34:40] And then again the folks that so edge the folks that own the land it won't be us see free to develop or it'll be edged they don't do warehouse distribution so.

[34:50] Again, just kind of make sure you guys know that will not be at this site.

[34:55] Here's rendering is just labeling each material glass you've got the concrete it's actually architectural concrete so the structure itself is steel but it's architectural.

[35:09] Architectural precast is what this the the shell the outer shell will be so we'll address that up with reveals and things that will add depth to the building.

[35:18] And then you get this stone molded polyethylene which will enclose the generator yard hiding that from from public view.

[35:29] There's the back same same concept there.

[35:33] And then just wanted to make sure we touched on some of the neighborhood friendly design aspects of the building so very low traffic impact I know that was a concern again with the 2015 ordinance so.

[35:47] These guys will have about 60 passenger vehicles a day no trucks the only trucks that come in will be to retrofit the actual facility when you're loading and unloading servers or.

[35:58] Generators or things of that nature so very very infrequent.

[36:02] And then the design storm water wise so this site parcel and parcel be were both grandfathered into a storm water.

[36:12] A rainfall ordinance or rainfall data chart back in 2015 which we are not using we're using the current data.

[36:22] Current data in for current rainfall data decides our storm water so it's actually more than.

[36:28] What another development otherwise would be.

[36:32] Would be held to design to.

[36:35] And then your quarter us let aesthetics so along built a road we're going to be adding a raised median with landscaping on the interior where you don't have turn lanes right.

[36:47] So you'll see a load up here for you so the green aspects here along built their point to that raised landscape median then here's a couple pictures of what that all look like.

[36:59] So a little bit beautification of the corridor there.

[37:04] Here here's some economic benefits of the project so utility taxes alone will be almost three and a half million dollars per year.

[37:12] That's on top of the real estate taxes that are estimated to be about a hundred thousand dollars a year.

[37:18] The total projected investment from edged will be to around half a billion dollars five hundred million dollars.

[37:27] They've got the fortune one hundred tenets that we mentioned earlier in the presentation high tech full time jobs four to sixty folks and then over two thousand construction jobs over to three to over the three to five year period of building the.

[37:41] district vehicle area the three buildings the substation the entire campus and then no municipal or local economic incentives and minimal impact to the taxing bodies.

[37:56] And then the infrastructure improvements will benefit the power grid so their technologies able to actually source power back to the grid they're working with.

[38:05] And it's actually not comment it's comments mother company exon.

[38:10] To get that agreement in place where their generators because that could actually feed power back to the grid.

[38:15] Whenever that grid gets stressed.

[38:20] And I think we're going to talk a little bit about zoning here.

[38:26] Just to wrap up a few few concepts here so what you're seeing here is the local zoning in the area in the property to the east of.

[38:34] You'll a road there as part of butterfield and this uses a permitted use right now in that area and if you go south of our site.

[38:42] There's a lot of ORI that uses a permitted use right now in the ORI so we believe our use is appropriate with what's in the area and we don't really think that the twenty fifteen.

[38:53] Ornance really cop contemplated this site sort of use we think it's appropriate to amend the PDD just to clean up how the city is historically categorized data centers.

[39:07] Couple things just want to stress is we know that traffic is an important issue in this area and you're not going to get a lower traffic generator than this use this could be a hotel convention center multi office complex.

[39:22] With thousands and thousands of cars generate forty to sixty trips per day.

[39:27] So it's a really low intensive use doesn't put a lot of strain on city services and pays quite a bit back to the city.

[39:35] We're going to generate three and a half million dollars almost in utility tax to the city.

[39:41] With no impact on the city so we think this is a great use for the city we're excited about this.

[39:47] It's sort of bolsters this area is a high tax area of the city that we've seen developed with.

[39:53] Cyrus one and scientists also we think this is a natural progression and a good use for this property and we're excited so with that I guess we're ready to answer any questions you might have.

[40:03] Any questions of the committee.

[40:05] Mr. Chairman may I say a few words from our perspective thank you Rick and team.

[40:14] First and foremost I do want to focus on the work that's been done up till now with seafood as well as.

[40:27] Edged and and also the owner of the property do praise property ventures.

[40:33] We had a very impressive initial discussion with them.

[40:38] This is a situation and I think it's best highlighted on the neighborhood friendly design slide as well as the economic impact one.

[40:51] It was a top priority for us to search out and confirm a low impact use there.

[41:03] Trying to maximize the highest return we could revenue wise so as much as there are folks out there who want.

[41:13] Factories and massive type developments retail and hotels everywhere.

[41:21] You have to be realistic and you have to be open to different concepts and so I think with this collaboration came a tremendously low impact high yield return.

[41:38] We know that filter is an important corridor for the city.

[41:42] We know what's going on it finds worth in filter.

[41:46] We've talked about the plans there and so this was a companion piece going along with basically.

[41:55] Lot A and lot B on either side of the interchange that is not developed as as we would have liked.

[42:03] So if you look at.

[42:06] The full build up potential here and this was also important.

[42:10] We talked about timing.

[42:13] We reached out to the to our local utility provider to come at excellent.

[42:21] The group with their experience and working with them you see from the design it's going to be.

[42:32] Heavy on the utility tax which is a tremendous benefit to the city.

[42:37] The build out is going to be aggressive.

[42:40] Excellent has already committed that there's enough power capacity to meet the needs of the first building.

[42:50] You see also a future substation which will help with the build out.

[42:57] No municipal.

[42:59] Ask no incentives.

[43:01] No extra taxes on anybody.

[43:06] But also I don't want to overlook the fact that they're attracting Fortune 100 companies.

[43:12] We've had great experience as Rick mentioned with the nearby.

[43:20] As well as sign tell.

[43:22] So this is truly becoming a tech corridor along I88.

[43:28] There'll be some significant construction jobs.

[43:31] Significant high paying high tech jobs when all of these are built up.

[43:38] So staff to a great job especially Ed and Tracy Jill everybody working with Rick and seafood.

[43:48] To get this to this state so we're very excited about the opportunity to generate.

[43:54] Consistent high yield revenue without much traffic or adverse impact to the area that that's.

[44:06] We're we're almost checking all the boxes that the mayor and staff wanted to with this project and we're very appreciative of your effort and your presentation.

[44:18] Okay.

[44:19] Follow us Matt.

[44:21] Nice presentation you guys thank you.

[44:23] Impressive.

[44:24] I'm looking at the economic benefits and when we go down to the.

[44:29] Minimal impact on.

[44:32] Taxing bodies can we define.

[44:34] Minimal sure we generate no school children but yet we generate lots of money and real estate taxes.

[44:40] We don't send people to the library.

[44:42] We don't use your parks.

[44:44] We don't use police services.

[44:46] Hopefully we don't have to use your fire services.

[44:48] I mean we're going to be there and we're going to be operating and you're not going to know where they're and we're not going to.

[44:54] Negatively affect the city in fact we're going to.

[44:57] The net get back to the city is a greater.

[45:00] And the reason why I asked that is because, you know, as I've said multiple times as we go out to the community and we explain these situations, we need to be able to explain them thoroughly. So that's why I asked that. So that's a very great explanation that I could give to a resident that may ask me a question of what does that mean? So thank you for that.

[45:21] I'll have an appointment. And this is just strictly development for personal A, right? So personal B is, am I looking at this wrong? Is it just personal A for right now?

[45:31] What we're talking about for the preliminary platen plan, but the zoning applies to both partially and parcel B. And that was done cooperatively at the request of staff, just to make sure that there are some controls on what happens with parcel B in the future. I think that's a significant parcel from the city's perspective.

[45:52] And, you know, even though that really doesn't affect us, I know DPV worked tirelessly with Alex and and Dave and others in staff and they came up with the solution that I think and I hope works for everybody.

[46:06] And if I may Mr. Chairman, Mo Ed is actively marketing B within parameters that we talked about and as Rick said had the understanding with DPV, the owners, but let me remind everybody and this was also, there were a few things top of mind when we started entertaining this.

[46:33] The city made a significant investment in this interchange. I don't recall, I don't know if John is here.

[46:40] I don't recall the actual amount to Ed, do you remember the total $10 million?

[46:48] Thank you. Thank you. I'm glad we have a historian. So it's time to start recruiting.

[46:59] And so when you see these returns and little or no impact back in terms of services, we will start finally recruiting. And this is just over $4 million a year just from A. We're not even to be yet.

[47:17] And so that was significant and I think that's a key point because I'm sure there are folks in the community, all the women's met that remember that investment.

[47:29] Thank you.

[47:31] I'm a resident of Aurora as well for 23 years. I drive by there for years and kept waiting for something to sprout there.

[47:39] And finally now we're getting a nice mix using A will spur some pretty cool uses and B.

[47:49] On the Jenkins?

[47:51] Let me make a correction. It wasn't $13 million. It was $7 million, but it took 13 years to get the interchange in.

[48:00] Okay. So Steve Lord, just want to make sure you got the right information.

[48:06] We were discussing this under.

[48:11] We were discussing it under the Silver Administration by putting the interchange center.

[48:18] You know, it's president of the Silver Employee Alumni Group. Thank you for that reference.

[48:28] We can put that the benefit of the bears and not coming.

[48:33] A couple of questions.

[48:37] With this, what have the neighbors, the people in the area been notified of this plan?

[48:44] Yes. In fact, we had two neighbors at the public hearings and both of them think us for the architectural improvements and were very pleased with the low traffic generation,

[48:54] especially the church.

[48:56] Pastor came up and thanked us personally after the meeting.

[48:59] We also received an official letter from the Forest Reserve with a no comment on the development.

[49:04] Yes, the one that was in the packet right.

[49:07] That was the one in the packet.

[49:09] I also spoke to all of women, B. Several times on the project.

[49:12] She's been involved supportive of us. She's had a couple of residents reach out to her, asking some questions,

[49:18] who provides additional information to them, and they had no follow up questions.

[49:23] And yet the church was, they were at the meeting as well.

[49:26] And they've been in contact with the auditor, and there is support.

[49:32] And the substation, who's going to own that? Is there any comment here?

[49:37] Excellent.

[49:38] I'll let Doug answer that question.

[49:41] Yeah, so it could potentially be comment that owns that.

[49:48] It's likely that it stays with us.

[49:51] It just depends on how they design that within their system.

[49:55] So there's there's stuff that's a little bit of a my electrical engineering pay grade that will be integral in figuring out whether it's there's ours.

[50:06] It's part of a looped network within their network of substations.

[50:11] They're really determines that.

[50:13] Okay. All right. Thank you.

[50:15] The charging station.

[50:18] Is that going to be a public?

[50:20] Whether that public can come in. How many base?

[50:24] We're going to start with five.

[50:26] And then I mean,

[50:29] Paulina just kind of humbly talked about who edge is either a way cool organization and high tech stuff.

[50:36] That's way above what I can understand.

[50:37] But they're building their own proprietary charging system that's tied into their solar grid,

[50:44] tied into the grid and that's in process.

[50:48] So when that is it full roll out will roll out the full area.

[50:54] But in the meantime until that happens, we've committed to do five stations.

[50:58] So your genesis like the car would be able to be charged at that.

[51:02] Yes.

[51:03] Okay.

[51:04] Okay.

[51:05] And hopefully you can get coffee at a retail shop that gets developed while you're charging.

[51:10] Okay.

[51:13] And when man, where is this retail again?

[51:16] Yeah. So it's just lost at chill.

[51:24] It's at the northwest corner.

[51:26] You see that little parking lot up there.

[51:28] We're not a retail developer.

[51:30] We're not experienced with that.

[51:32] So we're planning that as a separate lot.

[51:35] We're going to work with the city to market it.

[51:38] We're going to put in the charging stations.

[51:40] But somebody else is going to have to run and operate it.

[51:44] Okay.

[51:45] So it's five days to start.

[51:48] And right there.

[51:50] Yes.

[51:54] Yeah.

[51:55] So here I think shows a little better.

[51:57] Maybe even presentation.

[51:58] So that area to the west is the future of retail.

[52:02] But I mean it can be laid out differently.

[52:04] We set a decides separate from the EV.

[52:07] So that way it could be platted out.

[52:09] So if we have someone interested, they can come in.

[52:12] They can purchase it from edge because as edge doesn't do retail.

[52:15] That's not what they do.

[52:16] So then they can lay it out.

[52:18] We can change that.

[52:19] Come in for a revision.

[52:20] And then we still have the charges station that would be separate.

[52:23] That would be done by edge.

[52:25] There's starts with five.

[52:28] But as you can see.

[52:29] And I can't remember how many spaces.

[52:31] But it can grow.

[52:32] There's even maybe some room east.

[52:34] So depending how popular it is.

[52:36] But we also didn't want to know.

[52:38] We designed it to be passenger.

[52:40] So there's going to be like in the middle of them.

[52:43] You can't pull through for a truck.

[52:45] And then the engineers did redesign the insurance.

[52:49] So it makes it difficult to have a large kind of truck coming into it.

[52:54] So the retail is basically.

[52:58] For the charging station.

[53:00] So people come.

[53:01] You can get a cup of coffee.

[53:02] Yes.

[53:03] You can put it down.

[53:04] Okay.

[53:05] All right.

[53:06] What about sign.

[53:07] Yeah.

[53:08] Right off the toll way.

[53:10] You know what I mean?

[53:13] What about on.

[53:14] On build filter.

[53:15] But accessible.

[53:17] For people want to get off.

[53:19] You know, they'll.

[53:20] It'll be a.

[53:21] Could be somewhere for.

[53:22] Some retail taxes.

[53:24] Sales tax.

[53:25] All right.

[53:26] And.

[53:27] With the total build out time table.

[53:30] I mean, we talking.

[53:31] How many buildings are.

[53:33] Three buildings.

[53:34] The first building.

[53:35] The first building.

[53:36] The shell is going to be ready by the end of the year.

[53:38] Mm-hmm.

[53:39] And then that endeavor.

[53:40] It's going to move in and do whatever they need to do to outfit it.

[53:43] The following two buildings are a function of wind.

[53:46] Commed.

[53:47] Deliver.

[53:48] The power.

[53:49] And.

[53:50] We believe that'll happen within the next three to five years.

[53:53] Okay.

[53:54] So.

[53:55] Then next five, six years.

[53:56] It's total bill.

[53:57] That will occur.

[53:58] We.

[53:59] We are optimistic that five is on the high side.

[54:01] Okay.

[54:02] When this will occur.

[54:03] We think it's closer to three.

[54:06] All right.

[54:07] And one last question.

[54:08] After this development.

[54:10] How much land.

[54:11] Well.

[54:12] D.P.B.

[54:13] Have left.

[54:14] Uh.

[54:15] I believe that B is 30.

[54:16] Thirty.

[54:17] Thirty.

[54:18] Thirty.

[54:19] Thirty.

[54:20] It's.

[54:21] Right.

[54:22] On the side of the.

[54:23] Yes.

[54:24] On the.

[54:25] On the.

[54:26] On the west side.

[54:27] Okay.

[54:28] Gotcha.

[54:29] That's it.

[54:30] That's it.

[54:31] It's been since what?

[54:32] 1970.

[54:33] What?

[54:34] 1970.

[54:35] I think they initially acquired 12 hundred acres back then.

[54:38] And this is the last roughly hundred acres they.

[54:41] Dale.

[54:42] Um.

[54:43] Okay.

[54:44] That's it.

[54:47] Thank you.

[54:48] Yeah.

[54:49] Good question.

[54:50] I got a question in the comment.

[54:51] I think you might have answered it.

[54:52] Because I was going to ask you why three buildings is opposed to one.

[54:55] It's typically it's cost more cost effective to build one.

[54:58] But is it kind of because you want to get going with this?

[55:01] If you build one is quicker than the other two later on or.

[55:03] Right.

[55:04] It's a function of how much power we can deliver right now and we can get enough power from

[55:09] Kind of to do building one.

[55:11] Building two and building three will be phased in.

[55:13] I mean, this is a multi mega watt project from comment and it takes quite a bit of infrastructure

[55:18] Improvements do that.

[55:19] So that's really a function of why that is.

[55:21] There may be other reasons why we have separate buildings.

[55:24] Yeah.

[55:25] Um.

[55:26] The other reasons a lot of people out players don't like to share space.

[55:29] So we are strategic to try to get more.

[55:32] Okay.

[55:34] And then, uh, one other thing is the suggestion.

[55:37] Uh, I was going to ask about this in minimal impact and taxing bodies.

[55:41] I think we all know if you have a fight or facility, a fire department is going to come.

[55:44] And we all know that you're not going to have kids going to school if there's nobody lives there.

[55:47] I would eliminate that because I think it's going to bring in more questions that don't need to be that we all know that.

[55:53] I think if you take that out, that's better.

[55:56] Just when you read it.

[55:57] Because I wouldn't even add a question.

[55:58] So what impact would it happen?

[56:00] And I asked that question.

[56:01] But you leave it out there.

[56:02] I think it take a program that there would be none of that.

[56:04] So just a suggestion.

[56:05] Okay.

[56:06] Okay.

[56:07] All right.

[56:09] One last one.

[56:10] Okay.

[56:11] On your.

[56:12] Did you not say the last one.

[56:13] I know.

[56:14] I did.

[56:15] I know.

[56:16] I mean.

[56:17] I mean.

[56:18] I mean.

[56:19] You know.

[56:20] You got to hit it when it comes.

[56:21] You know.

[56:22] Okay.

[56:23] The viewer to subs station from 88.

[56:24] That'll be a good question.

[56:29] Yeah.

[56:33] That's a massive wall.

[56:35] Great wall of China.

[56:40] You know.

[56:41] You know.

[56:42] You know.

[56:43] Maybe put.

[56:44] Like.

[56:46] I'm talking to the city of Aurora city of light.

[56:49] something that, you know, enhances that a little bit.

[56:53] Well, there's also, and I can bring up the landscape plan, it's heavily, there's

[56:57] going to be Birmingham, trees, so, I mean, what you see there is kind of like, with nothing

[57:04] almost there.

[57:05] So we are buffering with like vegetation, was kind of more of the goal.

[57:10] Really feel diving.

[57:12] Say, obviously.

[57:13] Probably.

[57:14] There's going to be a winner.

[57:15] Yeah, the rendering shows bushes, essentially, right?

[57:18] I mean, there will, there will be trees and Evergreen's that are in front of that wall.

[57:23] Okay, but no, this is, this is, this is doing, this is daylight driving by at night.

[57:30] What do you see?

[57:31] A great wall.

[57:33] And some kind of, I don't think you'll see the wall once the trees are actually established.

[57:39] trees are going to be taller than the wall?

[57:42] Yeah.

[57:43] Yes.

[57:44] Seriously?

[57:45] What about 30 years?

[57:47] I mean, this is, oh, yeah, this is actually an Eola view, not a, not a.

[57:53] Okay.

[57:54] Well, Eola, I mean, you just see in a huge, great wall of China.

[58:01] Yes, it's, it is too full.

[58:03] So one of the purposes of the wall is security, but another purpose of the wall.

[58:07] And this is us taking, or staff consideration, we, we don't want to be an ice war.

[58:12] Right.

[58:12] Um, yeah.

[58:15] No, no chain like no board on board.

[58:18] No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

[58:19] But, you know, buffer, and they gave us what we thought it was a nice looking wall.

[58:24] I think that is an ultra-ro.

[58:26] I don't know what you're doing.

[58:28] It's free care.

[58:29] One with a, with a, with a, it's like staying kind of free care.

[58:33] Exactly.

[58:34] Yeah, it's a stone.

[58:35] So you don't want it to attract attention.

[58:37] You're doing more security as you mentioned, right?

[58:41] Staff, in doing our research,

[58:43] traveled to a number of area, data farms, including one, again,

[58:48] out of Elco village.

[58:51] Fort Knox is less secure than this one site.

[58:56] So I think part of the deal is currently from Rung.

[59:00] They have to ensure absolute security will attract these companies for their data.

[59:06] That's all.

[59:07] Is a large part of the correct?

[59:09] It is, but also don't forget, this is the loan for the substation.

[59:13] And this is something like that.

[59:15] Right.

[59:16] And most of the time, they do not want to, because, you know,

[59:19] you don't want to track attention, is this.

[59:21] So our regulation, the data center, and that'll be applied for it in 24 hours.

[59:26] Mm-hmm.

[59:27] We attract attention to something.

[59:29] That's, it starts to play around.

[59:32] That's just what it has to play around.

[59:34] Okay.

[59:35] All right.

[59:36] Thank you.

[59:38] Okay.

[59:39] Any other questions of the committee?

[59:42] Thank you.

[59:43] Oh, yes.

[59:44] Okay.

[59:45] Motion to approve.

[59:46] All right.

[59:47] Welcome, made by all the women's Smith, second by Alderman Jenkins.

[59:50] This is for the first one, 23 days, zero, zero, two, nine, any more information

[59:55] to present from staff.

[59:57] Okay.

[59:58] All of favor say aye.

[59:59] Aye.

[1:00:00] Motion carried five to nothing. And the second one, two, three, zero, zero, four, four, is the motion. Motion to approve.

[1:00:00] Aye.

[1:00:09] Move by Alderman Jenkins, second by Alderman Franco and anything more to present.

[1:00:13] I know there are just nine conditions that most of the press is engineering.

[1:00:18] Okay. All right. All in favor say aye. I oppose motion carried five to nothing. Thank you. Good luck.

[1:00:26] You're welcome to the roll.

[1:00:28] Yeah.

[1:00:30] Twenty-three, dash, zero, zero, three, seven, ordinance, the next thing property being vacant land.

[1:00:34] Okay, nine, five, five, show more road to the city of Royal Illinois, six, five, five.

[1:00:42] Hey, everyone. I'm Steve. I'm here with the zoning division.

[1:00:47] So I'm just going to pull up the aerial right here.

[1:00:51] This is just a straight annexation for vacant lot.

[1:00:56] Really, to the R1 zoning district, so that the petitioner can build a single family home.

[1:01:05] Scope is a little bit less than what we just saw, but that's pretty much the extent of it.

[1:01:11] There's no zoning changes, variances being requested.

[1:01:17] Like I said, just a single family home being built to code.

[1:01:21] I don't know if we have as a petitioner here.

[1:01:25] I invited him, him and his wife, but I don't know if they made it.

[1:01:30] Doesn't look like that.

[1:01:32] I moved by Alderman Franco, second by Alderman Warman, any further discussion?

[1:01:37] I just wanted to point out that at City Council there will be a dedication for right of way along the Schummer Road,

[1:01:43] front-age and city easement, but that's coming with the next at the City Council as...

[1:01:49] Okay, it's appropriate, so no, don't.

[1:01:52] All in favor, say aye.

[1:01:53] Aye, aye. Post, motion carried, flag nothing.

[1:01:56] The second one, the next one is 22 to 10938 resolution, authorizing the execution of a license agreement.

[1:02:02] Excuse me.

[1:02:04] With our GV investments for a person at the City Council.

[1:02:07] Okay, the 14 West Gleanah Boulevard for the construction and use of a dumpster enclosure.

[1:02:13] To support the Royal Business Center at 31 West Downer Place, Aurora, Illinois.

[1:02:17] Good evening again.

[1:02:19] So before you tonight, it's pretty straightforward.

[1:02:23] The license agreement, to allow the construction of a dumpster enclosure on a city owned property.

[1:02:30] It probably might have gotten unseen, but our GV investment group has owned the Aurora Business Center since 2020.

[1:02:43] And they have put great improvements into the property.

[1:02:51] The property runs with the upper 90% occupancy rate, tonight represented by Ram Caramuri here in the audience.

[1:03:06] The property is also there undergoing the basement renovation where the former pool of the sport center is being filled.

[1:03:22] And it's going to be put at new use that will be for coming.

[1:03:27] And the problem has been the trash collection at the site.

[1:03:34] There's no room outside of the building for a trash enclosure.

[1:03:40] The building is confined to the north by Parkland to the west by right away to the south right away and to the east by the Fox River.

[1:03:52] So because the trash has been an issue and it's not pleasant to see.

[1:04:00] It's in the Fox Walkers.

[1:04:02] So we worked with the RGB investments and we staff and the petitioner came up with a solution.

[1:04:13] Carving out as small pad, as small area for the trash enclosure to be built.

[1:04:21] At the developers expenses, they will build a concrete pad, the trash enclosure nicely done according to the Fox Walk guidelines.

[1:04:35] Once again, in 30 paid by the developer and other than this, I will be more than happy to answer any further questions.

[1:04:50] Okay, well first off, that pool hasn't been filled.

[1:04:54] All these years that pool hasn't been filled.

[1:04:57] Until 2020 that.

[1:05:02] All right, I'm just surprised. I'll tell you.

[1:05:06] Okay, it's not that I remember.

[1:05:09] Okay.

[1:05:10] Because my boss, my chaps again.

[1:05:12] Okay.

[1:05:13] The other thing is, how is it going to look?

[1:05:16] I see the areas by how is it going to look.

[1:05:19] So right behind the building, there's about three to four feet space room between the building and the retaining wall.

[1:05:30] So that retaining wall will have to be rebuilt in order to cope with the concrete pad.

[1:05:40] That there will be extending west to east to accommodate about 20 feet width.

[1:05:51] Then the depth is going to be just the depth of the trash bin.

[1:06:01] Is there any way you can have a rendering of what it looks like when you set up an aerial.

[1:06:09] And if you can see, say, looking to the south.

[1:06:12] Okay.

[1:06:13] Or looking from west to east.

[1:06:15] If you, yes, well, the answer is yes.

[1:06:18] We'll provide a rendering or we'll provide a picture, the picture in the area.

[1:06:24] If you, if you walk behind the the Wabonzi community college and looking south.

[1:06:33] And in front of you, you have the Aurora business center.

[1:06:37] There is already a utility box.

[1:06:40] And that concrete pad is going to set where that utility box is.

[1:06:45] So we'll build up on the existing utility box and we'll will enclose it.

[1:06:51] Okay.

[1:06:52] If you can provide that.

[1:06:53] Sure.

[1:06:54] I'll help myself in our council.

[1:06:56] So what?

[1:07:00] Isn't it with the last one?

[1:07:01] No.

[1:07:02] Great wall up Aurora and that's what it would be.

[1:07:05] Okay.

[1:07:06] Thank you.

[1:07:07] And to the design review committee.

[1:07:11] I'll look this over at all.

[1:07:13] Not yet.

[1:07:14] We want the license agreement to be in place.

[1:07:18] And then the petition will provide the rendering,

[1:07:22] architectural drawings that will be brought forward in the Foxwalk.

[1:07:30] The Fox.

[1:07:32] Sorry.

[1:07:33] The Fox River walk.

[1:07:35] Design committee will review it.

[1:07:37] Okay.

[1:07:39] Move by.

[1:07:40] Open Franco.

[1:07:41] Second by.

[1:07:42] Open Jenkins.

[1:07:44] So the truck drives up on.

[1:07:47] On the street there.

[1:07:49] And then they get out of the truck.

[1:07:51] And they have to physically move the dumpster from this enclosure.

[1:07:54] Correct.

[1:07:55] And jump it.

[1:07:56] And then in motion.

[1:07:57] And maintenance will be up to the developer to keep it up.

[1:08:00] Where the city standards.

[1:08:02] Right.

[1:08:03] Because I'm just concerned about.

[1:08:05] Injeps and breakage and correct.

[1:08:07] Yeah.

[1:08:08] Okay.

[1:08:09] And most likely.

[1:08:11] Yeah.

[1:08:12] I mean, staff.

[1:08:14] The RGB investments.

[1:08:17] The staff.

[1:08:18] Will have to.

[1:08:21] Yeah.

[1:08:22] Move the trash.

[1:08:24] Okay.

[1:08:25] Any other questions?

[1:08:26] On.

[1:08:27] On.

[1:08:28] I suppose.

[1:08:29] Thank you.

[1:08:30] Thanks Alex.

[1:08:31] And the next one.

[1:08:34] Get the second page open here.

[1:08:39] It is 23.005.

[1:08:41] Zero resolution.

[1:08:42] Authorizing.

[1:08:43] I limited operating agreement with North.

[1:08:44] Or abbreviation dispatch academy.

[1:08:47] LLC at the Royal Minister for Airport for a period of one year.

[1:08:51] It's safe.

[1:08:52] Welcome.

[1:08:54] Good afternoon.

[1:08:56] Mr. Chairman.

[1:08:58] Members of the committee.

[1:09:00] And if Steve Anderson with the Royal Airport.

[1:09:03] As most of you probably know.

[1:09:07] Any business doing.

[1:09:10] Doing business at the Royal Municipal Airport.

[1:09:12] It's required to get.

[1:09:14] Operating agreement with the city.

[1:09:16] What you have before you is an operating agreement.

[1:09:19] Prepared.

[1:09:20] By our legal staff for Northrop Aviation dispatch academy.

[1:09:25] They had approached us.

[1:09:28] Approximately a month ago.

[1:09:30] And ask if they could locate their business.

[1:09:33] At the airport.

[1:09:36] It's pretty straightforward.

[1:09:37] I don't know if you have any questions.

[1:09:40] Is anybody from North up here?

[1:09:43] They are not.

[1:09:44] So because I have a question.

[1:09:46] I've never heard this phrase like this.

[1:09:48] A dispatch aircraft dispatch.

[1:09:51] Not an airline dispatcher.

[1:09:53] I mean, what are they?

[1:09:54] I don't know exactly what they're teaching.

[1:09:56] I don't know if anyone familiar to me.

[1:09:59] So they are.

[1:10:00] So John David Northrop is an aviation dispatcher.

[1:10:06] I have a bio here if you want me to read it.

[1:10:09] No, you don't have to.

[1:10:10] If they could.

[1:10:11] I'm just curious.

[1:10:12] I mean, this is not going to be a deal break.

[1:10:14] I just I've just never heard of an aircraft dispatcher.

[1:10:17] I've heard of dispatchers for bodies.

[1:10:19] You know, gut for either entities or the airlines.

[1:10:23] So that was just I just never heard those words put together.

[1:10:26] Right.

[1:10:27] So he is our has 20 years plus being an aviation dispatcher with TWA for example.

[1:10:34] Oh, so they made their wording may just be a little confusing.

[1:10:37] He's teaching to be able to dispatch to go out to work for airlines.

[1:10:40] Yes.

[1:10:41] Yes.

[1:10:42] I just never heard the phrase put this way before.

[1:10:44] Right.

[1:10:45] And so as you can probably imagine, there's FAA guidelines for the types of horses.

[1:10:49] And the number of hours and so forth.

[1:10:52] They are in the process getting their certification.

[1:10:55] This guy is all about guiding eyes and, you know, crossing T's and so forth.

[1:11:03] He's like I said, been in the business for quite some time.

[1:11:07] That's his passion.

[1:11:08] And all of their instructors are currently employed by the aviation industry.

[1:11:14] Okay.

[1:11:15] So.

[1:11:16] Thank you.

[1:11:17] And we in addition, excuse me, we really think this would be a great addition to the airports businesses.

[1:11:24] We have flight schools and so forth.

[1:11:27] And nobody's teaching this and it's really a great career opportunity that not many people know about.

[1:11:33] So and they're very well connected in the industry.

[1:11:36] So if you go through their course, they've got a pretty big network.

[1:11:42] And so in terms of job opportunities, they probably can find something for you.

[1:11:48] Well, the next thing we've got to work on is an FAA training academy because we have three of the most highly visible entities in the country with Chicago Center.

[1:11:57] Right.

[1:11:58] Right.

[1:11:59] I don't hear tower midway tower.

[1:12:00] So that would be a wonderful plumb for us to get if we could start something over there.

[1:12:04] Just run it out there.

[1:12:05] We can work on the future.

[1:12:07] Yeah.

[1:12:09] I'll move by all the limits.

[1:12:10] Second by old magic consenting for this question.

[1:12:12] I'll pay for say aye.

[1:12:13] I suppose motion carries.

[1:12:15] Five nothing.

[1:12:16] Thank you.

[1:12:17] Then we have three resolutions.

[1:12:18] The first one is 23 days zero zero three six resolution.

[1:12:22] Proving a final plan on a lot to a view hall center of Aurora.

[1:12:25] Located near the southwest corner of Ogden Avenue.

[1:12:27] And south state route 59 for many stores.

[1:12:31] Court.

[1:12:32] Comicorder use.

[1:12:34] Thank you.

[1:12:35] Hey everyone.

[1:12:36] Steve again.

[1:12:38] Let me fix the.

[1:12:39] So I'm just going to pull up the subject property on the aerial right now.

[1:12:44] So this is the lot lot to of the U Hall Center of Aurora.

[1:12:50] Lot one is the property directly to the east the existing U Hall facility.

[1:12:55] Which has been there since about at least the final plan was approved in 2000 also for a storage facility.

[1:13:04] So I'll pull up the plan.

[1:13:08] So essentially the petitioners U Hall again.

[1:13:12] They're building proposing a 20,000 square foot one story U Hall facility.

[1:13:20] Just a compliment the existing one there.

[1:13:23] So there's the you can see the site plan up there.

[1:13:29] Yeah, I guess any questions for staff at this point.

[1:13:32] We have the petitioner here.

[1:13:33] They can come up in a minute.

[1:13:34] But any questions for staff at this point?

[1:13:37] Any questions to staff?

[1:13:38] Just welcome a step forward.

[1:13:40] And like Steve said, this actually got zoned.

[1:13:43] What year was it?

[1:13:44] Steve 2000.

[1:13:45] Yeah 2000.

[1:13:46] Yeah.

[1:13:47] I mean, I think it was before I started here.

[1:13:48] That zone.

[1:13:49] So they're now just building out phase two.

[1:13:51] Okay.

[1:13:52] They want to come forward.

[1:13:55] I think they may.

[1:14:01] Since you weren't.

[1:14:09] Good afternoon.

[1:14:10] My name is Mike Cook and with Cook Engineering Group.

[1:14:12] With U Hall with representatives Rick Rotweiler and Angela Farley.

[1:14:17] As staff had mentioned, the original project that U Hall built here was back.

[1:14:22] I think it started the project in 1998.

[1:14:26] And even showing my age, I did the original design on this thing 22 years ago.

[1:14:30] So here I am back again, kind of full circle with the rest of the property.

[1:14:35] So it's basically a storage facility that they're going to complement with the existing facility.

[1:14:40] They've owned the property for the whole time period.

[1:14:43] And there in 10th obviously is to oversee and manage it and work with the city and get this thing built this year.

[1:14:49] So you have any questions?

[1:14:51] We'll be more in happy to answer you.

[1:14:53] Any questions or staff?

[1:14:55] Oh, all of them.

[1:14:57] So obviously you have capacity too.

[1:15:00] It is. It is. We're approaching capacity at the current facility right now. So that's the reason for us being.

[1:15:10] Motion to approve. Second.

[1:15:12] Most have been paid may be by all the women's Smith-Second by all of them. Frank O'Nning for the discussion.

[1:15:17] All in favor say aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. I oppose motion.

[1:15:20] Curried. Nothing. Thank you.

[1:15:22] 23 does 0-0-4-9. Resolution. Probably a final plan allowed seven.

[1:15:26] About seven of Orchard Road subdivision located 13-15 North Orchard Road.

[1:15:31] And all the women has to excuse themselves on this item only.

[1:15:38] So he will join the committee once we make a vote on this song.

[1:15:44] So no for the record. And Tracy take it away.

[1:15:50] Tracy B. Sake, senior planner with planning and zoning division.

[1:15:54] The subject property is LAT7 of the Orchard Road subdivision and is currently zone PDD.

[1:16:01] Plan development district.

[1:16:04] The property is part of the U.S.A. Plan development district.

[1:16:08] And most designated this current commercial in May of 2000.

[1:16:12] The petitioner is requesting a final plan.

[1:16:15] And the detail of the plans is to construct a retail building.

[1:16:20] The first phase of construction would be a 5,053 square foot single user retail building.

[1:16:27] Located on the Northwest portion of the building.

[1:16:32] I'm sorry of the property along with the construction of 47 parking spaces.

[1:16:38] These parking spaces will be located at the north and the east side of the proposed building.

[1:16:44] The proposal includes two north south access drive which will extend to the north property.

[1:16:50] Line allowing for access to the property to the north.

[1:16:54] This drive will also align with the access drive to the south in front of the home depot.

[1:16:59] The other access will be behind the proposed building along the west portion of the property.

[1:17:05] There will be also one east west access drive to the internal drive which is located on the far east side of this property.

[1:17:13] There is a row parking out there.

[1:17:16] I don't know if you've gone out there but there's a row parking on the far east side of the property which will remain.

[1:17:21] And this is being used for overflow parking parking for the strip center in front.

[1:17:28] In front of the lot along orchard road.

[1:17:31] So they're using that kind of as overflow right now.

[1:17:35] And that will remain until they do phase two which then they would extend the parking all the way down.

[1:17:42] The plan for the future phase or phase two includes the construction of approximately 8,500 square feet building addition to the south with a future drive through lane.

[1:17:56] This will serve the end which will serve the end cap along the south property line.

[1:18:03] In addition the parking lot will be extended to the east or east of the building will be expanded to 136 parking spaces.

[1:18:11] The building elevation for the the first phase is a different is consists of different types of fiber cement panels.

[1:18:22] They're proposing to clad the front building elevation with a smooth panel and then highlight the end cap entrance with a taller section.

[1:18:30] Clad it with a cedar like a cedar looking cement panel.

[1:18:35] Those two panels will wrap around the corner of the north elevation also.

[1:18:44] And then the remaining portion of the building would be clad it in the gray brick kind of looking cement panel.

[1:18:53] The building elevation for the future phase would come or it has not been designed yet and that would come in prior to building permits.

[1:19:02] And then obviously landscaping has been implemented throughout the site or is being implemented throughout the site.

[1:19:10] With that the petitioner is here if you have any questions for them or if you have any questions for me I'm happy to.

[1:19:18] And we go back to the final plan because I I was kind of confused about which direction.

[1:19:23] Corrected yes because we're talking to the right we're talking north and south and I was it's kind of it.

[1:19:28] Yeah, I know north and south to the right.

[1:19:34] This way.

[1:19:36] All right home Depot is to your left.

[1:19:41] And the vacant mire to the right.

[1:19:45] Okay.

[1:19:46] All right.

[1:19:47] Or to road runs along the bottom.

[1:19:49] Yes.

[1:19:50] Okay.

[1:19:51] So we're looking at it from the east.

[1:19:53] Okay.

[1:19:54] Now I'm good because I was looking at it from the south.

[1:19:58] From the south.

[1:20:00] All right.

[1:20:01] That makes sense.

[1:20:02] So I don't want to question on that.

[1:20:03] But I'd like to hear the petitioner though if we get a chance.

[1:20:06] All right.

[1:20:07] I would like to come up.

[1:20:09] Can you have any questions for me?

[1:20:13] So this was the land that was owned by mire.

[1:20:16] No.

[1:20:17] No.

[1:20:18] No.

[1:20:19] This this parcels owned by Mr. Daff or was owned by Mr. Daffy.

[1:20:23] It's separate from the mire parcel.

[1:20:26] And here.

[1:20:27] Can you.

[1:20:28] There's a lot.

[1:20:29] There's that area.

[1:20:30] Can you pull up the area that.

[1:20:32] There's that area.

[1:20:33] I will pull up the area for you so that that will kind of help.

[1:20:37] Under maps.

[1:20:43] There you go.

[1:20:44] So the property that.

[1:20:46] The property that is owned by mire is just north of there.

[1:20:50] This is the property that they own.

[1:20:53] Okay.

[1:20:54] So mire had the one that faces orchard.

[1:20:57] Correct.

[1:20:58] Okay.

[1:20:59] All right.

[1:21:00] And they had a lot.

[1:21:01] All right.

[1:21:02] All right.

[1:21:03] Thank you.

[1:21:07] The petitioner wants to for a place.

[1:21:10] Mindown and.

[1:21:12] We don't bite.

[1:21:13] Say howdy.

[1:21:14] And do yourselves.

[1:21:15] I am John Tiber with Tiber Engineering.

[1:21:18] I've.

[1:21:19] Done all of the plans and documents for the owner for.

[1:21:23] This petition.

[1:21:25] It.

[1:21:27] It is quite simple.

[1:21:29] What they're trying to achieve now is just to get this first section of building.

[1:21:33] Constructed.

[1:21:34] That's.

[1:21:35] Why were we're here today to get this initially going there.

[1:21:38] Hoping to get more tenants lined up and get that second edition going as soon as possible.

[1:21:43] But.

[1:21:44] That is what we're trying to do is to get a groundbreaking here early in the spring.

[1:21:51] So we've.

[1:21:53] Been working with Tracy diligently on getting everything resolved on landscaping and easements and.

[1:22:00] The two easements that were on each side of the building.

[1:22:05] We're there to serve access to the myriad development and that's the one thing we found that we need to maintain those.

[1:22:12] So there was some modifications to the site plan and the building to make sure we maintain those easements.

[1:22:18] So there'd be no restrictions on my or getting access to their site.

[1:22:24] So it was.

[1:22:25] That was the one change.

[1:22:27] It came up here late.

[1:22:28] But we've managed to get all of that corrected.

[1:22:32] Is there any other thing on the building or anything you want to add or.

[1:22:39] Hello, good evening.

[1:22:41] Jasmine Garcia.

[1:22:42] Um, representing the Tito group.

[1:22:44] That winners of the property as well as.

[1:22:47] My constituents and actually precincts committee person for district 40.

[1:22:52] And yes, I've definitely believe that to adding a free tail court, a retail space over on orchard is definitely beneficial.

[1:23:00] Um, just the empty need lot that has just always been there.

[1:23:05] We just definitely need to put something on it and just really stimulate the economy even more.

[1:23:11] So and yeah, I think it would just really add value as well as just compliment any of the gray industrial development that is happening in the fifth word.

[1:23:22] So thank you and have a good evening.

[1:23:24] And it's just a spec building or do you know the use.

[1:23:28] Yes, so we are planning for retail space.

[1:23:31] You don't know the use.

[1:23:33] Business.

[1:23:35] Commercial use.

[1:23:36] Okay.

[1:23:38] On the frack.

[1:23:39] Well, I guess what I was going to ask because if you said we're going to build later for future tenants,

[1:23:44] that leads me believe we have a tenant.

[1:23:47] Uh, correct, all of them.

[1:23:48] In fact, we do have a tenant that we that needs to get a special use permit.

[1:23:52] And if that permit is granted, that tenant will come into the space.

[1:23:55] Okay, thank you.

[1:23:56] And can you share with that?

[1:23:58] With that tenant?

[1:23:59] That tenant would be a.

[1:24:01] Can it was dispensary?

[1:24:02] It's provided the city approves there special use permit.

[1:24:05] Okay.

[1:24:06] Thank you.

[1:24:07] That would be no.

[1:24:09] Number four for us.

[1:24:10] Okay.

[1:24:11] Uh, any other questions of the committee?

[1:24:20] Yes.

[1:24:21] Okay, so when people come off of orchard with that entrance to the North, they can make a left and then they're going to come in as a building entrance going to be facing to the east or to the north.

[1:24:46] What?

[1:24:48] Okay, it's going to be facing the east, so a person will come in, live in, and then the future expansion is to the west.

[1:24:57] Future expansion is to the south.

[1:25:00] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

[1:25:03] Or at this to the right.

[1:25:06] Yeah.

[1:25:07] Yeah.

[1:25:08] Put it like this.

[1:25:09] Okay.

[1:25:15] Here.

[1:25:17] Home Depot.

[1:25:19] So when I come off, I come off orchard and I make that left to go to the road that runs right to the front of the road.

[1:25:30] I ask this here.

[1:25:31] Uh-huh.

[1:25:32] Oh, there's a lot of people inside.

[1:25:38] Oh, yeah.

[1:25:40] Uh-huh.

[1:25:41] Oh, the map.

[1:25:43] There you go.

[1:25:44] That's what I'm looking at.

[1:25:54] Okay, but if I'm coming in off at the north.

[1:25:56] Make a left.
