PLAN COMMISSION AGENDA REPORT SUBJECT: 150 and 191 Linden St., Saints Faith, Hope and Charity Case No. 16-02-SU (continued from previous meeting) DATE: February 18, 2016 PREPARED BY: Brian Norkus, Assistant Director of Community Development Saints Faith, Hope and Charity is requesting a Special Use Permit and variations in order to build an addition consisting of a Parish Center east of the main church, together with circulation and parking improvements. In addition to the proposed improvements on the parcels east of Linden St., a synthetic turf athletic field and parking improvements are also proposed on the parcels west of Linden St. The Plan Commission received information and public comment at its January 27, 2016 meeting, and continued the case to allow further study of certain building and site plan elements. The applicants have submitted an addendum to their previous written application materials (Attachment A), summarizing the various changes to the plan. In addition, the addendum notes that the Church invited neighbors to meetings on January 28th and February 17 to discuss concerns and describe changes. Finally, the addendum describes neighbor response that the Church has received. Revised Plans (Attachment B) incorporate the following changes: The Synthetic turf field size has been reduced in area by 15%, to a total area of 27,000sf. The turf field has narrowed, increasing the setback along the western property line from 12’ to 15’. The play equipment zone south of the turf field has been further refined, detailed as two separate spaces; a hard court area is described as accommodating playground games and PE class instruction, and an adjacent area holds a play set. The hard court has shifted to the east, increasing the setback along the western property line from 12’ to 48’. The play equipment has shifted to the east, increasing the setback along the western property line from 12’ to 28’. In addition, the applicant’s report that the following additional changes have been implemented, following a neighbor meeting held by the Church: The combined size of all elements proposed has been reduced from the originally submitted and approved plan. Page 1 Faith, Hope & Charity Feb. 18, 2016 Page 2 of 5 The setbacks have increased, moving all play activity away from the adjacent property. The plant types have changed and trees have been specified to attract birds and other native wildlife. All evergreens were removed and border landscaping was increased. An open picket fence (4’) has been specified instead of a solid board fence (6’) on the north property line. An organic “cool temp” turf infill system will be specified to keep surface temperatures of the turf lower. Plan Commission standards for review The Plan Commission is charged with evaluating each Special Use Permit request for consistency with the Comprehensive Plan. To assist the Plan Commission in making such findings, draft findings are attached (identical to those included in the January meeting materials). Draft findings represent relevant policy statements and recommendations contained in the Winnetka Comprehensive Plan. These findings are intended to provide a means by which the project can be informally “scored”, and thus evaluated for conformance with the Comprehensive Plan. Consideration by other Boards On January 11 the Zoning Board of Appeals voted unanimously to recommend approval of the Special Use Permit and associated zoning variations. The Design Review Board considered this matter at its January 21 meeting, and is scheduled to resume discussion at its February 18th meeting. This request is subject to final approval by the Village Council.

Page 2D Date: February 24, 2016 Attachment A Page 2E Page 2F Page 2G Attachment B Brian Please find attached our Design Review Board Resubmittal for the Saints Faith, Hope & Charity – Parish Center project for consideration by the Village of Winnetka at the February 18, 2016 DRB Meeting. Updates have been made in response to comments at our January 21, 2016 DRB presentation, as well as subsequent feedback and meetings with the neighbors, including: • • • Roof plan, axonometric views, rendering: Refinement of mechanical equipment screening Roof plan, elevations, rendering, exterior details: Refinement of canopy design Proposed Siteplan and Landscape plans: See narrative below: Siteplan Narrative: The site plan for the SS Faith Hope & Charity Campus has gone through a number of detailed refinements since receiving approval at the January 11th Zoning Board of Appeals. These refinements were primarily concentrated on the West Campus Athletic Field portion of the property. It is of note that though the details of the site plan on both the West and East portions of the campus have become more defined, the Variances that were approved at the ZBA have been observed. The West Campus details • The Synthetic turf field size has been reduced to 27,000sf. This is an area reduction of 15%. • The play equipment zone has been divided into two adjacent spaces. A hard court area for playground games and to accommodate PE class instruction and a play set. • The turf field has narrowed, increasing the setback along the western property line from 12’ (“by right”) to 15’. • The hard court has shifted to the east, increasing the setback along the western property line from 12’ to 48’. • The play equipment has shifted to the east, increasing the setback along the western property line from 12’ to 28’. Communication with the adjacent neighbors A meeting between the church & school administration, field committee and the adjacent neighbors was held on the evening of January 28th. All adjacent neighbors were present. Some neighbors had concerns and comments that were heard by the FHC staff and some had questions that were sufficiently answered by the OKW team. At the conclusion of the meeting most neighbors felt positive about the project and were supportive of the efforts. The neighbors offered suggestions of items they’d like altered or removed from the prosed plan. After much thought and consideration the FHC team has identified several adjustments they can make as a compromise to these requests, without negatively impacting the programming intended for the space. • The combined size of all elements proposed has been reduced from the originally submitted and approved plan. • The setbacks have increased, moving all play activity away from the adjacent property. • The plant types have changed and trees have been specified to attract birds and other native wildlife. • All evergreens were removed and border landscaping was increased. • An open picket fence (4’) has been specified instead of a solid board fence (6’) on the north property line. • An organic “cool temp” turf infill system will be specified to keep surface temperatures of the turf lower. (Specification cut sheets submitted) In the spirit of collaboration, FHC intends to host a follow-up meeting with the neighbors to go over the proposed changes prior to the Design Review Board hearing on February 18th. Feel free to call or email if you have questions or concerns. Regards, Amy Amy Wolkwitz Senior Associate 312.798.7724 OKW Architects, Inc. 600 W.

The proposed classrooms would be located southwest of the existing school building, setback 10’-0” from the west property line (Park District property). Schools are permitted within residentially zoned areas, but are classified as a “Special Use” in order to allow for the evaluation of proposed modifications. Establishment or the alteration of Special Uses is subject to review by the Plan Commission, Zoning Board of Appeals, and Design Review Board, with final consideration by the Village Council. As proposed, two modular units would be located southwest of the existing school, with units to be painted a color to match the existing school brick. Lighting will be provided through a combination of existing pole mounted fixtures, supplemented by lights at each entry and on the underside of a covered canopy connecting the modular units to the main school building. Plan Commission standards for review The attached application materials address specifically six standards for the granting of a Special Use Permit, which are subject to evaluation by Zoning Board of Appeals, Plan Commission, and Village Council. The Plan Commission is charged with evaluating each Special Use Permit request for consistency with the Comprehensive Plan. To assist the Plan Commission in making such findings, draft findings are attached, which represent relevant policy statements and recommendations contained in the Winnetka Comprehensive Plan. These findings are intended to provide a means by which the project can be informally “scored”, and thus evaluated for conformance with the Comprehensive Plan. Consideration by other Advisory Boards This matter is scheduled for consideration by the Design Review Board on February 18th and by the Zoning Board of Appeals on March 14th. The Village Council has final jurisdiction on this request.

Passed by a vote of in favor and opposed. Page 5 Date: February 24, 2016 Page 6 Page 7 Attachment 1 Explanation and Resolution of Need There are three primary and related reasons for requesting temporary classrooms on the Crow Island School property: ● Current enrollment requires 21 classroom “sections” ● Enrollment projections are expected to slightly decline ● School Board is considering adding an Extended Day Kindergarten program Current Enrollment: Typically, there are four sections (homerooms) per grade level (20 total “sections”) at Crow Island School. Each section requires a classroom space for the core instructional program; however, students also participate in specials during the week. Specials include kinetic wellness, art, music, Spanish, and Resource Center time. Each special also requires a space for instruction. Although less than ideal, we have needed to utilize shared spaces to meet the demands of the schedule. The first grade enrollment this school year is currently at 91, and students are divided into five sections. This additional fifth section required a classroom space, which displaced space from other programs. It also required additional shared spaces for specials, as each section of students requires 13, 30-minute specials classes per week. While the core instructional program is offered with fidelity, the instructional space is limited and tight. Every available space in the building is being utilized for programming, including small group instruction, interventions, and individualized student support. Enrollment Projections: Crow Island School’s enrollment is expected to slightly decline over the next three years (2015 384 students; 2019 - 368 students) with an expected loss of the fifth grade level section in 2019 (348 students). Therefore, more costly and long-term solutions, such as redistricting or construction, are not as feasible as an intermediate solution. The District will continue to monitor enrollment and other alternatives if actual enrollment differs from the projection. Extended Kindergarten Day: The District is in its final stages of completing a study regarding extending the kindergarten day at The Winnetka Public Schools. Currently, all kindergarten students attend school for half day sessions, which enables each classroom to serve two sections of kindergarten. Extending the Page 8 kindergarten day will require one additional classroom for each section of kindergarten. Based on enrollment projections and experiences from other schools, the District anticipates that kindergarten enrollment will increase if an extended day option is made available. This could result in the need for up to 10 kindergarten classrooms across the three elementary schools. Current capacity for extended day kindergarten instruction across the three elementary buildings is eight classrooms. Rationale: Adding two temporary classrooms at Crow Island School for the next three school years (2016 2019) allows for space relief and greater flexibility while the extra section of students (currently in 1st grade) are attending Crow Island School. There will be more space to meet with children requiring small group instruction. The use of shared instructional space will also be minimized due to the extra temporary classrooms. These classrooms would installed in summer of 2016. The second two classroom unit may be installed if an extended day Kindergarten program is approved for implementation for the 2017-2018 school year unless other alternatives are considered. The School Board is expected to vote on this topic in May 2016. These classrooms would not be installed until summer of 2017. The addition of temporary classrooms also allows the The Winnetka Public School District time to monitor enrollment patterns across the three elementary schools and to study options for boundary shifts to better balance enrollment across our three K-4 buildings. This sort of study requires extensive input from our community and strategic planning for communication and decision-making. If enrollment projections prove low, it will also afford us time to consider construction needs and planning, if necessary. In summary, by 2019, the District will have a long-term plan to address the enrollment patterns and building capacity at our five schools. The temporary classroom space use for up to the next four years provides us with the necessary time to thoughtfully plan our course of action with community input and intensive study. It is also possible that the situation may self-correct and the school could resume operations within its existing structure. Page 9 Attachment 2 Compliance with the standards for granting a Special Use Permit is addressed as follows: 1. The modular unit will be installed and maintained in compliance with the requirements of the Illinois School Code governing the education and safety of children and in accordance with applicable Village ordinances and codes. 2. The modular unit is being positioned in a location that is furthest removed from residential property and is adjacent to a wooded area. Landscaping will be added around other sides of the unit. 3. The positioning of the modular unit does not create an impediment to other development. A large amount of open District land remains between the unit and residential development. 4. The positioning of the modular unit does not impact pedestrian and vehicle traffic. 5. Utilities and other connectivity to the building and safety features will be added in accordance with the Illinois School Code and applicable local ordinances and codes. Access roads and drainage will be maintained. 6. Installation and operation of the modular units will confirm with the requirements of the Illinois School Code and applicable Village ordinances and codes.
