DEVELOPMENT SERVICES MEMORANDUM No. 12-44 September 12,2012 TO: Honorable Mayor Michael T. McElroy and City Council FROM: Ryan P.McCrady, City Manager Billy Tyus,Assistant City Manager Suzan M. Stickle, Senior Planner Joselyn A. Stewart,Transportation Planner SUBJECT: Amend PD Planned Development District at 180 West Imboden Drive and 2110-2181 Imboden Place SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the Planned Development amendment with the following conditions: 1.)Final site, landscaping and lighting plans shall be submitted to and approved by the Department of Planning and Building Services, Public Works Department and the Fire Department prior to building permits being released; and 2.) A Subdivision Final Plat must be submitted to and approved by the Department of Planning and Building Services, Public Works Department and the Fire Department prior to building permits being released. The City Plan Commission voted 6-0 to recommend approval of this petition at the September 6, 2012 meeting; the minutes of the meeting are attached. BACKGROUND: In October 2011 the City Council voted 7-0 to approve the rezoning from R-5 Special Use Permit and R-5 Residential Development Plan to PD Planned Development. The petitioner proposed to rezone property to allow for the construction of a 20 unit memory care facility. The petitioner proposes to amend the PD Planned Development Plan to still allow for the construction of a single story,20 unit memory care facility. When the developer was in the process of obtaining the necessary State of Illinois approvals it was a requirement of the State of Illinois Department of Public Health that the proposed new memory care facility be attached to the existing Imboden Creek Living Center nursing home. Building a separate stand-a-lone building would not be feasible due to the fact the nursing home and memory care facility would have had to have separate staff, nurses and an administrator to run the new facility. No co- mingling of staff could occur. The proposed building will be built on the same property as the previously approved PD plan with the exception that it will be located nearer to the existing building and attached by a corridor. POTENTIAL OBJECTION: There were no known objectors at the Plan Commission Meeting. INPUT FROM OTHER SOURCES: The PD Planned Development amendment has been reviewed by the City's Technical Review Committee; Planning, Engineering and Fire have approved the amendment. STAFF REFERENCE: Any additional questions may be forwarded to Joselyn A. Stewart at 424-2782 or at jstewart e decaturil.gov. BUDGET/TIME IMPLICATIONS: None.
