The current membership consists of 170 families with full memberships and 35 families with winter memberships; the maximum allowed membership by charter is 270 families and that remains unchanged. Full membership was achieved in the 60’s and 70’s with a waiting list and achieving this once again is a goal. Tennaqua is evaluating the condition the existing facilities and the desired improvements and enhancements to the club. The long range planning committee has established a master plan outlining the various improvements desired, as well as the necessary renovation or replacement of the existing structures on the grounds. These various improvements will enable the club to maintain viability well into the future. It is envisioned (hoped) that the master plan would be implemented over the next six to eight years, sooner if possible. The order in which the various items will be implemented is still open and subject to fundraising and economic conditions. The master plan consists of the following items: 1. Renovating the four existing Har-Tru (clay) tennis courts, two of which (courts 1 & 2) are currently lighted. There will be no change to the existing 10’-0” tennis court fencing. 2. Add lights to courts 3 and 4, and replace all of the existing light fixtures on courts 1 and 2 to match the new fixtures. The existing light poles on courts 1 and 2 are brown and 30 feet high; the new poles will match the existing. Fixture information (600W LED) is attached. 3. Provide viewing/resting areas east of courts 1 and 3 and add trees and enhance the landscaping along the adjacent path. 4. Relocate courts 5 and 6 (coated asphalt) and replace them with Har-Tru courts. The relocated court 5 is 81’-4”± from the east property line. The new fencing required to enclose the tennis courts will match the existing 10’-0” tennis court fencing. 5. Provide a tennis pavilion (25’ x 37’) between the relocated courts 5 and 6 adding trees and landscaping in this area. The pavilion is a roofed shelter, slab on grade and open on all sides. The height to the ridge of the pavilion from grade is 20’-4”±. 43 SOUTH VAIL AVENUE ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, IL 60005 P 847.392.9200 F 847.392.9009 6. Remove four existing coated asphalt courts (7 thru 10) and replace with Har- Tru courts, in the same location. Court 7, the east most court is 36’-8”± from the east property line, no change. There will be no change to the existing 10’- 0” tennis court fencing. 7. Install two ‘Pop’ tennis courts (40’ x 80’ each, fence enclosed) between the west side of the tennis courts and the highway sound wall on the west property line. The fence will be vinyl coated chain link to match the existing fencing around the tennis courts. 8. Provide for future parking north of courts 7 thru 10, a single loaded drive with 90 degree parking for 24 cars. This area is screened to the north with existing trees and heavy brush. 9. Provide lights, two poles, on the existing Sport Court. The poles will be on the east side of the court with the fixture facing away from the neighboring homes to the east. The light poles will be brown and 20 feet high with shrouds to prevent light spillage onto the adjacent properties. The fixtures will be LED’s similar to those shown for the tennis courts (attached) but 240W. The poles will be 74’-0”± from the east property line. 10. Provide for future parking north of the Sport Court and east of the Pool Building, 80 degree parking for 21 cars. This future parking lot is shown on exhibit 3, which shows the existing parking lot layout and the location of trees adjacent to the future lot. No trees will be removed to add this future parking lot. 11. Provide two additional paddle courts (platform tennis) west of courts 1 and 2 (existing), these courts will have lights that match the lights on the existing courts. The new courts will be 205’-0”± from the south property line and 259’-8”± from the east property line. Placing the proposed courts between the existing courts and the highway sound wall will require removing more of the existing berm. The existing paddle courts are 177’-4”± from the south property line and 130’-8”± from the east property line [Exhibit 4]. In addition to the existing trees and heavy brush along the east and south property line, we are proposing to add additional screening as shown on the site plan. The proposed screening will consist of eighteen, eight foot Norway Spruce, planted at 20 feet on center, staggered. Norway Spruce, are fast growing with a mature spread of 25 to 30 feet and mature height of 40 to 60 feet. 12. Expand the existing elevated deck between the pool and paddle lodge. Provide a roofed shelter (25’ x 42’) on the paddle deck, open on all sides (maybe screened) with an outdoor fireplace and grilling station, 160’-3”± from the east property line. Note that the existing paddle lodge is 159’± from the east property line. The height to the ridge of the shelter from the raised deck is 20’-4”±; the height from existing grade is 23’-4”±. 13. Provide two, Bocce’ courts between the pool and paddle court 1, west of the expanded deck and shelter. This will require removing a portion of the existing berm to the west that was the original sound barrier to the expressway before the precast concrete sound wall was installed. 43 SOUTH VAIL AVENUE ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, IL 60005 P 847.392.9200 F 847.392.9009 14. Replace the existing original L-shaped pool, pool deck, fencing, lighting, cabanas and related infra-structure with a rectangular pool, pool deck, fencing, lighting, cabanas and new related infra-structure. The fencing to enclose the pool will be similar to the existing fencing enclosing the pool. The existing fencing (vinyl and steel) will be reused (if possible), see exhibits 5 and 6. 15. Renovate the existing pool building as required to remove and replace the existing pool infra-structure. The existing pool building is 119’-5”± from the east property line, no change. 16. Renovate and upgrade the existing pool locker rooms in the existing pool building. 17. Remove and replace the existing club house (2,610 SF) with a new club house of approximately 6,490 SF with covered porches. The expanded club house will include a larger dining/lounge area, pro shop, management office, kitchen, fitness office, fitness areas and locker rooms. The club house floor will be raised to the same elevation as the existing pool and tennis decks and the entry sidewalk will be sloped to provide accessibility for the handicapped. The architectural design will be “shingle style” similar to the existing paddle lodge, see exhibits 6 and 17. A dumpster/trash enclosure, see exhibit 18, will be added as part of the club house project. 18. Remove a portion of the existing berm to the west to allow for a picnic and playground area west of the proposed clubhouse. Provide a lighted path from the club house around the west side of the pool to the proposed Bocce’ courts and shelter on the paddle deck. The lighting is proposed to be ‘string lights’ suspended from 9 foot poles. The combined side yard (east and west) setback requirement is 25 feet (minimum yard of 10 feet). The rear yard (south) setback requirement is 50 feet. The front yard (north) setback is 30 feet. The maximum lot coverage allowed is 35% of the lot area of 432,698.5 square feet (9.93 acres) or 151,444.48 square feet. The existing lot coverage is 1.71% or 7,388 square feet. The ultimate proposed lot coverage is 3.04% or 13,160 square feet. Our goal for this approval process is to have the master plan and all of its elements approved in concept. As we decide to proceed with various elements of the plan we would provide the additional detailed information necessary such, as survey information (including trees), civil engineering, detailed landscape and architectural drawings for permit as required. We envision the construction happening in phases and that construction would start after Labor Day for each phase and that the work would be substantially done by Memorial Day of the next year. We propose that as long as our detailed plans are substantially the same (the Village would determine substantially the same) as we are proposing now and meet the requirements of the Village that the phase could be approved by staff administrative review and building department review without going through the full (5 month) public hearing and approval process. 43 SOUTH VAIL AVENUE ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, IL 60005 P 847.392.9200 F 847.392.9009 The Tennaqua Board has established a tentative schedule of the proposed improvements [subject to fund raising and financing] starting in the fall of each year as follows: Year 1 [2018-19] - Tennis court renovations, court relocation, light two additional courts, tennis pavilion and Pop tennis courts.
