12.7 -1 Purpose and Intent
In order to promote the goals and objectives of the
Village's Comprehensive Plan, certain development
incentive provisions are established for the area
formed by those proerties lying between the Chicago,
Milwaukee, St. Paul, and Pacific Railroad right -of -way
and Waukegan Road, which properties front on the west
side of Hoffman Lane, on Osterman, on Waverly Court,
or on Central Avenue. Those provisions are established
to further the following specific purposes:
1. To provide an incentive for the redevelopment of
this area utilizing the Village Center /Residential
PUD procedures for the use and development of
multifamily dwellings.
2. To provide for the redevelopment of the area
formed by those properties between the Chicago,
Milwaukee, St. Paul, and Pacific Railroad right -
of -way and Waukegan Road, which properties front
on the wet side of Hoffman Lane, or on the north
side of -Osterman utilizing the Village Center/
Commercial Planned Unit Development procedures
for the use and development of those properties
for any office uses and for mixed use structures
containing office uses and multifamily dwellings.
3. To provide good access, both pedestrian -and
vehicular, to the properties- throughout the area
and to the commercial areas to the north and east.
4. To provide pedestrian amenities and open space in
order to produce a more attractive-area.
In furthering the above, three specific categories of
public amenities will be considered in determining the
amount of development incentives to be given:
1. Open space amenities which could include wider
setbacks than those required, public plazas and
parks, enclosed parking, or other items which
would serve to increase the amount and quality of
useable open space in a particular development.
2. Traffic and pedestrian amenities which would
serve to enhance the traffic and pedestrian flow
which could include open arcades, wider sidewalks,
or interconnections with surrounding developments.
3. Use amenities which include developing properties
with those uses designated in the Village's Com-
prehensive Plan and specifically developing a lot
as part of the development, which lot by reason
of its location between other parcels under common
ownership, would otherwise be rendered undevelop-
able.
12.7.2 Maximum Development Incentives Allowed
Modification of the bulk, height, and setback require-
ments are possible, but in no event shall the incen-
tives permit development in excess of the following
limitations:
1. The maximum building height is limited to 55 feet.
2. The maximum ground coverage permitted if the
majority of the required parking is provided
within the building shall not exceed 50 %.
3. The maximum reduction in required setbacks shall
be limited to that which is necessary to provide
adequate fire protection for the particular
building proposed.
12.7.3 Criteria
In determining the extent of development incentives to
be granted for the inclusion of any amenity, the fol-
lowing are to be considered:
1. The amount of floor area by which the total floor
area of the building is reduced due to the inclu-
sion of the amenity.
2. The direct construction cost of the amenity.
3. The amount of continuing maintenance required for
the amenity.
4. The degree to which the inclusion of the amenity
furthers the objectives of the Village Center/
Residential Planned Unit Development District or

and documentation necessary to determine the
amount of development incentives to be given.
