Swartz Chairman, Plan Commission Village of Deerfield 850 Waukegan Road Deerfield, IL 60015 Dear Chairman Swartz and Commissioners: 847 - 945 -1678 Fax: 847 - 945 -9511 The Very Rev. William D. Roberts, Rector Dean of the Waukegan Deanery May 25, 2006 On behalf of St. Gregory's Episcopal Church I am pleased to submit f r your review our Application for Special Use in order to operate "St. Gregory's Episcopa I l Preschool." St. Gregory's has a long history of hospitality in the Village. We make ur parking lot available to the Park District, to Wilmot Elementary School, and to B' ai Tikvah. Since 1957 we have sponsored Boy Scout Troop 50, and most recently we h ve welcomed members of the Townley Women's Club Bridge Group. Over the past two years we have been looking into new ways to extend) our hospitality and serve the Deerfield community, and several parishioners have mentioned the idea of offering a Preschool. In exploring that possibility we have discovered that the preschools in Deerfield and our surrounding communities have waiting lists, and that a need exists for more quality preschools. Our Parish would like to offer this Preschool because we believe that e ly childhood education creates the roots for developing the whole child. To that end, our Preschool would provide for the developmentally appropriate social, emotional, c:ignitive, spiritual, and physical needs of young children. By teaching The Creative Curtimilum ® used by Deerfield District 109, we would be able to offer our students a seamlc ss transition into our Village's kindergartens. We are working with Mary Evans - Livorsi, the Illinois Department of C ildren & Family Services' Day Care Licensing Representative for Lake County. She has already visited our facility and we will implement all of her recommendations. We hav a been issued DCFS Provider ID number 45433, and we will meet or exceed all DCF , standards. Donald Bland, a Fire Prevention Inspector from the Office of the State Fire Marshal has visited St. Gregory's, and we are working locally with Fire Marshal Chlistopher Johnson from the Deerfield- Bannockburn Fire Department to comply with all fie safety code requirements. "We are ambassadors for Christ, God appealing to the world through u' [ibe; " 2 Corinthians 5:20 0 - 0(0-:54 5-7 Of f 2 For academic year 2006 -2007, we would offer two -day, three -day, and five -day programs for three -year olds in the morning, and for four- and five -year olds in the afternoon. We would also offer a two -day afternoon Kindergarten Enrichment program. The morning programs would meet Monday through Friday from 9:00 until 11:30 a.m., and the afternoon programs from 12:30 until 3:00 p.m. The maximum number of morning students would be 17, with 3 to 4 teachers in each class; and the maximum number of afternoon students would be 17 on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and 34 on Tuesdays and Thursdays, with 3 to 4 teachers in each class. During our second academic year, 2007 -2008, we would offer two sets of three -year old programs in the morning, and two sets of four- and five -year old programs in the afternoon. The maximum number of students on any given day, morning or afternoon, would be 34, with 3 to 4 teachers in each class. Appendix A, "Full Enrollment Scenarios," shows three possible combinations for the enrollment maximums described in the last two paragraphs. Appendix B, "St. Gregory's Episcopal Preschool Schedule," details our morning and afternoon program schedules. In the future we may wish to allow parents to drop off their children as early as 7 a.m. and /or to pick up their children as late as 6:00 p.m. Whatever activities or enrichment programs we would offer in addition to our regular morning and afternoon programs would not exceed 34 students and would provide the same minimum ratio of 1 teacher to every 5 or 6 students. During academic year 2006 -2007, our three preschool programs would primarily use our first floor southwest Christian Education wing (Appendix C, "Classroom Site Plan"). This area is one large classroom divided into three sections. The morning and afternoon programs would use section C1, and the afternoon Kindergarten Enrichment program would use section C2. For academic year 2007 -2008, the two morning programs would be divided between sections C 1 and C2, and the two afternoon programs would be similarly divided. The Preschool staff would use the Christian Education Office (C3) for administrative work. The Preschool Entrance (C4) has an outdoor porch where children would be sheltered while waiting to be picked up. We would like to affix our Preschool logo to the right of the Preschool entrance as identification signage in accordance with the Village of Deerfield's Zoning Ordinance 9.01 -A,1 d (Appendix D, "Sign Proposal") . We would create a special drop -off and pick -up zone between the Deerfield Road driveway and the Preschool entrance by using only our Wilmot Road driveway for entering and exiting our parking lot (Appendix E, "Traffic and Parking Study"— Civil Tech Engineering, Inc., Technical Memorandum, Traffic Impact Analysis). oR*t>. 0 - 0c0-3� P_x.e -3.aofy 3 SPECIAL USE, CRITERIA 1. Compatible with Existing Development The nature and intensity of the Preschool's activities would be appreciably less than some of the other activities that currently take place in the Church building, including our Church School on Sunday mornings (with almost 90 :children and teachers) and our sponsored Boy Scout Troop 50 on Wednesday evenings (with about 40 boys and adults). We would not need any new structures to operate our Preschool, so there would be no impediment to the development and improvement of surrounding property. 2. Lot of Sufficient Size The Preschool would require a small proportion of our lot (Appendix C, "Classroom Site Plan, and Appendix E, "Traffic and Parking Study"— Civil Tech Engineering, Inc., Technical Memorandum, Traffic Impact Analysis, Exhibit C). 3. Traffic During Preschool hours traffic would enter and exit only from Wilmot Road, and this would minimize any adverse effects on surrounding properties. We would create a special drop -off and pick -up zone between the closed Deerfield Road driveway and the Preschool's entrance on our southeast porch (Appendix E, "Traffic and Parking Study" — Civil Tech Engineering, Inc., Technical Memorandum, Traffic Impact Analysis). 4. Parking and Access Our parking lot would be more than adequate for our Preschool, and we would still be able to accommodate our Wilmot Elementary School and Park District guests, as well as the congregants from B'nai Tikvah on their Holy Days (Appendix E, "Traffic and Parking Study" — Civil' Tech Engineering, Inc., Technical Memorandum, Traffic Impact Analysis). 5. Effect on Neighborhood The proposed Preschool would significantly and materially enhance the health, safety, and welfare of the public by offering a quality Preschool to the community; and because its activities would be similar to those already offered by St. Gregory's and Wilmot Elementary School, the Preschool would not adversely affect other property, neighborhood improvements, or property values in the surrounding area. 6. Adequate Facilities St. Gregory's facilities are more than adequate for all of our existing uses, and the Preschool will operate at times and in areas of the church building which are currently unused or little used. olzU• 0 -0(Q-3y ex. $ 3.3 4 y 0 7. Adequate buffering Thanks to the Village's widening of our parkways and sidewalks last summer, we have ample buffering along Deerfield Road and Wilmot Road to our south and west; and the shrubbery and trees along our border with Mitchell Park to our east and north provides adequate buffering while allowing mutually compatible use by the Park District and St. Gregory's. We believe that we have met the standards for a Special Use, and we hope you will concur and grant us permission to open our Preschool to the benefit of our Village and its children.

The primary structure located on the southern portion of the property is the existing church building itself, which contains the sanctuary (worship space), a gathering hall, church offices and a number of classrooms. Other buildings on the property include two houses and a garage which are used by the Rector and a Youth Pastor as their primary residences. There are currently two, full- access driveways serving the portion of the site occupied by the existing church building, one driveway to Deerfield Road and one to Wilmot Road. These driveways provide access to a 120 space parking lot, located primarily along the eastern edge of the property. There are also separate driveways to each of the houses on the property. _450 E Devon Ave, Suite 300, Itasca, IL 60143 �0 c D. o -ow-3 4 St. Gregory's Episcopal Preschool Deerfield Road and Wilmot Road Deerfield, Illinois May 22, 2006 - Page 2 of 4 Existing Roadway Conditions The existing St. Gregory's property is located on the northeast corner of Deerfield Road and Wilmot Road. Deerfield Road is a major east -west arterial roadway consisting of two through lanes in each direction west of Wilmot Road. East of Wilmot Road Deerfield Road tapers to one through lane in each direction. It should, however be noted that there are two westbound approach lanes on Deerfield Road at the Wilmot Road intersection. Wilmot Road is a north -south secondary arterial roadway with one through lane in each direction. Separate left turn lanes are provided on all four approaches to the intersection. This intersection was recently improved as part of a Village of Deerfield project on Deerfield Road between Wilmot Road and Chestnut Street. Construction of the improvement utilized Federal, State and Village funds and, as such, a Phase I Project Report was completed for the improvement. Some exhibits prepared as part of the Project Report are contained in the Appendix and are referenced throughout this memorandum. Description of the Proposed Change in Use St. Gregory's Parish desires to begin a faith -based preschool program to be housed within their current facilities. The goal of the parish is to provide a morning and an afternoon program, Monday through Friday, with a maximum of 34 students on -site at any one time. The morning session would meet from 9:00 A.M. to 11:30 A.M., with the afternoon session beginning at 12:30 P.M. and ending at 3:00 P.M. The one hour separation between programs would insure that the pick -up of children from the A.M. session would not overlap the drop -off of the P.M. students. Additionally, with these hours there would be no additional traffic generated during the peaks periods of the Deerfield Road /Wilmot Road intersection of 7:30 -8:30 A.M. and 4:45 -5:45 P.M. which were identified in the Project Report for Deerfield Road. The location within the building proposed for the preschool is an area of classrooms in the southern section of the main building (closest to Deerfield Road). The building entrance on the southeast interior corner of the building would be the location used to pick -up and drop -off children. These locations are indicated in Exhibit B. As part of the pick -up procedure it is anticipated that parents would stay in their cars and that the preschool teachers and aids would unload the children and escort them into the building. Similarly, after each session drivers would queue in a pick -up line with the children being brought to a common loading point. Off• -OLD- 54 Ex. q .9 a-F `f St. Gregory's Episcopal Preschool Deerfield Road and Wilmot Road Deerfield, Illinois May 22, 2006 - Page 3 of 4 Site Circulation The location proposed for the pick -up /drop -off point is located 40 feet from the driveway to Deerfield Road. We believe that allowing traffic to utilize this driveway during the pick -up and drop -off periods would add congestion and confusion to the area where loading was taking place. it would be our recommendation that the Deerfield Road driveway be closed during these periods and that all access to*and from the site be provided via the Wilmot Road driveway. The blocking of the Deerfield Road driveway could initially be accomplished with traffic control cones. Should the cones prove insufficient to deter traffic from using this driveway, a more permanent measure such as a swinging gate or a chain across the driveway could be employed. in any case, prominent signage should also be displayed to alert motorists that the driveway is not available for use. Requiring all traffic to use Wilmot Road to access the site provides a number of advantages. Traffic volumes are significantly lower on Wilmot Road than on Deerfield Road, so the movements into the site can be made with less obstruction to the through traffic and with fewer conflicts from opposing traffic. Additionally, the recent improvements to the Deerfield Road /Wilmot Road intersection provided a painted median area in front of the Wilmot Road driveway capable of storing three left turning vehicles out of the through traffic lanes while they wait for adequate gaps in the oncoming traffic. Lastly, directing all traffic to the Wilmot Road driveway creates a natural queue storage area on -site for approximately 20 vehicles between Wilmot Road and the designated pick -up location. Under most circumstances, this should be sufficient to address the queuing requirements of the preschool. in order to make this on -site traffic pattern work properly it will also be necessary to restrict parking during preschool hours in the six spaces by the designated loading point as well as in the first seventeen spaces on the east side of the parking lot opposite the loading area. This will provide adequate space for parents to make a U -turn after picking -up or dropping -off a student in order to proceed back to the Wilmot Road driveway. The traffic patterns proposed for the site are indicated on Exhibit C. Traffic Analysis in order to evaluate the impacts which the preschool will have on the area's transportation system, it is necessary to determine the volume of traffic which will be generated by the new use and the directional distribution of these trips. The directional distribution of the preschool trips will be highly dependant on the specific students enrolled in the program, which will change on a term -by -term basis. Without o ". d- oCA-3`4 Ex,6 4. -5 a '4 St. Gregory's Episcopal Preschool Deerfield Road and Wilmot Road Deerfield, Illinois May 22, 2006 - Page 4 of 4 having any specific information on this matter, we do not believe that it is unreasonable to assume that 25% of the trips will approach the site from each direction. Based on the anticipated operation of the preschool, it is also reasonable to assume that there will be one trip end inbound and one trip end outbound for each student during both the pick -up and drop -off periods, for a total of 35 trips in and 35 trips out in any period. When combining the directional distribution with the trip generation (and rounding to the nearest 5 trips), the site generated traffic volumes shown on Exhibit D result. However, as was stated earlier, none of the pick -up and drop -off periods actually occur during the peak traffic periods of the adjacent streets. Regardless of this, for the purpose of our analysis we have added the site generated traffic to the A.M. and P.M. peak hour traffic volumes presented in the Deerfield Road Project Report to represent a worst -case scenario for preschool traffic impacts. These traffic volumes are indicated on Exhibit E. Signalized Intersection Capacity Analyses were performed for the Total Traffic Volumes (existing traffic plus site generated traffic with the preschool open) at the Deerfield Road /Wilmot Road intersection. This condition is compared below to the existing traffic operations presented in the Deerfield Road Project Report. A.M. Peak Hour P.M. Peak Hour Intersection Level -of- Service Delay Level -of- Service Delay Existing Traffic Volumes - Deerfield Rd. /Wilmot Rd. C 24.7 sec. B .19.0 sec. Total Traffic Volumes - Deerfield Rd. /Wilmot Rd. C 25.7 sec. B 19.3 sec. The information above indicates that the additional traffic generated by the preschool will have a negligible impact on the Deerfield Road /Wilmot Road intersection and that there are no improvements needed to the intersection in order to safely and efficiently accommodate the Total Traffic Volumes. 0P-D- 0 -o (A -34 HS Alhf�lic Field RJ as LA FOREST PRESIERVE IN Rd Cl IJ Cf Vloodlihd Park Dr 0000old Park.
