Village of Lombard Legistar System

and the previously annexed 622 W. Meadow Avenue.

Mr. Bayer asked that anyone wishing to speak, come to the podium.

Richard Dunn, a representative of the developer stated that he was there to assist with

any questions anyone may have and he indicated that this property when annexed will

add value to Lombard and improve the detention design.

Mr. Bayer stated that this matter was also on that evening's agenda on separate action

and those wishing to address the Board could speak during the Public Hearing portion

or later in the evening.

Pat Guzman, 602 Glenwood, President of the Columbine Glen Homeowners Association

commented that she felt the cul-de-sac design would force traffic down the street. She

requested that Buckingham Court run from Pleasant to Meadow which would provide

easier access for emergency vehicles. She did not want the residents of Columbine

Glen being inconvenienced by the new development and she requested that the

construction of one single family home be eliminated.

Jim Laskowski, 256 Cimarron Road East, President of the Woodlands Association

indicated that he had talked to representatives of the surrounding areas and people did

not have an idea of what was to take place. They were concerned with the safety of their

children. He spoke of the discussions in the past of the proposed State widening of

Route 53 there was no mention of a traffic light. He asked that the Board address the

issues and concerns of all of the residents of the area.

Detra Torres, 627 Meadow Avenue spoke of the bus stop on Cimarron and commented

that if the street extends through that area, it would affect the safety of the children. She

read a letter from her neighbor who was not in attendance, Wendy West, 233 Cimarron

Road West, who is opposed to extending Cimarron Road due to the safety issue.

Chris Vandercook, 302 Cimarron Road, agreed with the plan as stated and said he

realizes that the builders have spent a great deal of time with engineers and planners.

He feels the single family homes will be buffered and that this plan will work.

Christina Vandercook, 302 Cimarron Road, also supported the developer's plan. She

appreciated the fact that single family homes were being brought in and she felt that the

cul-de-sac would keep a suburban feel to the area.

Ms. Guzman spoke again, and commented that a traffic light at Meadow would not make

a difference and she felt all traffic will end up on Meadow. She stated that the children

will be affected whether the streets go all the way through or not.

The Public Hearing was closed at 7:57 P.M.

(UNINCORPORATED & DISTRICT #1)

Mr. Hulseberg gave a power point presentation.

Aimee Balfe, 304 Cimarron, asked at what point would the Village consider a small park

or playground in the area.

President Mueller pointed out that the Village does not control the park district, and that

residents in that area are in the Glen Ellyn park district. He indicated that if the residents

in that area want to become part of the Lombard park district, they would need to

de-annex from the Glen Ellyn park district.

Mr. Hulseberg indicated the Glen Ellyn park district collects an impact fee from their

residents, which the Village of Lombard cannot do, as we are a non-home rule

community. Mr. Hulseberg said that as of one and a half years ago, there were no

improvement plans of that area in the ten year plan of the Glen Ellyn park district. He

said staff and the Lombard Park District would be happy to assist the residents if it is

their desire to de-annex from the Glen Ellyn park district.

President Mueller explained that Glen Ellyn residents pay impact fees that are passed

along to homebuyers by the developers. President Mueller suggested that the residents

may want to organize themselves and contact Mr. Hulseberg.

Denise Martinez, 234 Cimarron Road West, said that there are many young children and

suggested keeping Cimarron Road as a cul-de-sac.

Trustee O'Brien asked who would control the detention pond.

Mr. Hulseberg responded that the homeowners association would be responsible for the

new detention pond. He did not know if the single family homeowners would be

contributing.

President Mueller mentioned that originally the Columbine Glen homeowners

association was opposed because the retention was going through their site.

Mr. Hulseberg pointed out that under the new scenario, drainage would go to the south

and the townhomes would pay for stormwater detention and maintenance thereof.

Trustee Sebby asked how the proposed cul-de-sac would impact emergency vehicles.

Mr. Hulseberg said this was discussed with the Fire and the Police Departments and it

was workable with both departments.

Trustee Sebby asked why Meadow would be changed.

Mr. Hulseberg responded that the existing turn around is inadequate as the current area

is too small.

Larry Urbaniak, 601 Glenwood, spoke of the long range plans for Route 53, as the

present plan calls for the lowering of the bridge over the path and said there is no traffic

light planned for Pleasant. He said the last meeting with IDOT indicated that there would

be infrastructure for a traffic light. He said that a traffic light would funnel traffic to

Meadow and he spoke of opening Buckingham Court to Meadow. He said that all traffic

on Cimarron Road is a danger to children.

President Mueller pointed out that IDOT does not know what will happen with Route 53

improvements.

Wes Anderson indicated that improvements of Route 53, North Avenue to St. Charles

Road, was to take place some time in fiscal year 2010.

President Mueller stated that this would depend on funding, and at this time the

legislators have trouble balancing their current budget. He said many things have been

discussed regarding Route 53 improvements. He indicated that in 1953 there was talk of

Route 53 being widened but this has still not come to pass.

Trustee Soderstrom commented that even if the Route 53 expansion happens, a light at

Meadow is not warranted.
