President Mueller turned the Public Hearing over to Village Attorney Tom Bayer at 7:36 |
P.M. |
Mr. Bayer explained the purpose of the Public Hearing relative to a proposed annexation |
agreement for the properties located at 614, 618, 620, 624 and 626 W. Meadow Avenue |
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. |

residential cul-de-sac turnaround diameter from one-hundred twenty four feet (124') to |
ninety-six feet (96') at the western terminus of Meadow Avenue and a Variation from |

(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. |
