PURPOSE:
The Petitioner, BG Products of Illinois, is requesting approval of a Final Plan for 2695 West Sullivan Road, which includes the construction of a 10,000 square-foot warehouse with office space.
BACKGROUND:
The Subject Property is located in the ORI Office, Research, and Light Industry Zoning District which is part of the Podolsky Orchard 88 Subdivision.
The Petitioner is requesting the approval of a Final Plan. The details of the request include the development of a 10,000 square-foot building for a Warehouse Distribution, and Storage Services (3300) Use located on Sullivan Road. The building will include the warehousing portion as well as an office space. The Final Plan also shows 31 parking spaces to accompany the use.
The Landscape Plan provides additional canopy trees, shrubs, understory trees, and landscaping in the parking islands. Currently, there are existing street trees on Melissa Lane and Sullivan Road. Three street trees will be added to adhere to the Zoning Ordinance requirements. A landscaping bed on the east side of the lot is incorporated to provide a visual and physical separation between the neighboring property.
The Building and Signage Elevations show a one-story building with a height of 24 feet. The building materials include steel and concrete. Fenestration was added on the east, west, and south side of the building to create more architectural character and reduce the "big box" feeling. Wall signage will be on the west and south side of the building.
