Meetings of Thursday

8:30 a.m.—Planning and Development Committee of McHenry County Board

Meets in the Conference room of the County Administration Building, 667 Ware Road, Woodstock.

The first agenda item involves a requested approval for a subdivision extension for Hunter's Woods. The proposed development, consisting of 41 lots at the northwest corner of US 20 and Church Road was originally submitted in March 2005. It received Final Plat approval from the Staff Plat Review Committee in December 2007. One-year extensions were granted in 2008, 2009 and 2010. There are apparently no objections from other agencies such as McDOT and the Health Department.

However, the Chief Stormwater Engineer, following his review, concerns which prevent him from issuing approval. He found that more information is needed on drainage and wetland calculations since these have been revised in the years since this subdivision was last reviewed by staff. Therefore, it is recommended the subdivision return to the beginning of the Final Plat State, which would provide a year to submit to a Plat Review Committee a new plat addressing the issues raised.

The Committee is to interview eight people interested in filling a spot on the Zoning Board of Appeals.

Otherwise, the Committee is to consider a resolution addressing fee waiver regarding a Fence in a Floodplain; discussion regarding Neighborhood Stabilization Program, and a Resolution to change County Board Rules regarding Zoning Petitions.
