Project Narrative General: The intent of this revision to the PUD for Deerfield Senior Residences Project located at 1627 LakeCook Road which was approved by the Village Board in December, 2017 is to alter the proposed access to the Porte Cochere on the west side of the Deerfield Senior Residences building. This revision is a result of our current inability to execute an easement agreement with the owners of our neighbor to the West (Arbor Lakes); we were working with the Campbell family to complete this agreement when the property became under-contract to be sold. The Campbell family stopped the negotiations because they did not want to encumber the eventual purchaser. The sale of Arbor Lakes closed on Monday, October 29, 2018 to Stanton Road Capital. We have had two discussions (October 16th and November 2nd) with Stanton Road Capital and have sent them an easement agreement that reflects our approved PUD Approval. The responses have been slow and in order to close on the project with our capital partners we are looking at another option in case we cannot come to agreement with Stanton Road Capital. Our goal is to try and execute the agreement with Stanton Road Capital but, we are currently at a standstill and want to make sure we can move the project forward; thus, we are submitting this revision to the approved PUD. Detail: The changes are shown on the revised plan prepared by Gewalt Hamilton Engineers as follows: A new full (in/out) access located in the southwest corner of the site. A one-way drive extension from the point of entry to the parking garage to the north parking area. The change from a full-access to a right-in/right-out access from the Wilmot Road extension into Arbor Lakes Drive. We have attached a copy of the revised and approved plan for your reference.
