June 2004 Department O F Community Development JUNE 2004 DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT M O N T H L Y R EPORT . If one plots an annualized calendar year graph of demand for services requested from a community development agency, the month of June would be considered to be the pinnacle of demand, with December typically being the month with the least demand for services. Gentle warm weather is the catalyst for peak demand in service. The public is fully engaged. True to calendar demand, members of the Department of Community Development (DCD) are also fully engaged with the high demand for dozens of services which we provide; from special use permit application requests to reviewing new development proposals, from inspecting overgrown grass and vegetation to management of development letters of credit, and from commencement of the 2004/2005 Community Development Block Grant housing rehabilitation program to new construction inspections. The major DCD organizational plan is well underway. With several iterations of flow charts under review, the immediate goal is to present a recommended draft structure to the Village Manager by mid July. Upon presentation it is anticipated that further fine tuning will be necessary. Upon completion of the structure chart, the next step is to propose revisions to procedures for delivery of service to the public and then revise, where necessary, job descriptions. The long awaited reconstruction of the Schaumburg Metra Station commenced with a fanciful groundbreaking ceremony. Staff was involved in the annexation of the station property, rezoning, development plan review and approvals, selection of materials, intergovernmental agreement issues. Later this fall, staff will prepare documents calling for requests for proposals to consider a lease agreement for the vendor space inside the station. Commercial Plans Examiner Douglas Jones is acting as the Village representative for project construction management. The Schaumburg station is the busiest station on the Metra-Milwaukee Road West District Line and is a jewel for the community. Senior Landscape Planner Martha Dooley was the Village representative to make a presentation on the new Biodiversity Plan and Ordinance. A much-heralded and extraordinarily progressive document, the Northeastern Illinois Planning Commission (NIPC) scheduled the presentation time and forum to allow Schaumburg to razzle dazzle the Chicago Metropolitan Community. NIPC realizes that this Village initiative includes very practical methods by which various environmental problems throughout the region can be mitigated, if pursued on a regional level. Acting Development Review Planning Thomas Farace successfully guided eight teardown and replacement requests through the Plan Commission system. This is the largest number of requests in one month for new replacement houses since the phenomenon began in Schaumburg slightly over two years ago. Although it was necessary for staff to recommend denial of two, nonetheless the anti-monotony provisions recently incorporated into the master ordinance seems to be functioning as planned. Architectural revisions are being made to the two houses and eventual approval is prized. If you have any questions or would like further information regarding anything in this report, please contact me. J.

  • A.1 Introduction
    A.1 Introduction In October 2008, the study area for the Elgin O’Hare-West Bypass (EO-WB) study was enlarged to address projected changes in travel patterns related to the project alternatives under consideration. The study area was expanded farther west from its original boundary to contain corridors where supporting off-system capacity improvements may be needed, including the length of the existing Elgin O’Hare Expressway from I-290 to its western terminus in Hanover Park. The expanded study area (Exhibit 1-1A) includes the original study area described in the original TSPR and the area to the west containing the Elgin- O’Hare Expressway to its western terminus in Hanover Park. Transportation system alternatives to be considered for the project will be limited to the expanded study area. This Final Transportation System Performance Report (TSPR) Addendum describes characteristics and performance of the transportation system in the expanded study area, and includes updated tables and exhibits presenting system features and performance. 1 A.2 Existing Demographics of Expanded Study Area The expanded study area comprises 127 square miles and 27 communities in northwest Cook and DuPage counties. In addition to the four core communities identified in the original study area (Elk Grove Village, Bensenville, Itasca, Wood Dale), two core communities in the expanded study area (Schaumburg and Roselle) will most likely be directly affected by the system alternatives. The expanded study area remains urban in nature with transportation corridors surrounded by commercial and industrial areas and communities with established residential neighborhoods and commercial centers. A.2.1 Land Use The expanded study area remains a mix of land uses (see Table 1).

  • Northwest Corridor Transit Feasibility Study Market Analysis
    r SPECIAL REP CJ RT r Market Analysis Northwest CorridorTransit Feasibility Study I r . f Prepared by the Regional Transportation Authority I System Planning Division l L l Issued July 1998 Market Analysis Northwest Corridor Transit Feasibility Study Prepared by the System Planning Division Regional Transportation Authority 181 West Madison Street Suite 1900 Chicago, IL 60602 August 1998 Executive Summary The Northwest Corridor Transit Feasibility Study is a comprehensive examination of the transit and transportation needs of the Northwest Corridor located in the six-county Northeastern Illinois region. The corridor is centered on the 1-90 Northwest Tollway, and is bounded by Harlem A venue on the east, the Kane/Cook County line on the west, the Metra Union Pacific-Northwest commuter rail line on the north and the Milwaukee District-West commuter rail line on the south. This study, conducted jointly by the Regional Transportation Authority (RTA), the Illinois State Toll Highway Authority (ISTHA), Elk Grove Village, Hoffinan Estates, Rolling Meadows, Rosemont, and Schaumburg will identify and evaluate a range of transportation improvement options, resulting in the recommendation of a small set of feasible, cost-effective transportation improvements. As the first major document of the Northwest Corridor Transit Feasibility Study, this market analysis evaluates transportation markets and facilities, identifies mobility problems, assesses the extent of these problems, and lays the groundwork for the generation of conceptual alternatives. This analysis takes the basic approach of assessing transportation supply and demand. Transportation problems result from inadequate supply in a given market, geographic area, direction or time of day. These supply shortfalls are symptomized by congestion and longer travel times.

Ladd, Chairman Appointing Authority: County Board Chairmen, Kane, Lake, McHenry and Will Counties Lowell E. Anderson, Treasurer Appointing Authority: Suburban Members, Cook County Board Larry A. Huggins, Director Appointing Authority: City of Chicago W. Warren Nugent, Secretary Appointing Authority: Suburban Members, Cook County Board Gerald L.

Udstuen, Director Appointing Authority: County Board Chairmen, Kane, Lake, McHenry and Will Counties Philip A. Pagano, Executive Director 2001 Program and Budget November, 2000 Chairman’s Message TO FRIENDS OF COMMUTER RAIL: Strong demand for expanded Metra service throughout our Northeast Illinois Region – from thriving suburbs to reviving city neighborhoods – poses a greater challenge than ever before in our 16-year history. Our 2001 budget document shows how we plan to meet that demand while we maintain Metra’s existing service at high levels of safety and reliability — without raising fares. This is the fifth annual budget in a row without a fare increase, thanks to our operating efficiency and steadily growing ridership. With passenger trips up about 2.5% well into 2000, we were headed for Metra’s fourth yearly record in a row and possibly a new all-time high for Chicago commuter trains. The commensurate rise in revenues helps to ward off a fare increase. It also helps to fund the projects needed to maintain and improve service.

  • Community Development Department M Onthly R Eport
    A P R I L 2 0 0 5 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT M ONTHLY R E P O R T . The month of April, with the advent of springtime weather brings the department into the busiest time of the calendar year. Louis and Serena return to their municipal center grounds pond; and this year for the first time they have actually decided to nest on the swan island. Temporary special event requests increase, are processed by staff, and placed on standing committee agendas for consideration. And of course the number of permits issued through Permit Control balloons in volume. Of particular note this month; the village adopted the newest version of the 2004 Edition of the International Plumbing Code. The revision puts the village in great shape, and makes it even easier for the plumbing and construction industry to utilize the most modern methods and materials when constructing building plumbing systems. The revision also cuts about 35 pages of redundant information from the ordinance thus making it more user friendly. Roosevelt University is celebrating its 60th anniversary. And of course Roosevelt University Schaumburg is excited about this historical milestone. As such Roosevelt will be placing celebratory banners in specified locations on Golf Road and McConnor Parkway. Congratulations to this critically important piece of Schaumburg's educational system. Although the Metra Schaumburg Station is not yet finished, all O/M details have been codified and the department is now setting into motion the last two details prior to eventual completion; accepting proposals for leasing the coffee vendor space inside the facility, and completing the security system plan for presentation to committee for consideration.
