C. Public Forum: None

D. Public Hearings:

1. PZC #17-1-032 (2631 Sweetbroom Road Variance)

Petitioner: Marji Szwaya

Subject Property: 2631 Sweetbroom Road

Request: A variance to Section 6-2-10:5 (Accessory Buildings, Structures, and Uses of Land; Percentage of Required Yard Occupied) of the Naperville Municipal Code for the property located at 2631 Sweetbroom Road, PZC 17-1-032.

Gabrielle Mattingly, Planning Services Team, gave an overview of the request.

Matt Goodman, attorney with Rosanova and Whitaker, spoke on behalf of the petitioner.

▪ The PZC inquired about the non-compliance of the court. Goodman responded that the court was constructed in the spring of 2016. An HOA Board complaint resulted in the petitioner applying for a City permit in October of 2016. Reconstructing the court in a code compliant location would be a significant and costly endeavor.

Public Testimony: None

PZC closed the public hearing.

The Planning and Zoning Commission supported the request and preferred the location of the court in the rear yard.

A motion was made by Hastings and seconded by Bansal to adopt the findings of fact as presented by the petitioner and approve PZC 17-1-032, a variance to Section 6-2-10:5 (Accessory Buildings, Structures, and Uses of Land; Percentage of Required Yard Occupied) of the Naperville Municipal Code for the property located at 2631 Sweetbroom Road, Naperville, Illinois.
