Bill salmon.
Back going to be first year, but I'm going to 2903 West
Irving Park. I am the owner there at the building with my
partner here of Arizona regarding the proposed building
next door to me at 2907 West Irving building next door
there fifteen years ago. I've done some developing and I
love the area over there. It's beautiful and within the 15
years. I seen a lot of development go on across the street.
There's a 20 a cup of 26 unit buildings. They're all
conforming with the neighborhood and it's very nice and
next door to me. They want to Bill.
This monstrosity is 7 story building with little to no
parking and it is I feel it's going to affect the community
tremendously with no parking and the height of the
building. It's just not going to fit into the area and I
would strongly
asked that the Builder in the developer to build a
structure Market conforming with the neighborhood. Cuz
first of all, I have a sunroof up on top to it's going to
take half my son lights but it's going to affect the
business is because there's no parking for anybody over
there and was sixteen units. It's nothing and my other
concern is the management of the property. I'm aware that
the Builder built a building at 5051 or was it 50 or 5150
Northwest Highway and it's a huge building over there and
the police were called there 90 something times it within a
year. So I I feel that the management skills aren't there
and if they're going to make a monstrosity like this if
it's going to be harder for them to handle as well.
So with that being said, I hope you take everything inside.
I worked hard over here at this property that I built and I
didn't know 8, I've been there fifteen years. I've
struggled to make the mortgage payments in the taxes. And
if I have problems over there, it's going to I don't want
to cause any danger on myself for my tenants with with lack
of management. And it's just a big monstrosity. It's just
that they're proposing a 77 Storey building. There's
nothing like that over there. It's a nice Community a lot
of homes it it's I just I don't think would be the right
fit for the community. Okay. Thank you for your time. Thank
you. Mr. Solomon.
We got next up. We have George like more.
You just got through re-reading some rules.
I want a copy of those groups. I want to know when did it
go to rules committee. How many voted on it? And when did
City Council vote on it? And we're surely he's here. I
thought he wasn't the chair.
Is still corruption here?
He's the chairman. Why you sitting up there? Maybe he's not
the Charming anymore. Maybe he did something. That was you
talking about the public speakers, but hey.
Amanda my hot character yo-yo behavior is terrible
anything's can be resolved here. If your Tina play that
gentleman was talking about that one story building called
and the character. But all you have to do is pay to play
pay one of these Altima Taylor play pictures of Notre has

are and that man is supposed to be
Because one of the ladies to you, don't show me though. You
don't have no room and if I want to speak.
Call Chris Kyle and Mr. Blakemore, holy night. I'm not the
one maybe you might be but you don't believe show me the
rules. When did you vote on that? When did it go to the
committed the rules committee? You have? No Ruby in?
Chicago is known to be one of the most most corrupt city in
the United States of America because of people like you.
Thank you. Mr. Blake Moore.
For the record. I wanted to add to the Quorum of the sea
trailer Lopez all going to Hopkins and all them and David
Moore.
Next speaker is Sean O'Neal.
I'm here to post the full circle Development building.
Thanks. I'm here. Development that full circle is wants to
build at 2907 Irving. I believe that the seven-story
building is not in the character of the neighborhood which
is mostly single family homes. There's nothing within miles
of here. That is anywhere near This Tall 16 parking spaces.
Are we to you the older woman and lead you to believe that
there is plenty of parking around there. When if you ask
anybody that lives in the area are any of the businesses
they totally disagree.
This is my wish through with no Community input.
They've been working on this for several years and very
secretive lead. He held no Community musics. There was a
zoom meeting which was handpicked with her people on there
and
She says there's plenty of support for this but there's not
we have petitioned that everybody should have with over 300
neighbors that are in opposition of this and we're going to
have plenty more.
So that's about it. It's been pushed through and she
shouldn't be doing the zoning on behalf of the developer.
They should be doing their own zoning change. That's how
it's always been done before. Thank you.
Thank you. Mr. O'Neill, and we did we did receive comments
and that was forwarded to all the committee members. Thank
you. Our final speaker is on the zoom Ian McCulloch.
Listen to call him we could go. Hello. Can you hear me?
I think you my name is Ian McCollum. I'm a resident of the
33rd Ward. I live in Albany Park and I'm just north of the
proposed 2907 West Irving Park Zone and change quickly
address previous comments about 911 calls to 5150 Northwest
Highway. That's a disability elderly and veterans community
75 units. I think we can imagine a lot of reasons that you
might need to call Emergency Services there many of which
are not a danger to the community. So that aside I want to
speak today in terms of choices choice between keeping the
Northwest side of portable for all kinds of people or
allowing the cycle of gentrification to continue. The 33rd
ward has historically been a place with mixed housing and
diverse population and we've recently seen a precipitous
decline in our multi-family housing as two to four unit
buildings are D converted into single family.
Just drive down the housing Supply and drives up the cost of
living pushing family. And sometimes with nowhere to go but
to their cars out of mises our communities and depopulate
are dense than rich neighborhoods leading to a community
where people don't have the same wrist dated a chance
encounters that they would in a more dense neighborhood
this proposal 45 units alone are not going to replace the
housing density that we lost but it is an essential step in
reversing course zoning changed often speak about changing
the character of Irving Park. They say that we have to
moderate or demands for a high quality affordable housing
by shrinking the size but no one asked us when they
deconverted are beautiful and dense neighborhood in two
rows and rows of single-family housing single-family
housing is just considered the default down the street from
me a large church burned down in your place by 3, single
family homes themselves the size of 2 to 3 flat building,
but they're not going to be used that way. Meanwhile, we
have to beg plead and go through an owner is processed to
approved one affordable.
At a time is the choices that I'm talking about. The
greatest concerns have been heard the fight with previous
commenter said the old woman had an extensive
community-driven zoning process and fielded comments in
multiple formats of the Neighbors on both sides debated.
They brought their organizations to have their voices
heard. I was at the meeting that person reference there
were plenty of people speaking against the zone that said
the process revealed an overwhelming amount of support for
the proposed development. It has a support because
developers have considered the needs of the neighborhood by
designing a building with setbacks on the top and bottom
floors giving us a space walk and clearing some of the
skyline so that you can see the skies. Do you have your
light so that it feels less intrusive thoughts with a
transit-oriented development with on-site parking. What a
lot of people don't acknowledge is that many people who
live in these units are not going to have the car they will
need public transit going to join a community of great
developments like the oso apartments on Montrose in the
Maria Elena sifuentes building currently in development on
Lawrence.
Albany Park and affordable dance and safe place to live,
please. I'm asking you all to affirm the choice that the
33rd ward has already made and
I think it was from a column. We do have one more Speaker
John Friedman.
Yes, good morning. I'm here representing the Hornet Park
Neighbors, which is the community organization just north
of the 2900 2909 development and RV Park in question. I
don't think about going into the merits of the project. I
think that I would like it that the council not approve.
The application is written because of clerical errors in it
the application and we're talking about 8852 talks about
the the purpose of the applications to restore two more.
Correct a Down's only it had been made to bring it in
compliance and make a bowl of Tipsy other buildings in the
area. But the be 3-3 zoning that is being requested is
grossly grocery in uptown from what originally was there.
Originally the building that site was the sea 1-1 and
increasing his only to appease 3-3 will definitely make it
out of character with the neighborhood.
Current does Peace Tree that she allows a seven-story 80 ft
building? I think it's a currently proposed 79 ft. The
previous leaders of the building with the two-story
building and nothing in the area is more than four and a
half stories. So because of the eclair eclair, I think that
the application needed should be denied or postponed until
the community.
Play in and have a life public meeting regarding this topic.
There are four Community groups that are posing this
project are as being one of them. Are you have some
documentation from some of the others regarding it? We had
tried to get a lie public meetings for the last six months
regarding this project and it had been denied. There was a
zoom meeting but as we're all where is human beings do not
replace live meetings in terms of interaction with the
public are there get Kylie control their time is limited
and some cases that are some technical difficulties and
some of the speakers opposing the project. We're not
allowed to speak or not able to speak rather. I want to be
clear about anyway, I should state that we are not opposed
to community groups are not opposed to an affordable
housing project on his site. We all recognize the need for
affordable housing at a seven-story project. There is
completely out of character and we want a good affordable
housing project. I mean to City landscape is littered with
poorly conceived really design affordable housing.
We don't want this to be another one. Thank you very much
for your time. You sir?
That concludes our public comments. We will now move on to
large signs over 100 square ft and area 24 ft above grade,
and we will share them all together. I will read the ward
followed by the address and then take emotion at the end in

All right, there's no questions. Like how many members do I
hear a motion to pass for the same real call that was used
to determine for him all the middle spot him as you pass
and if Jackson during the orders our past we will not move
on the map amendments on efforts to ensure the committee
meetings run smoothly as possible items are grouped
together according to witness and we'll get hurt in that
order a rather than Ward order. However, we're going
finally out of order and we're going to start in the middle
of page 38 in the 33rd Ward.
Item number 88852 ordinance referred 91423, address 2907 to
23 West Irving Park Road. The change request is RS one
single residential single unit detached house district 2B
33 Community shopping district believe is it Patrick or the
other woman who's all the Run?
I can definitely said Thank you share. The project that we
are talking about is that 100% affordable housing
development that I am very proud that we have been working
for with full circle. And with our community are having a
community-driven the stoning process that came from my
calling in the 35th Ward and we modeled after that that
community-driven stone in process. We did have Community
engagement is a seven-story building in Irving Park. I want
to allow my Stoney on infrastructure director Rebecca Rios
to talk about the reasoning behind the behind the zoning
change and I would love for Patrick to also chime in.
I think you're all the woman mystery rolls for the record
for the 33rd Ward. Good morning chairperson and members of
the committee Saudi property in question. Our property is
2907. 2923 West Irving Park Road ware rezoned in 2018. And
as you can see for the map might even my eight-year-old
child can look at that map and tell you which part does not
belong right and so a Ridah directly across the street 2900
is Zone b-3 3 so not only did this rezoning impact the
now-vacant lot but it also rezoned two properties that
include three businesses to RS one as well and rs one is
the lowest density residential which really only allows for
single family homes to be built at a time when we're really
facing a housing crisis in the city of Chicago. Our office
is not
These businesses were notified of this at the time but the
2018 rezoning has had lasting impacts and repercussions on
the property owners of those properties as well. This is
zoning change not only includes the site for the full
circle development, but it also includes those properties
as well. And I'm currently the business at 2921 West Irving
Park was shut down citing multiple code violations due to
the current rezoning of rs1.
These property owners are not able to get the needed permits
and us are permits to actually bring their building up to
code right they're not able to feed her businesses are not
able to utilize that space and apply for business license
in Chicago business licensing mandates that business is
mostly all businesses have to operate out of a commercial
or business district, right? So however under ask for 2907
to 2917 wheel parts in comments. Community and Adventures
did contact our office initially to and plan to submit a
type one application. They did go through our Community
Driven zoning process. They also went through years of
review from dpd on toh. So there has been extensive review
about for this project pacifically.
And after this process and our public meeting that was held
in August of this year through Zoom, we receive 79% support
for this project, you know, obviously 100% would be nice
but in a perfect world, but Tony is having a scent is is a
number that we're really proud of and and it wasn't we then
we receive feedback in many ways. So we did take public
comments and Sean O'Neil's actually his question was
actually accepted and responded to you at this public
meeting. And so we also received feedback for
Weeks after this meeting and we have all that we can share
that with you guys. I'm through the chair if needed after
the community meeting. We were in support of this project.
However, after Consulting with the zoning administrator at
Patrick Murphy on who can fix this a little bit considering
the long-term consequences of the businesses and Property
Owners at 2919 and 2921 and 2920 3 and also the harm that
would be caused by only allowing the lowest density single
family homes to be built on such as transit-oriented Street
like Irving Park Road The Other Woman has made the decision
to introduce introduce his b333 zoning ordinance. It will
allow full circle communities to create affordable and
dignified housing for Native American and low income
families.
It will ensure that property owners at 2919 2921 and 2923
are able to
maintain the properties and receive the permits that are
necessary and allow businesses to thrive and pick up that
space.
It'll also future-proof the majority of the Black by
ensuring that any future developments will be will trigger
the 20% affordable requirements ordinance.
Thank you, Miss. Chris Shrader Patrick Murphy Murphy
Department planning. Everything that's been said both of
the older and their staff is correct. And when we looked at
this portion of the block on Irving Park Road, and the old
man is only actions that were taken in 2018 from purlie
from the zoning District in a land-use standpoint having an
RX1 District on Irving Park Road Orchard Park Road would
not be appropriate looking at other City initiative that we
are pursuing as they relate to zoning actions and
development throughout the city the transistor location
ordinance more commonly known as the collect collected
connected connected communities ordinance from a couple
summers ago promotes as a vehicle to encourage more
development in the encouragement and the provision of more
affordable housing and the provision of less parking
looking at Dash 3 zoning District. So this portion Irving
Park Road
The land uses that are appropriate for this area as well as
the zoning the underlying zoning the base only districts.
That would be more appropriate all pointed to this zoning
District that it also is able to unwind a larger zoning
action that put in a district is probably not appropriate
for this area for the long-term is an added benefit in a
reason why this is the you know, the recommended course
that we gave the office his part to pursue this Tony. Thank
you questions by committee members all those fata.
I mean maybe more, cuz I I I hear and respect the the
feedback from the room. I just want to Echo what a
commissioner or if it was saying if if you wanted to
discourage development you would have just made it be 3-1
when this was down so low and in 2018, we were saying what
you do here is when you want to deny any profitable or
purposeful use of the land. Like RS Dash 14 that lot on
Irving Park. There's a real absurdity to however that
toning decision was made and then we were we were being
asked and they question was being Us in the room with him.
This was a contextual zoning change, but it is like I mean,
you can not only from what we see on the map here, but you
can look it up. I think we have at least
Three different for different between us three Parcels
within 400 500 ft of this change. So on its face. I mean
this questions that I would love to ask offline about the
development, but also that full circle does not do quality
affordable housing is a a fabrication. They've done great
work up and down the walkie Avenue son. I'm excited for the
project and I'm excited to vote Yes on it. Thank you tear
in your pocket. You have letters of support and opposition.
I just mentioned the opposition earlier. Thank you. I all
in Conway.
Permits Murphy's is this a transit-oriented district?
That's that's my request. Thank you. Great and the other
questions?

yondorf Hall the adjacent landmark building to work on
development rights for a proposal on the site. They have
since cancel that contract and are not moving forward on
it. So the city of Department playing development is moving
to an app to Sunset Clause to restore the b35 zoning
designation to allow for future development proposal on the
site.
administer franek to have any questions by committee
members
Iona Villegas white. Why did they decide not to go for with
the project?
Ultimate I don't have specifics from the applicant. I we
just know that there is a new applicant engaged seeking to
use the site and they would not trigger a plan development
is part of their proposal. So under the b35, they would be
able to develop as of right now.
Same as the development that move through plan commission a
couple weeks ago or a couple months ago, or is it?
Call him in this is not this is a different that is a
separate development. That's just north of the railroad
tracks on Halsted that sell a separate Planet out with
those put in place. Thought so just trying to picture it in

Thank you, mr. Chairman and members of the committee. My
name for the record is Tom Moore and with me today is
Janine Valerie Logan and in the audience are our members of
our board of directors.
And her colleague Shaquan depart on this is a big step in a
long journey. Miss Logan has almost single-handedly gotten
for the Illinois legislature the Illinois alternative
delivery statute, which allows midwife's to do out of
Hospital deliveries in Illinois, and she has
located this building. It's an old church and she has a
fundraisers to change it into a delivery facility Community
delivery facility and she got to the closing and found that
the it's one of those situations where the property is
debated divided lot right down the middle of the building
its in RS3 and ab31. So the purpose of today's motion is to
make it a unified b31 so that she can get it she can move
forward with her.
Her facility and we had a very well-attended community
meeting earlier this week in the 10th Ward and the really
were no objectors the were only the supporters. And if you
at that meeting they brought out the the horrendous
statistics of a for instance in an area where women of
color a have a much much higher death rate than other areas
of the city for instance. And that where you have this
alternative they can greatly decrease the maternal and the
infant death rate. And so this Logan is a highly qualified
multi credentialed nurse and midwife and we'd ask for
Your support we have the support of the 10th Ward. Thank
you so much questions from Coronavirus.
No hearing none other than the spot. I'll make some ocean
to past but it's a real call that was used to determine for
him. And if Jackson turn on this item is past graduation
the amazing work you're doing.
Next up o I'm sorry older woman play has requested to attend
the meeting by remote means under the provisions of rule
59. Is there any objection to this request?
Colonel Jackson Alderman Clay is allowed to attend the

Thank you. We do have all the Martin's letter of support

I'm just curious if they were doing ground for commercial
with this development. So on this one no, it's an all
residential building. So a total of 8 residential units 2 /
4 and it's not my ward and I'm going to vote in favor it
I'm just curious cuz we're like, well the core from Wilson
and Western. I feel like with their commercial identity
there. Could you talk a little bit about that decision. So
I think generally speaking there's a concern about the
viability of new retail spaces and the comparisons price
comparison method is oversaturated by that there is
available commercial space in the immediate area and I
think some Community organizations take the position that
adding appropriate density helps support the existing
commercial and I think this project kind of fits that bill
at at only eight units. It's not a massive.
Development by comparison to what? You know if they can be
seen today, so I think it's more in line with again
providing support for the existing businesses in the area.
That's really fair argument. Thank you, sir. Thank you any
other questions.

and file a new type one Amendment application for this. We
do have Alderman Martin support. The project actually has
been reduced by one unit from what was initially approved.
But otherwise is insubstantial conformance with the project
was initially approved back in 21.
Hey, thank you. We do have the support from all them in
Martin any questions from committee members Altima
Villegas.
Thank you. Mr. Chairman. Just a question around so you came
back to the same project similar project. That is correct
given.
The interest rate the highest interest rate to how how how
sure that we were going to actually get this project
completed. I'll probably just about a certain if anybody
else is right. Now, they are working towards complacent
completing this project just because it has been pending
for a long time. But clearly there's a lot of uncertainty
in the market right now.
You're not an alderman Ramirez roast. I moved you pass by
the same role call that was used to determine a quorum any
objections or amount of this item is past stinking I do.

all Espada
this was it was really a remarkable project when it came
through plan commission a few weeks ago and I'm glad they
were voting on it today. I wondered and commissioner Murphy
maybe if you could speak to this, we don't always talk
about how these projects me to sustainable development
policy, but it doesn't do that. It was a fascinating
category that combines environmental equity and social
Equity another one that I'm talking about, sir.
Do you have Patrick Murphy with Department of planning? I
don't have that specific a Sylvia. Do you have any
information on that on the slides for today?
That you can maybe go through we can answer. It's not on
the sides, but I'm going to turn it over to Ashlyn.
Ashland Williams with coup. So the program that we will be
pursuing is the Enterprise green communities like plan
which is a similar development policy or program like weed
or well, but it is specifically targeted to this type of
development and sort of has a more equity in planning and
management Focus included in for congress with the
Sustainable Building and sustainable systems aspect as
well.
I just thought it was fascinating worth looking at
particularly. If orders are looking to do a fordable
projects that require PD's that are looking to combine that
environmental equity in Social Equity Focus. It's a really
great round to be taken. So I'm really glad that you are
thank you. Thank you Charlie.
Thank you. Any other questions by committee members? I'm
actually maybe you said this time estimate. What are the
current uses on the sites? And I believe there is on the
phase one project property at the South. What is a blue
12-story building and then the Northwest parcel has I
believe to do three buildings, I believe.
Write thank you. Thank you. Any other questions during none
