Doug HamlinReminder this was taken off the concern from the last board meeting.
• Trustee Halevi – Looked over the blueprints and it looks very nice – the parking lot is not very big for your business that holds 68 people.
• Petitioner – Evening time will be when it is open. Saturday Evening/Sunday brunch and evening are the main times when open, 45 parking spots after the other businesses close.
• Trustee Halevi No parking on Devon and that is pretty full evening and there is also a banquet that may need their parking. There has been no agreement as of yet.
• Trustee Sargon – Have you talked about valet parking? Have you talked to surrounding businesses?
• Petitioner – They will have valet if they need to. There is no high-end dairy that is Kosher in the Chicago area. There is no residential issue. We also gave them very cheap rent in order to make the deal work.
• Petitioner approached Trustee Patel if they needed a parking agreement to park in Trustee’s Patel’s parking spots. Petitioner did not go back to ask for more parking. Trustee Patel is open for some use of the space.
• Trustee Nickell does not like the landscaping • Trustee Cope does not find an issue about the parking and they are trying to
landscape so it is unfair to ask them about that. • Trustee Klatzco there is nothing in your parking lot that is nice• Trustee Patel there really is no way to have landscaping on their property• Trustee Klatzco – What is Kosher Dairy Store?
• Petitioner – We do not have meat and dairy together. If someone wants fish and dairy. There is no meat served. Everything closes between 5 and 6 pm.

8. Consideration of (A) an Ordinance Repealing Article 17 of Chapter 9 of the Municipal Code of Lincolnwood Regarding Minimum Hourly Wages and (B) an Ordinance Repealing Article 18 of Chapter 9 of the Municipal Code of Lincolnwood Regarding Paid Sick Leave
Trustee Klaszco announced that he is recusing himself from this matter. He stated that because he is one of the largest minimum wage employers in the Village, he
5
did not feel that it was appropriate for him to be involved in this matter (Trustee Klaszco has left the meeting room)
Village Assistant Charles Meyer explained the Power Point presentation
o The following business owners have appeared in front of the Board Mr. Brian Adams
o . Please remember that the property taxes are significant. $154K in taxes for the HS, Library, and Schools if they pull their business the money will go away.
Cheryl Axelrodo Physician – business owner and mother, paid sick leave is obvious. We
need to make it easy for people to stay home and go to Dr. appointments. o I cannot raise my prices; it is decided amongst the insurance companies on
what I get as payment.
o . Denise Wang Stowbeck
o Minimum wage has not kept pace with the Federal Poverty line. Please Opt In to the raise in the wage.
Jen Merisho Paid sick days – likes to shop, go out to eat and doesn’t want to worry that
she will get a contagious disease if the employees where she goes is sick because of not sick leave.
Lori Moochao In favor of Opt In for pay raise. Some are forced to be on Employee
Assistance that my tax dollars pay for. Tim Garcia
o From Food for Thought. He needed to let 70 people from his business go. Property taxes, tariffs, and insurance went up. A good employer lets their employees have sick leave.
Trustee Cope read a letter from the Finance Director. In his opinion education is critical, but to force business to raise their wages is wrong. He wants to see our businesses in town thrive.
Trustee Sargon Our staff has addressed this subject over and over again. It is important that employers in town o make sure their employees are healthy. Trustee Sargon noted that not one worker has addressed the Board.
Trustee Nickell – Is not in favor of having the Board make the decision for the business owners.
Trustee Patel – Those that choose to pay the lowest level will get the worst employees; however if the wage is higher, they will get a better employees. Those working in Cook County are making good money.
Trustee Halavi – Favors opting in; but encouraged everyone to please buy local to help the Village of Lincolnwood local businesses
Ray Grossman – Nobody has discussed that the pride of the people of Lincolnwood. He urged the Board to opt In
The following three presentations were made by Trustees Halevi, Sargon and Cope. They have requested that these be placed in the minutes as presented.

Trustee Halevi:“Everyone who lives in Lincolnwood has been fortunate enough to afford living here. For many it took years of hard work and saving their money. You can’t afford to live here on minimum wage.It’s not right when people can work in Lincolnwood, but not afford to live here. That’s why we’re voting to raise the minimum wage.But this doesn’t stop with a vote. In order for workers in Lincolnwood to receive higher wages, all of us who live here must help local businesses succeed. That means that each of us must patronize Lincolnwood businesses. Every dollar you spend in Lincolnwood helps businesses and their workers.So, try a new restaurant, go to a store you have never been to. Shop local. Help support the business community in Lincolnwood.And, recommend a business to a friend. For example, if you or someone you know is getting married or having a party, consider Food for Thought for catering. If you know of a business who can use quality brass screw machined component parts, recommend R F Mau. Everyone knows someone. Reach out and help make this work.”
Trustee Cope:“I have asked the question repeatedly and have not received any cogent answer: How would Lincolnwood residents benefit from the Village adopting the County Minimum Wage law?I have been told that it will alleviate poverty, but that is obviously not true since the minimum wage laws have been in existence for decades and substantial poverty is still with us.I have been told that it will improve the health of the poor, but that is obviously not true since there is no convincing data linking minimum wage with improved health benefits. Education and lifestyles have far more to do with good health than the minimum wage laws. (Sardinia is one of the healthiest areas in the world)Property values throughout the County have gone down while taxes keep increasing. In some cases people have had to abandon their homes because they could not afford the taxes. Empty stores and abandoned factory buildings are pervasive in Cook County. The Cook County minimum wage law has been in effect since July 1 2017 and there are no tangible benefits. Reducing hours of employment or laying off workers to deal with the County Ordinance is not a benefit to anyone. That was exactly the point raised by Professor Rifkin, the economist who spoke at our December Workshop.Illinois leads the nation in people leaving the state. Illinois has a bad business climate and businesses are choosing other states in which to locate or relocate.The State of Illinois is increasing the minimum wage. The state law applies to all businesses in Illinois and gives our businesses an even playing field in which to operate.Businesses in our community help to reduce the tax burden on our residents. That is how the Village was planned. We need to support this plan. It serves the best interest of our residents.Our business owners have made clear that they are opposed to our adopting the
7
County Ordinance. In 2017 the Village Board committed to not adopt or to opt out of the County Ordinance. Some business owners, I am advised, elected to stay in Lincolnwood based on what they saw as a commitment by the Village to support our businesses.Without our businesses there are no jobs. The amount of the minimum wage becomes an empty exercise if businesses close down or if employees are laid off.Small business owners are real people who also struggle to make a living. They put in long hours and take financial risks. They are not the enemy as some advocates seem to suggest. Small businesses employ the majority of workers in this county. Skilled workers and small businesses, in my view, represent the spirit of this country.I believe, we on the Board have an obligation to represent the best interests of the residents and taxpayers of our Village. The businesses in our community are valuable to us. They are valuable to our residents. Maintaining a balance on our real estate taxes is a real goal. We should do what we can to enhance the business climate in our Village and not hurt it.Adopting the County minimum wage hurts our businesses and does not benefit our residents. We should do what we can to encourage business investment in Lincolnwood and we should do what we can to encourage businesses to remain in Lincolnwood.What is being proposed does not serve our residents and I am opposed to it.
Trustee Sargon:“The Cook County Sick Leave and Minimum Wage Ordinance is a complicated issue. There are many stakeholders involved and many who will be impacted by our decision today. We have heard from Lincolnwood residents via referendum, letters, emails and public testimony, we have heard from businesses, experts, advocates, elected officials and others. But there is one group we have not heard from, and that is the workers who would be impacted by the benefits of opting into the County Ordinance. The fact that a worker has not been able to come forth and share their opinion on this issue, speaks volumes.Today my family celebrates Orthodox Christmas and in the spirit of the holidays and all they represent, I choose to vote in favor of those who are most vulnerable and in favor of this community whose voices I have heard loud and clear.Today the Village of Lincolnwood votes its conscience. I ask that my fellow trustees do the right thing by voting to Opt into the Cook County Sick Leave and Minimum Wage Ordinance.With all of that said, I move to Opt into the Cook County Sick Leave and Minimum Wage Ordinance with a delayed effective date of July 1, 2020.
Trustee Sargon suggested that the Board consider the two ordinances separately. She asked that the Sick Leave ordinance be considered first:Trustee Sargon:

This item was presented by Andrew Letson, Public Works Director and Acting Parks and Recreation Director, using PowerPoint.
Mr. Letson gave background on the item regarding when it first went to the Park and Recreation Board, then to the Village Board and remanded back to the Park and Recreation Board.
Mr. Letson stated the current non-resident pool pass is set at 2,100 and talked of the facility attendance not reaching capacity.
Mr. Letson stated the Park Board did not want the non-resident cap removed to control overcrowding. Mr. Letson also stated the Park Board expressed concern of overcrowding and to make sure there was access for residents.
Trustee Patel asked if we haven’t reached the limit of 2,100, why would we increase the number to 2,300? Mr. Letson stated that if the rate is reduced for the passes then the goal is to increase the number using the pool to make up the difference in funds.
Mr. Letson stated the total usage depends on the weather. Mr. Letson also stated there was no breakdown of residents and non-residents at the pool at any given time. Mr. Letson stated they do have data showing when the pool has reached capacity.
Trustee Cope asked if the goal to have so many people use the pool on any given day. Mr. Letson stated it is a matter of trying to make the pool self sufficient.
Trustee Klatzco asked how many resident passes do we sell? Mr. Letson stated 1,725 in 2019. Trustee Klatzco asked if there was a way to track those leaving the pool. Katie Lazzar, Recreation Supervisor, stated the current software does not allow scanning of outgoing.
Trustee Hlepas Nickell asked Ms. Lazzara if we ever turn away residents when at capacity on hot days. Ms. Lazzara stated it is usually only for a short amount of time and that if four people leave four
7
people are let in. Ms. Lazzara stated we do not look at who is a resident and who is not. Trustee Hlepas Nickell stated that she is aware that as the pool ages it will become more costly. Trustee Hlepas Nickell stated she wants to make sure residents have control of using the pool.
Trustee Klatzco asked if you don’t monitor going out only going in, how do you know when at capacity? Ms. Lazzara stated by looking at Rectrack and by talking to the lifeguards about their area and if too crowded.
There was further discussion regarding the passes and residents.
Trustee Sargon stated she heard from the Park Board, and that we should reconsider raising the cap for the simple reason we are changing the fee schedule and other issues being addressed with concessions and that if we make too many changes at once we won’t be able to identify what factors have contributed to increases or decreases in revenue, to not increase the cap at this time.
Trustee Patel suggested if the passes go on sale April 4, if the Village sells out the 2,100 then increase it by 50 and increase the fee for those 50.
Trustee Patel also stated that the non-resident passes help subsidize the pool.
Trustee Sargon made a motion to approve the Resolution and Ordinance, motion to second by Trustee Patel, with an understanding that there would be a hold at 2,100 passes and to maintain the current policy.Upon Roll Call the Results were:AYES: Trustees Ikezoe-Halevi, Cope, Patel, Hlepas Nickell, Sargon, KlatzcoNAYS: None
The motion passed. 10. Consideration of an Ordinance Amending Chapter 3 of the Municipal Code of Lincolnwood
Regarding Terms of Office of Village CommissionersThis item was presented by Chuck Meyer, Assistant Village manager.
Trustee Cope asked about a past case against the Village about 25 years ago about removing someone from a Board. Mr. Elrod stated it was a statutorily created Board very different from the Boards that this Ordinance would govern. Mr. Elrod also stated that what the Board is considering tonight has no implications on that case.
Trustee Ikezoe-Halevi asked what is a 12 month period? Mr. Elrod stated it is not by calendar, it is just a 12 month period measured from the first absence.
Trustee Cope asked why have such a rule? Mr. Elrod explained that the Board at a prior Committee of the Whole meeting decided the Mayor should make the call if the person should be removed. This release valve was suggested by the Village Board. Trustee Cope stated that he does not understand why this is being raised. Trustee Patel stated it is an issue where you don’t have a quorum. Trustee Patel also stated absence of continuity has caused a problem for the Boards and Commissions and the Village Board.

REFERRED TO BOARD: March 18, 2020 AGENDA ITEM NO: 1
ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT: Public Works
SUBJECT: Approval of a Resolution Rejecting all Bids Received for the 2020 Landscaping Maintenance Contract and Authorizing Staff to Re-Bid the Contract
SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND OF SUBJECT MATTER: On February 5, 2020, a request for proposals for the 2020 Landscape Maintenance Contract was released to prospective bidders. The scope of the contract includes the landscape maintenance of various locations around the Village including the medians along Lincoln, Touhy, Crawford, and Greenleaf Avenues, the Aquatic Center, areas of Proesel Park, the Touhy Avenue Overpass, Cicero Avenue Parkways, Touhy/Crawford Parking Lot, and the and the Union Pacific Bike Path and Parking Lot. The request for proposals was delivered to ten firms and published in the Lincolnwood Review.
On February 25, 2020, three bids were received and publicly opened. The breakdown of bid prices can be found in the table below.
Vendor Bid PriceFleck’s Landscaping $26,393Andy Polina & Sons $74,613
Greenlawn Landscaping $109,427
Fleck’s Landscaping of Wheeling, Illinois, which served as the Village’s contractor in 2019, was the lowest bid. As part of the bid process, bidders were required to submit a bid security in the form of a cashier’s or certified check. Fleck’s Landscaping failed to submit a bid security with their bid, and therefore it cannot be accepted as they did not meet the criteria set forth in the bid process. The next lowest bid, Andy Polina and Sons, is approximately $48,000 higher than the low bid and approximately $14,000 higher than the proposed FY 2021 Landscape Maintenance Budget. Based on the reasons listed herein, staff is requesting the Village Board reject all bids and authorize staff to re-bid the contract.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:The proposed FY 2021 includes $50,000 for Landscape Maintenance services split across three funds: Public Works Street Maintenance - $30,000, Public Works Building Maintenance - $10,000, and Aquatic Center - $10,000.
VILLAGE ATTORNEY REVIEW: The Village Attorney has drafted the attached Resolution.

REFERRED TO BOARD: March 18, 2020 AGENDA ITEM NO: 2
ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT: Community Development
SUBJECT: Approval of a Recommendation by the Plan Commission to Adopt an Ordinance Amending Ordinance No. 1988-1801 and Subsequent Ordinances to Permit Additional Uses at 7001 North Central Park Avenue/7080-7100 North McCormick Boulevard
SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND OF SUBJECT MATTER: Chris Boutros, on behalf of New Lincoln LLC, Property Owner of 7001 North Central Park Avenue/7080-7100 North McCormick Boulevard (commonly known as the “Town Center Warehouse”), requests an Amendment to the Ordinances governing the property as a Planned Unit Development (PUD) and restricting the property to certain permitted uses. According to the Petitioner’s application, the intent of the request is to invigorate the property by expanding the range of permitted uses to include warehousing, distribution, entertainment, health and fitness, and exhibition.
The subject property is approximately 358,500 square feet (approximately 8.23 acres) in area and includes a structure with approximately 230,000 square feet of interior space. The building has historically been used for light industry or light manufacturing, and is surrounded by industrial properties to the north and west, auto dealer inventory lots and a vacant parcel to the south, and the Town Center Mall and Lincolnwood Place senior housing center to the east.
The use of the property is governed by the following Ordinances: Ordinance No. 1988-1801 established a PUD that includes the subject property, more commonly known as
the Town Center Warehouse. Ordinance No. 1990-1901 authorized the Town Center Warehouse to be used for “new car delivery and
preparation; heavier repair jobs; a body repair paint shop in the northeast portion of the building; andindoor storage of cars.”
Ordinance No. 1992-2016 authorized the subleasing of approximately 27,000 square feet of the warehouseto be leased to Bell & Howell for machinery repair;
Ordinance No. 1992-2027 authorized the subleasing of approximately 72,000 square feet of the warehouseto be leased to Grossinger for the storage of files and forms.
Ordinance No. 1998-2393 authorized the manufacturing of artificial fire logs and reserved 100 parkingspaces for that tenant.
Ordinance No. 2015-3181 authorized the leasing of approximately 24,000 square feet of the warehouse fora brewery, beer packaging facility, and tap room.
Requested Approval
Request For Board Action
The Petitioner seeks approval to use the property for warehousing, distribution, entertainment, health and fitness, and exhibition activities. While the Ordinances summarized above permitted uses that entailed warehousing and distribution activities, the Ordinances in no way provide for uses related to entertainment, health and fitness, and exhibition. Therefore, an Ordinance amending these previous Ordinances is required.
March 4, 2020 Plan Commission Public HearingThe Plan Commission held a public hearing related to this request during its March 4, 2020 regular meeting. During the hearing, the Commission discussed the following considerations:
The Petitioner’s request sought approval for “warehousing, distribution, entertainment, health and fitness, and exhibition” uses. However, staff recommended that the approval consider uses already defined in the Zoning Ordinance in order to support a more clear and consistent interpretation of uses. Staff recommended, and the petitioner agreed, that any approvals should reflect the following defined uses that accommodate the nature of his request:
o Warehouseo Manufacturing, lighto Entertainment venueo Commercial recreation facilityo Health club, ando Art gallery.
The majority of the discussion related to the availability of on-site parking. The property currently has 199 parking spaces, which is 19 spaces short of its zoning requirement of 218 spaces if the building were fully occupied with industrial uses. The property utilizes an additional 83 spaces immediately east of the building, but those spaces are owned and controlled by the Town Center Mall. Staff stated that, as new tenants submit applications for Business Licenses, a zoning review would be conducted to ensure that the total parking requirement, at that point in time, as determined by the active uses at the property, is met by the supply of parking on the property as dictated by the Zoning Ordinance. If a new use results in a lack of parking, the Petitioner would either have to secure additional parking or seek relief from the parking requirement.
Staff noted that a portion of the parking lot on the north side of the building is gated off and is exclusively accessible to one tenant. It was clarified that such parking would not be taken into account when determining the total parking supply as it relates to future tenants in other portions of the building. Following the Plan Commission meeting, staff confirmed that the Petitioner understands this approach.
At the end of the discussion, the Plan Commission unanimously approved a motion recommending approval of the Petitioner’s request as stated in the staff report.
199 On-siteParkingSpaces
83 Off-siteParkingSpaces

VILLAGE ATTORNEY REVIEW:The Village Attorney was in attendance at the March 4, 2020 Plan Commission public hearing, and provided guidance as needed regarding the Planned Unit Development and regulatory context. The Village Attorney also drafted the proposed Ordinance attached to this report.

Case #PC-19-19 will be heard at the March 18, 2020 meeting of the Village Board.
V. Case #PC-01-20: 7001 North Central Park Avenue/7080-7100 North McCormick Boulevard – Amendments to Previously-Adopted Ordinances Granting and Amending a Planned Unit Development to Permit Certain Uses on the Premises
Chairman Yohanna announced Case #PC-01-20 for consideration of a request by Chris Boutros, Petitioner, on behalf of New Lincoln LLC, Property Owner, to amend Ordinance No. 1988-1801 establishing certain permitted uses, and subsequent Ordinances amending those permitted uses, to permit warehousing, distribution, entertainment, health and fitness, and exhibition uses at the property commonly known as 7001 North Central Park Avenue/7080-7010 North McCormick Boulevard. Chairman Yohanna swore in the witnesses.
The Petitioner is requesting to expand the spectrum of uses to include entertainment, health and fitness, and exhibition space. As the previously-approved PUD Ordinances only permit warehousing and distribution activities, a PUD Amendment is required to allow entertainment, health and fitness, and exhibition uses. Development Manager Hammel provided background on the regulatory history.
Staff noted the requested warehousing, distribution, entertainment, health and fitness, and exhibition uses have already been defined in the Zoning Ordinance as warehouse, manufacturing (light), entertainment venue, commercial recreation facility, health club, and art gallery. On-site parking capacity requires 218 spaces. There are currently 199 on-site parking spaces on the north and south facades and 83 available parking spaces off the northeast portion of the building owned by the Town Center Mall. Staff stated concern about the access of these spaces as there are some gated parking areas and questioned if this gated access would impact new uses or if current tenants already have a commitment to these spaces. Some of the uses the Petitioner is seeking approval for are inherently more parking intensive. Mr. Boutros stated they have a good faith agreement with the Town Center Mall to utilize their parking spaces.
Chris Boutros, 320 West Illinois Street, Chicago, Illinois, leaseholder, stated they would like to open the space up to multiple tenants. This PUD Amendment request is required due to the fact he has two potential clients, both of which would fall under one of the new proposed use definitions. They currently have 16,000-square feet of the space leased and 190,000-square feet of space available.
Chairman Yohanna asked if there was anyone from the audience who would like to address the Plan Commission. Let the record state no one came forward. With no further discussion, Chairman Yohanna requested a motion.
Motion to recommend approval to amend Ordinance No. 1988-1801 establishing certain permitted uses, and subsequent Ordinances amending those permitted uses, to permit warehousing, distribution, entertainment, health and fitness, and exhibition uses at the property

March 4, 2020 Subject Property: 7001 North Central Park Avenue/ 7080-7100 North McCormick Boulevard
Zoning District: Planned Unit Development (approved in 1988) Petitioner: Chris Boutros, on behalf of New Lincoln LLC, Property Owner Nature of Request: Amendment to Ordinance No. 1988-1801 and subsequent Ordinances in order to permit uses in addition to what is currently permitted as a result of those Ordinances
Notification: Notice was published in the Lincolnwood Review on February 13, 2020. Public Hearing signs were installed at 7001 North Central Park Avenue/7080-7100 North McCormick Boulevard, and mailed legal notices dated February 12, 2020 were provided to properties within 250 feet. Background and Regulatory Context Chris Boutros, on behalf of New Lincoln LLC, Property Owner of 7001 North Central Park Avenue/7080-7100 North McCormick Boulevard (commonly known as the “Town Center Warehouse”), requests an Amendment to the Ordinances governing the property as a Planned Unit Development (PUD) and restricting the property to certain permitted uses. According to the Petitioner’s application, the intent of the request is to invigorate the property by expanding the range of permitted uses to include warehousing, distribution, entertainment, health and fitness, and exhibition.
7001 North Central Park Avenue/7080-7100 North McCormick Boulevard March 4, 2020

The subject property is approximately 358,500-square feet (approximately 8.23 acres) in area and includes a structure with approximately 230,000-square feet of interior space. The building has historically been used for uses related to light industry or light manufacturing. The property is surrounded by industrial properties to the north and west, auto dealer inventory lots and a vacant parcel to the south, and the Town Center Mall to the east. Regulatory Context The subject property is regulated by the following Ordinances as they relate to permitted uses:
Ordinance No. 1988-1801 established a PUD with an area of approximately 72 acres. The primary development of the PUD was the Lincolnwood Town Center Mall, but the PUD also encompassed the subject property, more commonly known as the Town Center Warehouse. That Ordinance referenced the retrofitting of the warehouse building per a proposal brought forth at that time, but staff’s research did not uncover specific aspects of that retrofitting;
Ordinance No. 1990-1901 authorized the Town Center Warehouse to be used for “new car delivery and preparation; heavier repair jobs; a body repair paint shop in the northeast portion of the building; and indoor storage of cars.” These activities were related to auto dealerships that were approved by this same Ordinance;
Ordinance No. 1992-2016 authorized the subleasing of approximately 27,000-square feet of the warehouse to be leased to Bell & Howell for machinery repair;
Ordinance No. 1992-2027 authorized the subleasing of approximately 72,000- square feet of the warehouse to be leased to Grossinger for the storage of files and forms. This activity was expected to include 15-17 employees;
Ordinance No. 1998-2393 authorized the manufacturing of artificial fire logs. The approval required that all manufacturing activities occur indoors, and that the tenant be provided exclusive access to 100 parking spaces; and
Ordinance No. 2015-3181 authorized the leasing of approximately 24,000-square feet of the warehouse for a brewery, beer packaging facility, and tap room. This approval permitted uses for the property (service of alcoholic beverages, and package liquor stores) that were explicitly prohibited by the 1988 Ordinance establishing the PUD.
Required Approval The Petitioner currently seeks approval to use the property for warehousing, distribution, entertainment, health and fitness, and exhibition activities. While the Ordinances summarized above permitted uses that entailed warehousing and distribution activities, the Ordinances in no way provide for uses related to entertainment, health and fitness, and exhibition. Therefore, an Ordinance amending these previous Ordinances is required. Considerations The Plan Commission may consider the following when determining the appropriateness of the Petitioner’s request:
7001 North Central Park Avenue/7080-7100 North McCormick Boulevard March 4, 2020

Alignment with Current Zoning Terms
As previously noted, the Petitioner’s application requests approval for the property to include “warehousing, distribution, entertainment, health and fitness, and exhibition” uses. In an effort to make the consideration of this request – and any future interpretations of proposed uses should the request be approved by the Village – clearer, staff recommends considering this request in the context of uses that are already defined in the Zoning Ordinance and most directly align with those proposed by the Petitioner. Staff has shared the following zoning definitions from Section 2.02 of the Zoning Ordinance with the Petitioner, and he has stated that he feels they represent the uses requested in his application:
WAREHOUSE: A building or structure or part thereof, used principally for the storage of goods and merchandise;
MANUFACTURING, LIGHT: The production, predominantly from previously prepared materials of finished products or parts, including processing, fabrication, assembly, treatment and packaging of such products, and incidental storage, sales, and distribution of such products, but excluding basic industrial processing and custom manufacturing;
ENTERTAINMENT VENUE: An outdoor or indoor area, building, or part of a building, devoted to showing motion pictures, or for dramatic, dance, musical, or other live performances;
COMMERCIAL RECREATIONAL FACILITY: A privately-owned for-profit commercial facility designed and equipped to provide customary leisure time or recreational activities, such as bowling, swimming, miniature golf, paintball, indoor go-carts, ice skating, tennis, racquetball and similar activities. For purposes of this chapter, a firearms shooting range is not a commercial recreational facility;
HEALTH CLUB: A business establishment which: (i) promotes physical fitness; (ii) contains equipment and gymnasia for body exercising or other facilities intended to improve physical fitness, diet, weight control and/or health; and (iii) is generally utilized by members who pay a periodic fee for facility access and use. For purposes of this chapter, a firearms shooting range is not a health club; and
ART GALLERY: An establishment engaged in the sale, loan, or display of art, books, paintings, sculpture, or other works of art. This definition does not include a place designed to be used as a dwelling unit.
Therefore, staff recommends that deliberations related to the Petitioner’s request, and any Ordinance approving his request, use these terms and definitions. On-site Parking Capacity
The structure on the subject property includes approximately 230,000-square feet of interior space. Assuming a small portion of the building would include spaces not applicable to the provisions for calculating on-site parking requirements, the property would require approximately 218 spaces if occupied entirely by industrial uses. The property currently includes a total of 199 spaces, leaving a parking deficit of approximately 19 spaces. However, immediately east of the property, a parking lot located on property owned by the Town Center Mall includes 83 spaces. These spaces are separated from the
7001 North Central Park Avenue/7080-7100 North McCormick Boulevard March 4, 2020
4
mall by the circulator road and are used by occupants of the subject property. The Petitioner has informed staff that he does not have a formal agreement in place ensuring access to these spaces for the subject property, though he has stated a willingness to pursue such an agreement. Historically, the structure has hosted uses that are not parking-intensive. For example, the 1992 approval of the Grossinger storage use allowed for 72,000-square feet of the building to be occupied by an activity that required 15-17 employees. That represents one employee for every 4,800-square feet, which is a less intensive parking demand than the requirement of 1 space per 1,000-square feet of gross floor area for industrial uses. In contrast, the proposed uses intended for occupancy by the general public will likely require substantially more parking than if the same areas were used for industrial uses. The following table compares the parking requirements for the uses requested by the Petitioner. It should be noted that many of the public uses, such as entertainment venues or commercial recreation, would likely create the most parking demand during hours when industrial uses would not be in operation. Proposed Use Parking Requirement Warehouse 1 space / 1,000-square feet of gross floor area Light Manufacturing 1 space / 1,000-square feet of gross floor area Entertainment Venue 1 space / 3 seats, based on maximum occupancy Commercial Recreation Facility 1 space / 3 persons, plus 1 space / 2 full-time employees Health Club 1 space / 3 persons, plus 1 space / 2 full-time employees Art Gallery 1 space / 3 persons, based on maximum occupancy
More parking-intensive uses may create a substantial increase in demand for parking above and beyond scenarios where the building is entirely occupied by industrial tenants, despite the fact that such spaces will typically less space than industrial or warehouse uses. In order to address this, staff recommends that the Plan Commission consider one of the following conditions. Each condition is based on the assumption that the uses on the property would be limited based on the available parking and the collective parking requirements of all uses as per the Zoning Ordinance:
The Petitioner must submit a formal agreement for the use of the spaces immediately east of the property and located on the property of the Town Center Mall; or
In the event that such an agreement cannot be executed, the occupancy of the building must be limited based on the amount of parking under the control of the property owner. If control over any off-site parking is lost in such a manner that the
199 On-site Parking Spaces
83 Off-site Parking Spaces
7001 North Central Park Avenue/7080-7100 North McCormick Boulevard March 4, 2020
5
property can no longer meet the parking requirement, the property owner must either replace the lost parking in another compliant manner, seek a Variation for such parking, or vacate portions of the building in order to meet the combined parking requirement for all tenants.
Regardless of the preference of the Plan Commission, it should be noted that as part of the Business License application process for new tenants, staff will review each application and determine the amount of available parking remaining on the property. Once the parking capacity is maximized, zoning approval for new businesses cannot be granted. Signage
The property currently lacks any substantial signage on either the McCormick Boulevard or Central Park Avenue frontage. This may be due in large part to the fact that the property has typically been used for activities that require little public visibility. However, the proposed uses will likely rely on greater visibility from the public rights-of-way. The Petitioner has not yet sought any permits for signage, and the current request, as stated in the Petitioner’s application, does not include any such signage. Should the Petitioner or Property Owner seek approval of signage in the future, any signage that is compliant with the Zoning Ordinance can be approved through the regular permitting process. Any proposed signage that relies on relief from the Zoning Ordinance will require an additional Ordinance to grant relevant Zoning Modifications. Requested Action The Petitioner requests an Amendment to Ordinance No. 2018-3362 to clarify the effectiveness of development rights previously granted under Ordinance No. 2015-3173. Staff recommends that the Plan Commission consider the specific recommendations enumerated by staff as they pertain to both the 2015 approval and 2018 approval. Documents Attached

REFERRED TO BOARD: March 18, 2020 AGENDA ITEM NO: 3
ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT: Community Development
SUBJECT: Consideration of a Recommendation by the Plan Commission to Adopt an Ordinance Amending Sections 2.02, 4.11, and 4.12 of the Zoning Ordinance Related to “Impervious Surface” and its Applicability to Front Yard Coverage and Driveway Regulations
SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND OF SUBJECT MATTER: The Village Code includes several regulations and provisions related to the management of stormwater in order to minimize the impacts of localized flooding as properties are developed or improved. The Zoning Ordinance specifically includes regulations related to the amount of impervious surface that is allowed for residential properties. These regulations establish a maximum amount of the entire zoning lot that can be covered by impervious surfaces (60%), as well as a maximum portion of the front yard that can covered by impervious surfaces (50%).
While the general intent of these regulations is clear, the way certain terms are defined by the Zoning Ordinance may allow for unintended design characteristics. For example, Sections 4.11 and 4.12 establish 60% as the maximum amount of “impervious coverage” permitted on residential lots. Section 2.02 defines “impervious coverage” as “any hard-surfaced, man-made horizontal area that does not readily absorb or retain water, including, but not limited to, parking and driveway areas, paving bricks, composed stone, sidewalks, and all detached buildings and structures.” Based on the phrase “readily absorb”, it is difficult to determine how permeable pavers or semi-pervious surfaces may fit into this definition and whether they count towards the 60% maximum coverage.
Similarly, Sections 4.11 and 4.12 establish 50% as the maximum amount of front yard coverage with “impervious surface”. Section 2.02 defines “impervious surface” as “a surface which does not allow water to be absorbed so it may percolate into deeper ground. Such surfaces are those constructed of Portland cement, bituminous asphalt, paving brick, composed stone or gravel, or any other surface that allows no water penetration.” Based on the phrases “does not allow water to be absorbed” and “allows no water penetration”, any material, such as permeable pavers, that allows even a portion of surface water to filtrate could be interpreted as not counting against the 50% threshold and could cover the entire front yard area. This could lead to significant stormwater runoff and may not meet the aesthetic intent of the Code.
The definition of “impervious surface” noted above is also referenced in the definition of “driveway”, which reads “any impervious surface providing direct ingress to and egress from a parking space located on any zoning lot.” Based on these related definitions, a vehicular drive aisle made of permeable pavers would not qualify as a “driveway”, even though permeable pavers are a viable material for providing vehicular parking and access to residential garages.
Village Board Committee of the Whole ReferralOn February 4, 2020, the Village Board Committee of the Whole provided feedback regarding staff’s zoning analysis. Trustees provided the following comments or questions for consideration:
Request For Board Action
How does pervious concrete or asphalt factor into these regulations? If they are eligible materials, they must be constructed in a way to effectively allow the filtration of water through the sub-base and to the ground. Similarly, what about “grass-crete” as a qualifying material;
If residents are looking to cover more of their properties with hard surfaces, zoning regulations could offer bonuses if bone fide stormwater management techniques (such as dry wells) are implemented;
In order to be fully effective, permeable pavers must be properly maintained in order to allow the infiltration of water over time. Otherwise, they lose their stormwater management benefit. One Trustee commented that relying solely on the use of permeable pavers to offset stormwater impacts in not an assurance that the issue will be managed over time; and
Trustees suggested requiring landscaping in the interior portion of circular driveways.
At the end of the discussion, the Village Board Committee of the Whole concurred on the following actions: The matter of maximum front yard coverage with “impervious surfaces” was referred to the Plan
Commission for consideration of a Zoning Text Amendment to clarify the intent of the regulation; and The matter of maximum “impervious coverage” for residential lots was referred to the Committee for
Ordinances, Rules, and Boards (CORB) for further analysis and policy discussion.
March 4, 2020 Plan Commission Public HearingThe Plan Commission held a public hearing on this matter during its March 4, 2020 regular meeting. As part of staff’s presentation, the following Text Amendments were recommended:
Amend Sections 4.11 and 4.12 of the Zoning Ordinance to require that a minimum 50% of the front yard be covered in landscaping, rather than the current requirement that allows a maximum of 50% of impervious coverage. The current zoning definition of “landscaping” is “the modification of the landscape for an aesthetic or functional purpose using a combination of elements including trees, shrubs, ground cover, grass, and flowers.” The Plan Commission concurred with staff’s opinion that this definition provides appropriate flexibility to residential property owners and accommodates a number of typical materials, including grass lawns.
Amend the definition of “driveway” to include materials other than “impervious surfaces”, as defined in the Code, but only when approved at the discretion of the Zoning Administrator. For example, permeable pavers are often used as driveway materials, even though they do qualify as “impervious surfaces”. The Village has allowed them to be used as driveways so long as they meet requirements related to vehicle load, the permeability of the sub-base, and installation specifications.
The specific Text Amendment recommended by staff, and reflected in in the proposed Ordinance attached to this report, include the following: (deletions are shown by strikethroughs, and additions are shown in bold underlined text):

Excerpt from Plan Commission Meeting Minutes for March 4, 2020
VI. Case #PC-02-20: Zoning Text Amendment – Consideration of a Text Amendment to Clarify Regulations and Definitions Related to Impervious Surfaces and Materials
Chairman Yohanna announced Case #PC-02-20 for consideration of a referral by the Village Board to amend the Zoning Ordinance to clarify the applicability of certain regulations and definitions related to impervious surfaces, materials, and coverage as they pertain to the maximum permitted impervious coverage of a lot and the maximum permitted coverage with an impervious surface in a front yard.
The Zoning Ordinance specifically includes regulations related to the amount of impervious surfaces allowed on residential properties. The maximum amount of lot coverage that can be covered by impervious surfaces is sixty percent, with a maximum front yard coverage of fifty percent. Impervious coverage is defined as “any hard-surfaced, man-made horizontal area that does not readily absorb or retain water, including, but not limited to, parking and driveway areas, paving bricks, composed stone, sidewalks, and all detached buildings and structures”. The issue with this language means someone could cover their entire front yard with permeable pavers, as it allows some water filtration. To rectify this situation, staff recommends approval of a Text Amendment to specifically address front yard coverage.
Staff’s recommendation would be to amend Section 4.11 and 4.12 of the Zoning Ordinance to require a minimum fifty percent of the front yard be covered in landscaping, rather than a maximum coverage of fifty percent of impervious surfaces. The definition of landscaping is “the modification of the landscape for an aesthetic or functional purpose using a combination of elements including trees, shrubs, ground cover, grass, and flowers”. This change would ensure fifty-percent green space which, staff believes, is the intent of that standard.
Staff’s second recommendation is a Text Amendment is to amend the definition of driveway to read as “any impervious surface, permeable, or semi-permeable surface approved by the Zoning Administrator that provides access to parking space”.
Chairman Yohanna asked if there was anyone from the audience who would like to address the Plan Commission. Let the record state no one came forward. With no further discussion, Chairman Yohanna requested a motion.
Motion to recommend approval to amend the Zoning Ordinance to amend Section 4.11 and 4.12 of the Zoning Ordinance to require a minimum fifty percent of the front yard to be covered in landscaping, rather than a maximum coverage of fifty percent of impervious surfaces and to amend the definition of driveway to read as “any impervious surface, permeable, or semi-permeable surface approved by the Zoning Administrator that provides access to parking space” was made by Commissioner Novoselsky and seconded by Commissioner Sampen. For the record, Commissioner Jakubowski requested that the Village consider adding the word “natural elements” to the driveway definition.

Plan Commission Staff Report Case # PC-02-20
March 4, 2020 Subject: Consideration of a Text Amendment to Clarify Regulations and Definitions Related to Impervious Surfaces and Materials
Petitioner: Village Staff, with a Referral from the Village Board Notification: Notice was published in the Lincolnwood Review on February 13, 2020. Background The Village Code includes several regulations and provisions related to the management of stormwater in order to minimize the impacts of localized flooding as properties are developed or improved. The Zoning Ordinance specifically includes regulations related to the amount of impervious surface that is allowed for residential properties. These regulations establish a maximum amount of the entire zoning lot that can be covered by impervious surfaces (60%), as well as a maximum portion of the front yard that can covered by impervious surfaces (50%). While the general intent of these regulations is clear, the way certain terms are defined by the Zoning Ordinance may allow for unintended design characteristics. For example, Sections 4.11 and 4.12 establish 60% as the maximum amount of “impervious coverage” permitted on residential lots. Section 2.02 defines “impervious coverage” as “any hard-surfaced, man-made horizontal area that does not readily absorb or retain water, including, but not limited to, parking and driveway areas, paving bricks, composed stone, sidewalks, and all detached buildings and structures.” Based on the phrase “readily absorb”, it is difficult to determine how permeable pavers or semi-pervious surfaces may fit into this definition and whether they count towards the 60% maximum coverage. Similarly, Sections 4.11 and 4.12 establish 50% as the maximum amount of front yard coverage with “impervious surface”. Section 2.02 defines “impervious surface” as “a surface which does not allow water to be absorbed so it may percolate into deeper ground. Such surfaces are those constructed of Portland cement, bituminous asphalt, paving brick, composed stone or gravel, or any other surface that allows no water penetration.” Based on the phrases “does not allow water to be absorbed” and “allows no water penetration”,

any material, such as permeable pavers, that allows even a portion of surface water to filtrate could be interpreted as not counting against the 50% threshold and could cover the entire front yard area. This could lead to significant stormwater runoff and may not meet the aesthetic intent of the Code. The definition of “impervious surface” noted above is also referenced in the definition of “driveway”, which reads “any impervious surface providing direct ingress to and egress from a parking space located on any zoning lot.” Based on these related definitions, a vehicular drive aisle made of permeable pavers would not qualify as a “driveway”, even though permeable pavers are a viable material for providing vehicular parking and access to residential garages. Village Board Referral On February 4, 2020, the Village Board Committee of the Whole provided feedback regarding staff’s zoning analysis. Trustees provided the following comments or questions for consideration:
How does pervious concrete or asphalt factor into these regulations? If they are eligible materials, they must be constructed in a way to effectively allow the filtration of water through the sub-base and to the ground. Similarly, what about “grass-crete” as a qualifying material;
If residents are looking to cover more of their properties with hard surfaces, zoning regulations could offer bonuses if bone fide stormwater management techniques (such as dry wells) are implemented;
In order to be fully effective, permeable pavers must be properly maintained in order to allow the infiltration of water over time. Otherwise, they lose their stormwater management benefit. One Trustee commented that relying solely on the use of permeable pavers to offset stormwater impacts in not an assurance that the issue will be managed over time; and
Trustees suggested requiring landscaping in the interior portion of circular driveways.
At the end of the discussion, the Village Board Committee of the Whole concurred on the following actions:
The matter of maximum front yard coverage with “impervious surfaces” was referred to the Plan Commission for consideration of a Zoning Text Amendment to clarify the intent of the regulation; and
The matter of maximum “impervious coverage” for residential lots was referred to the Committee for Ordinances, Rules, and Boards (CORB) for further analysis and policy discussion.
Staff Analysis and Recommendations Regarding Front Yard Coverage As noted above, the specific language related to the regulation of front yard coverage allows a property owner to cover their entire front yard with permeable pavers, assuming they address any stormwater management concerns addressed through engineering review that would be conducted as part of issuance of a Building Permit. However, staff’s opinion is that the intent of this regulation is two-fold: 1) to ensure stormwater management is

supported; and 2) to preserve green space and maintain a desired neighborhood aesthetic for areas visible from the public street. There are two primary ways to address this regulatory issue:
Amend the definition of “impervious surface” to clarify that permeable pavers qualify as such. This would address the issue as it relates to front yard coverage, but may have unintended effects on other regulations that rely on the definitions of “impervious coverage” or “impervious surface”. It is anticipated that this matter will be analyzed more thoroughly as CORB undertakes discussions related to overall lot coverage; and
Amend Sections 4.11 and 4.12 of the Zoning Ordinance to require that at least 50% of the front yard be covered in landscaping, rather than the current requirement that allows a maximum of 50% of impervious coverage. This is staff’s recommendation, as this approach removes reliance on the unclear definition of “impervious coverage”. The current zoning definition of “landscaping” is “the modification of the landscape for an aesthetic or functional purpose using a combination of elements including trees, shrubs, ground cover, grass, and flowers.” In staff’s opinion, this definition provides appropriate flexibility to residential property owners and accommodates a number of typical materials, including grass lawns. It also makes a clear distinction between landscape areas and potential hardscape materials that may serve as sidewalks, driveways, or porches.
Staff Recommendation Regarding the Definition of “Driveway” Staff recommends a Text Amendment to the definition of “driveway” that would allow materials other than “impervious surfaces”, as defined in the Code, but only when approved at the discretion of the Zoning Administrator. For example, permeable pavers are often used as driveway materials, even though they do qualify as “impervious surfaces”. The Village has allowed them to be used as driveways so long as they meet requirements related to vehicle load, the permeability of the sub-base, and installation specifications. The recommended amendment to the definition of “driveway” would allow for this practice to continue, and would authorize the Zoning Administrator to assess and approve or deny any other materials proposed by property owners. Proposed Text Amendments Based on the recommendations above, staff proposes the following Zoning Text Amendments (deletions are shown by strikethroughs, and additions are shown in bold underlined text): * * * * 4.11 Area, bulk, density and setback standards: R-1, R-2, and R-3 Districts.

Staff Recommendations Staff seeks guidance from the Village Board Committee of the Whole regarding the following recommendations and related policy questions:
1. Clarify the intent of Section 4.11 and 4.12 as they related to the 60% maximum impervious coverage for the entire lot and 50% maximum front yard coverage for impervious surfaces.
• Should either of the regulations referenced above allow for the use of semi-pervious materials to meet the threshold, or should either of those regulations be met only through the use of grass or landscaped areas?
2. Clarify the definitions of “impervious coverage” and “impervious surface” to establish the permissibility of semi-pervious materials.
• For the definition of “impervious coverage”, is there a technical threshold for the term “readily absorb” that can allow staff to easily assess a design proposal for compliance (i.e. a proposed material that allows for filtration at least at the same rate as a typical grass surface)?
• For the definition of “impervious surface”, should the language be amended to include semi-pervious materials rather than identifying only those that allow no water penetration?
3. Amend the definition of “driveway” to accommodate appropriate semi-pervious materials.
REQUESTED ACTION Staff requests that the Village Board Committee of the Whole provide direction regarding the staff recommendations and policy questions identified in this report, and refer the matter to the Plan Commission for a public hearing. DOCUMENTS ATTACHED

ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT: Community Development
SUBJECT: Consideration of a Recommendation by the Plan Commission to Amend the Zoning Ordinance to Establish the New Use “Dermal Pigmentation Establishment, Permanent” and Permit That Use as a Special Use in the M-B Manufacturing and Business District and B-2 General Business District
SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND OF SUBJECT MATTER: In 2019, a property owner requested that the Village consider a zoning Text Amendment to clarify the permissibility of tattoo parlors in the community’s commercial districts. The only provision that specifically mentions this use prohibits the use in the B-1 Traditional Business Zoning District, Business/Residential Transition Overlay. Otherwise, the Zoning Ordinance is unclear regarding the permissibility of tattoo parlors in other parts of the community. Following that finding, Damien Kardaras, Petitioner, filed an application requesting that the Village clarify the permissibility of tattoo parlors in the Village. Since that application was submitted, the following deliberations have taken place:
On October 2, 2019, the Village Board Committee of the Whole discussed the matter prior toreferring it to the Plan Commission for a public hearing. The Village Board discussed potentialapproaches regarding the regulation of tattoo parlors, including where they may be most appropriate,whether they should require Special Use approval, and if they should be included under the definitionof other uses, such as “personal services establishment”. During its discussion, the Village Board hadseveral questions related to the operation of a tattoo parlor. The Petitioner provided informationrelated to licensing, inspections, and oversight by the State of Illinois related to regulations aimed atminimizing blood-borne illnesses. Outside of these special licensing requirements and monitoringthat all tattoo parlors are subject to, the proposed use was discussed as operating similar to othertypes of uses considered personal service establishments.
Following the Village Board referral but prior to the Plan Commission public hearing, staffreceived an inquiry about the permissibility of microblading, which is a semi-permanent cosmeticeyebrow procedure that is less invasive than tattooing, but requires specific certifications andhealth oversight due to the risk of blood-borne pathogens. Given the apparent similarities betweenmicroblading and tattooing, staff determined that it was appropriate to include discussion ofmicroblading and other semi-permanent pigmentation services in the discussion related to thepermissibility of tattoo parlors.
During a public hearing held on November 6, 2019 regular meeting, the Plan Commissionersopined that tattoo parlors are similar in operation to hair salons, cosmetician services, and otherrelated uses covered under the definition of “personal service establishments”. The Commissionfound that there is reason to treat them differently than those similar uses from a regulatory
Request For Board Action
standpoint. Based on that opinion, the Plan Commission unanimously approved a motion recommending the following Zoning Ordinance Text Amendments:
o Amend the definition of “personal service establishments” in Section 2.02 of the Zoning Ordinance to include “dermal pigmentation establishments”; and
o Amend Section 2.02 of the Zoning Ordinance to include a definition for “dermal pigmentation establishments” that reads “any establishment, except a hospital or other facility operated by a licensed medical practitioner, where the act of puncturing the skin and inserting indelible colors to create permanent or semi-permanent pigmentation or color is performed.”
During the November 19, 2019 Village Board meeting, staff presented the matter and summarized the Plan Commission’s discussion and recommendation. The Board then referred the matter to CORB for further discussion.
Following the November 19, 2019 Village Board meeting, staff received a petition signed by 40 Lincolnwood residents. The header of the petitions states that “the Village of Lincolnwood Government now considers allowing Tattoo Parlors. As signed below, we Lincolnwood residents do not want Tattoo Parlors to be allowed in our Village.” The petition is included as an attachment to this report.
During the January 23, 2020 CORB meeting, Trustees discussed appropriate locations for “dermal pigmentation establishments” in the community. Members of Commission in attendance concurred that such a use is most appropriate in the M-B Manufacturing and Business zoning district. A motion was passed remanding the case back to the Plan Commission to hold a public hearing regarding a recommendation to permit “dermal pigmentation establishments” in the M-B Manufacturing and Business zoning district. Members of CORB felt it is appropriate to permit microblading and other services related to cosmeticians and salons as a component of “personal service establishments.”
During the February 4, 2020 Village Board meeting, Trustees concurred with CORB’s recommendation and remanded the matter to the Plan Commission for further deliberation regarding the permissibility of “dermal pigmentation establishments” in the M-B zoning district as a special use.
Prior to the Plan Commission public hearing, the petitioner submitted a petition with the signatures of 42 residents and business owners who support his request.
March 4, 2020 Plan Commission Public HearingDuring the March 4, 2020 Plan Commission public hearing, Commissioners discussed whether it is appropriate to discuss the permissibility of the use in zoning districts other that M-B. This discussion related to the fact that the Plan Commission’s previous recommendation was to consider tattoo parlors as part of the definition of “personal service establishments”. Doing so would make the use permitted in the B-1, B-2, and B-3 zoning districts as either a permitted use or special use, depending on the floor area of a specific location. The Commission felt is it appropriate to discuss the permissibility of the use on other districts.
After extensive discussion that touched upon a number of aspects of this request, the Commission was advised to address specific policy questions.
Commissioners discussed the relationship between tattoo parlors and less invasive or semi-permanent cosmetic services, with microblading being the cited example. After discussion, the Commission
concluded that such a distinction should be made in the zoning code by stablishing a definition for “dermal pigmentation establishments, permanent” that relates to uses such as tattoo parlors. The Commission stated that this zoning approach recognizes that microblading and other semi-permanent services can continue to operate as an ancillary service to businesses whose primary use qualifies as a “personal service establishment”.
Commissioners then discussed the appropriateness of allowing “dermal pigmentation establishments, permanent” in the M-B zoning district. During a portion of the discussion, some Commissioners felt the use may not thrive in the M-B district. However, they ultimately concluded that it is an appropriate use in the M-B district.
Finally, Commissioners discussed if the “dermal pigmentation establishment, permanent” use is appropriate in other zoning districts. They concurred that is should be permitted in the B-2 zoning district. This is a more narrow scope of permissibility than the Plan Commission’s original recommendation in November 2019 that would have permitted the use in the B-1, B-2 and B-3 zoning districts.
Based on the discussions noted above, the Plan Commission unanimously passed three distinct motions recommending the following zoning Text Amendments:
Amend the Zoning Ordinance to establish a definition for “dermal pigmentation establishments,permanent” as presented in staff’s report;
Amend the Zoning Ordinance to permit “dermal pigmentation establishments, permanent” as aSpecial Use in the M-B zoning district; and
Amend the Zoning Ordinance to permit “dermal pigmentation establishments, permanent” as aSpecial Use in the B-2 zoning district.
Clarification of Public Hearing DiscussionDuring the Plan Commission public hearing, there were some comments made that staff was unable to clarify or elaborate on at the time. Clarification of these comments is as follows:
The Petitioner was provided with notification of the January 23, 2020 CORB meeting via an email sent bythe Assistant Village Manager on January 20, 2020. (The packet for that meeting was more broadlydistributed via the Village’s e-gov email distribution list on January 17, 2020.)
According to the Illinois Department of Public Health, microblading is regulated as a “body artestablishment”, similarly to tattooing and piercing. Microblading does not fall under the licenses related tocosmeticians or estheticians.
Staff was asked to elaborate on the discussion that took place during CORB. However, the discussionmoved in a different direction without a complete response being provided. It should be noted, as reflectedin the minutes from the January 23, 2020 CORB meeting, that members of the committee stated that the M-B district would be an appropriate location for “dermal pigmentation establishments” due to the fact thatthe Village is considering ways to attract a broader and more eclectic mix of uses to that area.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:None
VILLAGE ATTORNEY REVIEW:The Village Attorney attended the November 6, 2019 Plan Commission public hearing, drafted the Ordinance originally presented to the Village Board on November 19, 2019, provided guidance regarding the Village’s ability to regulate tattoo parlors, attended the January 23, 2020 CORB meeting by conference call, advised staff regarding the March 4, 2020 Plan Commission public hearing, and attended that public hearing.

Excerpt from Plan Commission Meeting Minutes for March 4, 2020IV. Case #PC-19-19: Consideration of a Text Amendment to Clarify the
Permissibility of Tattoo Parlors in the M-B Zoning District
Chairman Yohanna announced Case #PC-19-19 for consideration of a request by Damien Kardaras, Property Owner of 3940 West Touhy Avenue, and of a related referral by the Village Board, to amend the Zoning Ordinance to allow tattoo parlors as a permitted Special Use in the M-B, Manufacturing and Business Zoning District.
On November 6, 2019, Petitioner Damien Kadaras came before the Plan Commission for approval of a tattoo at 3940 West Touhy Avenue located in the B-2, Business Zoning District. The Plan Commission unanimously approved a motion to amend the definition of “personal service establishments” in Section 2.02 of the Zoning Ordinance to include “dermal pigmentation establishments and amend Section 2.02 to include a definition for “dermal pigmentation establishments” to read “any establishment, except a hospital or other facility operated by a licensed medical practitioner, where the act of puncturing the skin and inserting indelible colors to create permanent or semi-permanent pigmentation or color, is performed”.
At the November 19, 2019 meeting of the Village Board, this matter was referred to the Committee of Ordinances, Rules, and Boards (CORB), a subcommittee of the Village Board, for further discussion. Following this meeting, staff received a petition opposing tattoo parlors in the Village.
At the January 23, 2020 CORB meeting, members concurred this use would be most appropriate in the M-B, Manufacturing and Business Zoning District. A motion was passed remanding the case back to the Plan Commission for further discussion. CORB members felt it appropriate to permit microblading and other services related to cosmeticians and salons as a component of “personal service establishments”.
On February 4, 2020, the Village Board remanded the matter to the Plan Commission for further deliberation as a new use in the M-B, Manufacturing and Business Zoning District.
Based on the CORB’s recommendation, staff recommends the Plan Commission consider the following actions:
1. Amend Section 2.02 of the Zoning Ordinance to clarify the following definitions:
a. Add a definition for “dermal pigmentation establishment, permanent” to establish a definition, pertinent to tattoo parlors, as follows: “dermal pigmentation establishment: permanent – any establishment, except a hospital or other facility operated by a licensed medical practitioner, where the act of puncturing the skin and inserting indelible colors to create permanent pigmentation or color is performed, often associated with tattoos”; and
b. Add “dermal pigmentation services, semi-permanent” to establish a definition, pertinent to microblading and other cosmetician-oriented procedures, as follows: “dermal pigmentation establishment: semi-permanent – any establishment, except a

hospital or other facility operated by a licensed medical practitioner, where the act of puncturing the skin and inserting indelible colors to create semi-permanent pigmentation or color is performed, often associated with hair salons or cosmeticians”.
2. Amend “personal services establishment” to include “dermal pigmentation services, semi-permanent” to permit such uses similarly to personal services establishments; and
3. Amend Table 4.01.1 to include a new line entitled “dermal pigmentation establishment, permanent”, and identify it as permitted as a Special Use in the M-B Zoning District.
The Commissioners discussed their opposition to CORB’s direction to allow tattoo parlors only in the M-B District, the distinction between permanent and semi-permanent uses, and if the two definitions should be combined.
Chairman Yohanna swore in the Petitioner Damien Kardaras, 7150 North Karlov Avenue, and owner of the subject property. Mr. Kardaras submitted a petition of neighbors supporting this business.
Village Attorney Passman reiterated the Village Board has not taken any action on this request except for remanding it to CORB for further discussion. The Plan Commission’s direction is to specifically opine on CORB’s recommendations to add a definition for “dermal pigmentation establishments, permanent”, “dermal pigmentation establishments, semi-permanent”, amend “personal services establishment” to include “dermal pigmentation services, semi-permanent” to permit such uses similar to personal services establishments, and amend Table 4.01.1 to include “dermal pigmentation establishment, permanent” as a permitted Special Use in the M-B, Manufacturing and Business Zoning District. CORB’s request does not preclude the Plan Commission from reiterating their approval to allow this use as a Special Use in the B-1 Zoning District.
Chairman Yohanna swore in Petitioner Kaitlyn Moskowitz, 8044 West Lyons Street, Niles, Illinois. Ms. Moskowitz agreed that microblading should be categorized as semi-permanent and this procedure does not require licensing, unlike tattoo artists. After consulting the Illinois Department of Public Health’s website, Mr. Passman replied, for the record and without further research, he is not certain whether microblading is an unlicensed activity.
Mr. Mario Sivric, 6444 North Kolmar Avenue, spoke to his support of this business located in the B-2 District.
In agreement with Commissioner Jakubowski, Chairman Yohanna stated the Plan Commission should send a message to the Village Board, without equivocation, that opposition from over a mile way should not be deemed significant. What is significant is a petition from neighbors, within walking distance, supporting this business. Commissioner Jakubowski said there is no reason to deny this request from a health perspective, and the Village shouldn’t put their prejudices into Village Code.

Plan Commission Staff Report Case # PC-19-19
March 4, 2020 Subject: Village Board Referral to Further Deliberate the Issue of Creating the New Use “Dermal Pigmentation Establishment” to be permitted in the M-B Manufacturing and Business Zoning District as a Special Use Petitioner: Original request by Damien C. Kardaras, E.A, with referral to the Plan Commission for further deliberation by the Village Board Notification: Notice of a Public Hearing regarding the original request was published in the Lincolnwood Review on October 17, 2019, and notice of a Public Hearing regarding the Village Board referral to the Plan Commission was published on February 13, 2020. Background Damien C. Kardaras, Petitioner, initially requested the Village’s consideration of a Zoning Text Amendment to clarify the permissibility of tattoo parlors in the Village. That request arose from a denial of a Business License application for a tattoo parlor in the B-2 Zoning District based on staff’s determination that the use is not explicitly permitted as per Table 4.01.1 Permitted and Special Uses in All Zoning District of the Zoning Ordinance, and is, therefore, prohibited. The following is a summary of discussions among Village Boards and Commissions related to this request:
On October 2, 2019, the Village Board Committee of the Whole discussed the matter prior to referring it to the Plan Commission for a Public Hearing. The Village Board discussed potential approaches regarding the regulation of tattoo parlors, including where they may be most appropriate, whether they should require Special Use approval, and if they should be included under the definition of other uses, such as “personal services establishment”. During its discussion, the Village Board had several questions related to licensing, inspections, and oversight by the State of Illinois. Outside of these special licensing requirements and monitoring that all tattoo parlors are subject to, the proposed use was discussed as operating similar to other types of uses considered personal service establishments;
Following the Village Board referral, but prior to the Plan Commission Public Hearing, staff received an inquiry about the permissibility of microblading, which is a

semi-permanent cosmetic eyebrow procedure that is less invasive than tattooing, but requires specific certifications and health oversight due to the risk of blood-borne pathogens. Given the apparent similarities between microblading and tattooing, staff determined that it was appropriate to include discussion of microblading and other semi-permanent pigmentation services in the discussion related to the permissibility of tattoo parlors;
During a Public Hearing held on November 6, 2019, the Plan Commission opined that
tattoo parlors are similar in operation to hair salons, cosmetician services, and other related uses covered under the definition of “personal service establishments”. The Plan Commission found that there is no reason to treat them differently than those similar uses from a regulatory standpoint. Based on that opinion, the Plan Commission unanimously approved a motion recommending the following Zoning Ordinance Text Amendments:
o Amend the definition of “personal service establishments” in Section 2.02 of the Zoning Ordinance to include “dermal pigmentation establishments”; and
o Amend Section 2.02 of the Zoning Ordinance to include a definition for “dermal pigmentation establishments” that reads “any establishment, except a hospital or other facility operated by a licensed medical practitioner, where the act of puncturing the skin and inserting indelible colors to create permanent or semi-permanent pigmentation or color is performed.”
During the November 19, 2019 Village Board meeting, staff presented the matter and summarized the Plan Commission’s discussion and recommendation. The Board then referred the matter to the Committee for Ordinance, Rules, and Boards (CORB), a subcommittee of the Village Board, for further discussion;
Following the November 19, 2019 Village Board meeting, staff received a petition signed by 40 Lincolnwood residents. The header of the petitions states that “the Village of Lincolnwood Government now considers allowing Tattoo Parlors. As signed below, we Lincolnwood residents do not want Tattoo Parlors to be allowed in our Village.” The petition is included as an attachment to this report;
During the January 23, 2020 CORB meeting, Trustees discussed appropriate locations for “dermal pigmentation establishments” in the community. Members of CORB in attendance concurred that such a use is most appropriate in the M-B Manufacturing and Business Zoning District. A motion was passed remanding the case back to the Plan Commission to hold a Public Hearing regarding a recommendation to permit “dermal pigmentation establishments” in the M-B Manufacturing and Business Zoning District. It should be noted members of CORB felt it is appropriate to permit microblading and other services related to cosmeticians and salons as a component of “personal service establishments”; and
On February 4, 2020, the Village Board remanded the matter to the Plan Commission
for further deliberation, specifically stating that the Plan Commission consider the appropriateness of permitting “dermal pigmentation establishments” as a new use in Table 4.01.1, in the M-B Manufacturing and Business Zoning District as a Special Use.

Recommended Text Amendment Based on the recommendation of CORB, staff presents the following Zoning Code Text Amendments for consideration by the Plan Commission:
Amend Section 2.02 of the Zoning Ordinance to clarify the following definitions: o Add a definition for “dermal pigmentation establishment, permanent” to
establish a definition, pertinent to tattoo parlors, as follows: “dermal pigmentation establishment: permanent – any establishment, except a hospital or other facility operated by a licensed medical practitioner, where the act of puncturing the skin and inserting indelible colors to create permanent pigmentation or color is performed, often associated with tattoos”; and

Amend Table 4.01.1 to include a new line entitled “dermal pigmentation establishment, permanent”, and identify it as permitted as a Special Use in the M-B Zoning District.
Requested Action As per the direction of the Village Board, staff requests that the Plan Commission further deliberate the issue of creating the new use “dermal pigmentation establishment” to be permitted in the M-B Manufacturing and Business Zoning District as a Special Use and consider staff’s recommended text amendments, as presented above, to that effect.

SUBJECT: Consideration of a Recommendation by the Committee for Ordinances, Rules and Boards (CORB) that the Village Board Remand Plan Commission Case #PC-19-19 to the Plan Commission for Further Deliberation on the Issue of Creating the New Use “Dermal Pigmentation Establishment” to be Permitted in the M-B Manufacturing and Business District as a Special Use
SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND OF SUBJECT MATTER:
In 2019, a property owner requested that the Village consider a zoning Text Amendment to clarify the permissibility of tattoo parlors in the community’s commercial districts. The only provision that specifically mentions this use prohibits the use in the B-1 Traditional Business Zoning District, Business/Residential Transition Overlay. Otherwise, the Zoning Ordinance is unclear regarding the permissibility of tattoo parlors in other parts of the community. Since that request was submitted to staff, the following deliberations have taken place:
On October 2, 2019, the Village Board Committee of the Whole discussed the matter prior toreferring it to the Plan Commission for a public hearing, the Village Board discussedpotential approached regarding the regulation of tattoo parlors, including where they maybe most appropriate, whether they should require Special Use approval, and if they shouldbe included under the definition of other uses, such as “personal services establishment”.During its discussion, the Village Board had several questions related to the operation of atattoo parlor. The Petitioner provided information related to licensing, inspections, andoversight by the State of Illinois related to regulations aimed at minimizing blood-borneillnesses. Outside of these special licensing requirements and monitoring that all tattooparlors are subject to, the proposed use was discussed as operating similar to other types ofuses considered personal service establishments.
Following the Village Board referral but prior to the Plan Commission public hearing,staff received an inquiry about the permissibility of microblading, which is a semi-permanent cosmetic eyebrow procedure that is less invasive than tattooing, but requiresspecific certifications and health oversight due to the risk of blood-borne pathogens.Given the apparent similarities between microblading and tattooing, staff determinedthat it was appropriate to include discussion of microblading and other semi-permanentpigmentation services in the discussion related to the permissibility of tattoo parlors.
Request For Board Action
During a public hearing held on November 6, 2019 regular meeting, the Plan Commissioners opined that tattoo parlors are similar in operation to hair salons, cosmetician services, and other related uses covered under the definition of “personal service establishments”. The Commission found that there is reason to treat them differently than those similar uses from a regulatory standpoint. Based on that opinion, the Plan Commission unanimously approved a motion recommending the following Zoning Ordinance Text Amendments:
o Amend the definition of “personal service establishments” in Section 2.02 of the Zoning Ordinance to include “dermal pigmentation establishments”; and
o Amend Section 2.02 of the Zoning Ordinance to include a definition for “dermal pigmentation establishments” that reads “any establishment, except a hospital or other facility operated by a licensed medical practitioner, where the act of puncturing the skin and inserting indelible colors to create permanent or semi-permanent pigmentation or color is performed.”
During the November 19, 2019 Village Board meeting, staff presented the matter and summarized the Plan Commission’s discussion and recommendation. The Board then referred the matter to CORB for further discussion.
Following the November 19, 2019 Village Board meeting, staff received a petition signed by 40 Lincolnwood residents. The header of the petitions states that “the Village of Lincolnwood Government now considers allowing Tattoo Parlors. As signed below, we Lincolnwood residents do not want Tattoo Parlors to be allowed in our Village.” The petition is included as an attachment to this report.
During the January 23, 2020 CORB meeting, Trustees discussed appropriate locations for “dermal pigmentation establishments” in the community. Members of Commission in attendance concurred that such a use is most appropriate in the M-B Manufacturing and Business zoning district. A motion was passed remanding the case back to the Plan Commission to hold a public hearing regarding a recommendation to permit “dermal pigmentation establishments” in the M-B Manufacturing and Business zoning district. It should be noted that members of CORB felt it is appropriate to permit microblading and other services related to cosmeticians and salons as a component of “personal service establishments.”
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None VILLAGE ATTORNEY REVIEW: The Village Attorney drafted the Ordinance originally presented to the Village Board on November 19, 2019. The Village Attorney also provided guidance regarding the constitutionality of regulating tattoo parlors and attended the January 23, 2020 CORB meeting by conference call.

New Business
A) Tattoo Parlor Permissibility
The topic was presented by Doug Hammel using PowerPoint
• Mr. Hammel stated that tattoo parlors and associated activities are not explicitly prohibited by the Code. As part of the process staff completed research looking at comparable communities and found no consistent or specific regulations in place related to this topic.
2
• Mr. Hammel added that the Village had received a request for microblading, which has a similar cosmetic service and looked for coherence in regulations.
• In summarizing the legislative history of this topic until this point, Mr. Hammel stated that at the conclusion of their deliberations, the Plan Commission found this to be most aligned with a service establishment.
• Trustee Nickell asked if the hours requested for this business were more in line with the hours for a restaurant-type use which is different than what would be expected of a typical personal services establishment.
o Mr. Hammel stated that by Code that no business within 75 feet of a residential property must operate with the hours requested for this use of working no later than 11:00 pm.
• Trustee Nickell asked if the applicant was notified of this meeting. o Mr. Meyer and Mr. Hammel stated that the property owner / applicant was
notified of the CORB meeting. • Trustee Sargon said that microblading is more semi-permanent so was not sure if it
would fall into the cosmetic category. • Trustee Nickell asked about the legal guidance on this matter.
o Attorney Elrod stated that when considering tattoo parlors that the Board should think of this as a clean state and that the Village should look at the entire map of the Village to picture where these uses should be deemed appropriate in the Village and where the Village Board would deem these types of uses as inappropriate so that potential users would know where the use may be allowed.
o Attorney Elrod added that once you deem it appropriate, the Village Board will need to determine if it is a permitted use or a special use to determine if a public hearing process to determine if someone’s particular use is in compliance with the Village Code
• Trustee Sargon stated it would make sense that this use in the MB may be appropriate • Trustee Nickell said that she envisions a reimagining of the MB area of the Village
with a revitalization of that area and the potential use of tattoo parlors may be well suited for that area.
• After deliberating, Trustee Sargon made a motion to recommend that the Village Board remand the entire application back to the Plan Commission so that the Plan Commission can consider a limited definition of consisting of dermal pigmentation and mapping of that use solely within the MB District and only as a special use. It was further recommended as part of the motion that the Village Board further recommends that the Plan Commission conduct a special use for the new public hearing. The motion was seconded by Trustee Hlepas Nickell and passed via a voice vote.

REFERRED TO BOARD: November 19, 2019 AGENDA ITEM NO: 8 ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT: Community Development SUBJECT: Consideration of a Recommendation by the Plan Commission to Adopt an Ordinance
Amending the Zoning Code to Clarify the Permissibility of Tattoo Parlors SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND OF SUBJECT MATTER: Damien C. Kardaras, Petitioner, has requested the Village’s consideration of a Zoning Text Amendment to clarify the permissibility of tattoo parlors in the Village. Recently, a Business License application was denied for a tattoo parlor at a property owned by the Petitioner in the B-2 General Business Zoning District. The application was denied based on the fact that the proposed use was interpreted by staff to be a “tattoo parlor”, and that use is not explicitly permitted as per Table 4.01.1 Permitted and Special Uses in All Zoning District of the Zoning Ordinance. In reviewing the Business License Application referenced above, staff considered whether “tattoo parlors” fall under the zoning category of a “personal service establishment. That definition reads as follows: “PERSONAL SERVICE ESTABLISHMENT: A business that provides personal services directly to customers at the site of the business or that receives goods from or returns goods to the customer which have been treated or processed at another location, including, without limitation, travel agencies, dry cleaning and laundry drop-off and pickup stations, tailors, hair stylists, cosmeticians, toning or tanning salons, currency exchanges, postal substations, package delivery and pickup stations, shoe repair shops, interior design studios, dance and martial arts studios, and domestic pet services.” Since the definition does not specifically mention tattoo parlors, staff determined that use to be prohibited based on the legal basis that a use that is not explicitly designated as permitted is by default prohibited. Village Board Referral On October 2, 2019, the Village Board discussed this matter and referred it to the Plan Commission. As part of that discussion, the Village Board discussed the following policy questions: What zoning districts are “Tattoo parlor” most appropriate? Trustees suggested that proposed use could be permitted in other areas outside of the B-1 Traditional Business zoning district, Business-Residential Transition Overlay, where it is explicitly prohibited. Trustees requested that the Plan Commission consider which areas of the Village or zoning districts may be most appropriate for allowing this use. Trustees recommended that it be considered a Special Use.
Request For Board Action
Should they be considered a permitted use similar to “personal service establishments”? Staff presented various options for how tattoo parlors could be regulated in the Zoning Ordinance. One of those options is to amend the definition of “personal services establishment” to specifically include tattoo parlors. This approach would allow for the use as follows:
• In the B-1 and B-2 districts, tattoo parlors with a gross floor area of less than 2,000 square feet would be permitted;
• In the B-1 and B-2 districts, tattoo parlors with a gross floor area greater than 2,000 square feet would require Special Use approval; and
• In the B-3 districts, all tattoo parlors, regardless of gross floor area, would be permitted. The other option presented by staff is to create a new line item in Table 4.01.1 that specifically regulates tattoo parlors in different zoning districts as its own distinct use. Are there any special regulations or considerations that should apply to “tattoo parlors”? During its discussion, the Village Board had several questions related to the operation of a tattoo parlor. The Petitioner provided information related to licensing, inspections, and oversight by the State of Illinois related to regulations aimed at minimizing blood-borne illnesses. Outside of these special licensing requirements and monitoring that all tattoo parlors are subject to, the proposed use was discussed as operating similar to other types of uses considered personal service establishments. Plan Commission Public Hearing The Plan Commission held a public hearing on this matter during its November 6, 2019 regular meeting. Staff presented various options regarding how the permissibility of tattoo parlors could be clarified in the code. In addition to the policy questions discussed by the Village Board, the Plan Commission discussed how other similar uses, such as microblading, could be addressed, given that such uses require State of Illinois Department of Health oversight and certain licensing. Plan Commissioners concurred that tattoo parlors are similar in operation to hair salons, cosmetician services, and other related uses covered under the definition of “personal service establishments”. The Commission does not believe there is reason to treat them differently than those similar uses from a regulatory standpoint. Based on that opinion, the Plan Commission unanimously approved a motion recommending the following Zoning Ordinance Text Amendments, which are reflected in the proposed Ordinance attached to this report:
• Amend the definition of “personal service establishments” in Section 2.02 of the Zoning Ordinance to include “dermal pigmentation establishments”; and
• Amend Section 2.02 of the Zoning Ordinance to include a definition for “dermal pigmentation establishments” that reads “any establishment, except a hospital or other facility operated by a licensed medical practitioner, where the act of puncturing the skin and inserting indelible colors to create permanent or semi-permanent pigmentation or color is performed.”
This would make “dermal pigmentation establishments”, including tattoo parlors, microblading services, and other uses where the skin is punctured for the purposes of permanent or semi-permanent pigmentation, permitted as follows:
• In the B-1 and B-2 districts, tattoo parlors with a gross floor area of less than 2,000 square feet would be permitted;
• In the B-1 and B-2 districts, tattoo parlors with a gross floor area greater than 2,000 square feet would require Special Use approval; and
• In the B-3 districts, all tattoo parlors, regardless of gross floor area, would be permitted. FINANCIAL IMPACT: None
VILLAGE ATTORNEY REVIEW: The Village Attorney advised staff regarding various options for clarifying the permissibility of tattoo parlors in the Village, and provided commentary during the Plan Commission public hearing in response to discussions held at that time.

Excerpt from the November 6, 2019 Plan Commission Regular Meeting
VI. Case #PC-19-19: Zoning Code Text Amendment – Consideration of a Text Amendment to Clarify the Permissibility of Tattoo Parlors in the B-1, B-2, B-3, and M-B Zoning Districts
VII. Case #PC-20-19: 3940 West Touhy Avenue – Special Use request for a Tattoo Parlor at 3940-46 West Touhy Avenue
Chairman Yohanna announced Case #PC-19-19 for consideration of a request by Damien Kardaras, Property Owner at 3940 West Touhy Avenue, to consider a Zoning Code Text Amendment clarifying the permissibility of tattoo parlors in the B-1 Traditional Business, B-2 General Business, B-3 Village Center PD, and M-B Manufacturing and Business Zoning Districts, and Case #PC-20-19 for consideration of a request by Damien Kardaras, Property Owner, to approve a Special Use to allow a tattoo parlor 3940-46 West Touhy Avenue.
Development Manager Hammel provided background on this proposed Text Amendment and whether or not a tattoo parlor would be considered under the definition of a “personal service establishment”. The only instance where tattoo parlors are explicitly mentioned is in Section 4.07(2)d, where they are specifically listed as a prohibited use in the B-1 Traditional Business Zoning District, Business/Residential Transition Overlay. Ben Schuster confirmed that since the definition of a “personal service establishment” does not specifically mention tattoo parlors, it is staff’s belief, since the use is not explicitly designed as permitted, that it would be prohibited by default. Discussion items include what zoning districts are most appropriate should tattoo parlors be considered a permitted use similar to personal service establishments, or should any special regulations or considerations apply. Another option is to create a new line item in Table 4.01.1 Permitted and Special Uses in All Zoning Districts that specifically regulates tattoo parlors in different zoning districts as its own distinct use. The definition of a “personal service establishment” is “a business that provides personal services directly to customers at the site of the business or that receives goods from or returns goods to the customer which have been treated or processed at another location, including, without limitation, travel agencies, dry cleaning and laundry drop-off and pickup stations, tailors, hair stylists, cosmeticians, toning or tanning salons, currency exchanges, postal substations, package delivery and pickup stations, shoe repair shops, interior design studios, dance and martial arts studios, and domestic pet services.” Other policy considerations may include if such uses could be regulated by drafting a use definition that more broadly covers invasive or semi-invasive procedures that require specific certifications and oversight by the Illinois Department of Public Health, if such uses could be regulated as “personal service establishments” by amending the definition to include semi-invasive procedures, thereby recognizing them as services that could be available as part of traditional salons, or if such

uses could be regulated independently of tattoo parlors and “personal service establishments” based on where they may be permitted or any specific use regulations deemed appropriate. There was discussion whether or not establishments that puncture the skin be treated the same as cosmeticians or estheticians and if the definition of a “personal service establishment” already includes tattoo parlors. Chairman Yohanna asked staff to clarify the words “without limitation” in this definition. The Village’s interpretation of the definition is not inclusive, and tattoo parlors are considered a distinct and separate use. Staff presented research of how other neighboring communities regulate tattoo parlors. It is staff’s recommendation the definition should state specifically whether or not tattoo parlors should or should not be included so as to remove any ambiguity. Development Manager Hammel reviewed the Special Use Standards. Chairman Yohanna swore in the Petitioners Damien Kardaras and Kaitlyn Moskowitz. The space was previously occupied by a salon that included aestheticians. An aesthetician is a person who deals with skin issues including fading of scarring, the application of acids in order to peel skin tissue, and puncturing of the skin to remove blemishes. Aestheticians are licensed by the State of Illinois Department of Public Health and require yearly training and certification. Ms. Moskowitz stated the difference between aestheticians and tattoo parlors is aestheticians sanitize their equipment where tattoo parlors use disposable equipment. Most body art establishments utilize an all disposable type of system, further eliminating the chance for contamination.
Chairman Yohanna announced the discussion will include Case #PC-20-19 as this case is dependent upon approval of the Text Amendment. Development Manager Hammel stated the existing facility would be used largely as is and operational characteristics of the proposed use are similar to other uses permitted in this area. Public comment consisted of one call from a neighbor.
Chairman Yohanna asked if there was anyone from the audience who would like to address the Plan Commission. Chairman Yohanna swore in the witnesses. Reverend and Mrs. Samkutty, 3938 West Fitch Avenue, expressed their concerns about a tattoo parlor located in Lincolnwood. Village Trustee Georjean Hlepas Nickell spoke to clarify the statement from Mr. Kardaris that there was unanimous approval from the Committee of the Whole. The consensus was to direct the issue of tattoo parlors to the Plan Commission for discussion. Furthermore, there was no decision made by the Committee of the Whole for this specific request. Development Manager Hammel recommended that, based on the discussion among the Plan Commission, the “personal service establishment” definition in Section 2.02 could be amended to include the words “dermal pigmentation establishment”. Chairman Yohanna believes the inclusion “without limitation” means no personal service establishments should be excluded.

Chairman Yohanna asked if there was anyone from the audience who would like to address the Plan Commission. Let the record state no one came forward. With no further discussion, Chairman Yohanna requested a motion. Motion to recommend approval of a Zoning Code Text Amendment to include “dermal pigmentation establishments, generally to include tattoo parlors, microblading services, and other similar activities, in the definition of “personal service establishments” and to keep the prohibition of tattoo parlors in the B-1 Traditional Business Zoning District, Business/Residential Transition Overlay District, was made by Commissioner Jakubowski and seconded by Commissioner Novoselsky. Case #PC-19-19 will be heard at the November 19, 2019 meeting of the Village Board. Aye: Jakubowski, Novoselsky, Auerbach, Kohn, and Yohanna Nay: None Motion Approved: 5-0 Motion to recommend approval for a Special Use to operate a tattoo parlor at 3940-46 West Touhy Avenue was made by Commissioner Jakubowski and seconded by Commissioner Novoselsky. Commissioner Jakubowski reviewed the Standards for Granting Special Uses. Case #PC-20-19 will be heard at the November 19, 2019 meeting of the Village Board. Aye: Jakubowski, Novoselsky, Auerbach, Kohn, and Yohanna Nay: None Motion Approved: 5-0
Plan Commission Staff Report Case # PC-19-19
November 6, 2019 Subject: Request for a Text Amendment Related to the Permissibility of Tattoo Parlors in the B-1, B-2, B-3, and M-B Zoning Districts
Petitioner: Damien C. Kardaras, E.A Notification: Notice was published in the Lincolnwood Review on October 17, 2019. Background Damien C. Kardaras, petitioner, has requested the Village’s consideration of a Zoning Text Amendment to clarify the permissibility of tattoo parlors in the Village. Recently, a Business License application was processed and denied for a tattoo parlor at a property owned by the Petitioner as the property is in the B-2 General Business Zoning District. The application was denied based on the fact that the proposed use was interpreted by staff to be a “tattoo parlor”, and that use is not explicitly permitted as per Table 4.01.1 Permitted and Special Uses in All Zoning District of the Zoning Ordinance. Regulatory Context As stated above, Table 4.01.1 Permitted and Special Uses in All Zoning Districts does not explicitly list “tattoo parlor” in its list of uses. The only instance where “tattoo parlors” are explicitly mentioned in the Zoning Ordinance is in Section 4.07(2)d, where they are specifically listed as a prohibited use in the B-1 Traditional Business zoning district, Business/Residential Transition Overlay. This mentioning of the use, however, does not state that the use is generally permitted in any other zoning district. In reviewing the Business License Application referenced above, staff considered whether “tattoo parlors” fall under the zoning category of a “personal service establishment. That definition reads as follows: “PERSONAL SERVICE ESTABLISHMENT: A business that provides personal services directly to customers at the site of the business or that receives goods from or returns goods to the customer which have been treated or processed at another location, including, without limitation, travel agencies, dry cleaning and laundry drop-off and

2
pickup stations, tailors, hair stylists, cosmeticians, toning or tanning salons, currency exchanges, postal substations, package delivery and pickup stations, shoe repair shops, interior design studios, dance and martial arts studios, and domestic pet services.” Since the definition does not specifically mention tattoo parlors, staff defaulted to the position that a use not explicitly designated as permitted is by default prohibited. Village Board Referral On October 2, 2019, the Village Board discussed this matter and referred it to the Plan Commission. As part of that discussion, the Village Board discussed the following policy questions: What zoning districts are “Tattoo parlor” most appropriate? Trustees suggested that proposed use could be permitted in other areas outside of the B-1 Traditional Business zoning district, Business-Residential Transition Overlay, where it is explicitly prohibited. Trustees requested that the Plan Commission consider which areas of the Village or zoning districts may be most appropriate for allowing this use. Trustees recommended that it be considered a Special Use. Should they be considered a permitted use similar to “personal service establishments”? Staff presented various options for how tattoo parlors could be regulated in the Zoning Ordinance. One of those options is to amend the definition of “personal services establishment” to specifically include tattoo parlors. This approach would allow for the use as follows:
• In the B-1 and B-2 districts, tattoo parlors with a gross floor area of less than 2,000 square feet would be permitted;
• In the B-3 districts, all tattoo parlors, regardless of gross floor area, would be permitted; and
• In the B-1 and B-2 districts, tattoo parlors with a gross floor area greater than 2,000 square feet would require Special Use approval.
The other option presented by staff is to create a new line item in Table 4.01.1 that specifically regulates tattoo parlors in different zoning districts as its own distinct use. Are there any special regulations or considerations that should apply to “tattoo parlors”? During its discussion, the Village Board had several questions related to the operation of a tattoo parlor. The Petitioner provided information related to licensing, inspections, and oversight by the State of Illinois related to regulations aimed at minimizing blood-borne illnesses. Outside of these special licensing requirements and monitoring that all tattoo parlors are subject to, the proposed use was discussed as operating similar to other types of uses considered personal service establishments.

Other Policy Considerations In addition to the input from the Village Board described above, the Plan Commission may consider the following regarding this request. Tattoo parlors in neighboring communities Neighboring communities vary in terms of how they regulate tattoo parlors. For example, the City of Evanston specifically states that tattoo parlors are not included in their definition of “retail services establishment”, but does not specifically state where the use is permitted or prohibited. Skokie allows the use in three of its districts, including its mixed-use districts, and includes regulations that reference Illinois state law. Morton Grove and Park Ridge do not specifically mention tattoo parlors in their zoning codes. Regulating other related uses While the Petitioner’s request specifically relates to tattoo parlors, other similar uses could be accommodated through this text Amendment process. For example, microblading is a semi-permanent cosmetic eyebrow procedure that is less invasive than tattooing, but requires specific certifications and health oversight due to the risk of blood-borne pathogens. The Text Amendment under consideration could address microblading and other such activities in a number of ways, including the following:
• Such uses could be regulated similarly to tattoo parlors by drafting a use definition that more broadly covers invasive or semi-invasive procedures that require specific certifications and oversight by the Illinois Department of Health;
• Such uses could be regulated as personal service establishments by amending that use definition to include semi-invasive procedures, thereby recognizing them as services that could be available as part of traditional salons; or
• Such uses could be regulated independently of tattoo parlors and personal service establishments, if the Plan Commission feels it is appropriate to do so based on where they may be permitted or any specific use regulations that may be deemed appropriate.
Recommended Text Amendment Depending on the opinion of the Plan Commission, staff recommends one of the following Zoning Text Amendments related to tattoo parlors and similar uses:
• If the Plan Commission prefers to regulate tattoo parlors and other similar activities in the same manner as other cosmetics-oriented activities, staff recommends amending the definition of “personal service establishment” in Section 2.02 of the Zoning Ordinance to specifically include “permanent or semi-permanent dermal pigmentation”.
• If the Plan Commission prefers to regulate tattoo parlors and other similar activities separately from personal service establishments but in a consistent manner, staff recommends the following:
o Amend Table 4.01.1 Permitted and Special Uses in All Zoning Districts to include a line item for “dermal pigmentation establishment” and indicate in which districts the use is allowed as a permitted or special use; and
o Amend Section 2.02 to include a definition of “dermal pigmentation establishment” to read “any establishment, except a hospital or other facility operated by a licensed medical practitioner, where the act of
Text Amendment Regarding Tattoo Parlors November 6, 2019
4
puncturing the skin and inserting indelible colors to create permanent or semi-permanent pigmentation or color is performed”.
• If the Plan Commission prefers to regulate tattoo parlors and other similar activities separately from personal service establishments and one another, staff recommends the following:
o Amend Table 4.01.1 Permitted and Special Uses in All Zoning Districts to include new line items for “dermal pigmentation: permanent” and “dermal pigmentation: semi-permanent”, and indicate in which districts each use is allowed as a permitted or special use;
o Amend Section 2.02 to include a definition of “dermal pigmentation establishment: permanent” to read “any establishment, except a hospital or other facility operated by a licensed medical practitioner, where the act of puncturing the skin and inserting indelible colors to create permanent pigmentation or color is performed, often associated with tattoos”; and
o Amend Section 2.02 to include a definition of “dermal pigmentation establishment: semi-permanent” to read “any establishment, except a hospital or other facility operated by a licensed medical practitioner, where the act of puncturing the skin and inserting indelible colors to create semi-permanent pigmentation or color is performed, often associated with hair salons or cosmeticians”.
Requested Action Staff requests that the Plan Commission discuss the policy questions presented in this report, and recommend a Zoning Text Amendment that appropriately regulates dermal pigmentation establishments based on their relationship to personal service establishments and the permanent or semi-permanent nature of the pigmentation.

MEMORANDUM TO: Anne Marie Gaura, Village Manager FROM: Douglas Hammel, AICP, Community Development Manager DATE: October 2, 2019 SUBJECT: Requested Consideration of a Text Amendment Regarding the Permissibility of Tattoo Parlors Background Staff has received a request from Damien Kardaras, Petitioner, to consider a potential Zoning Text Amendment regarding the permissibility of tattoo parlors in the Village. Recently, staff processed and denied a Business License Application for a tattoo parlor at a property owned by the Petitioner. (The property is in the B-2 General Business zoning district.) The application was denied based on the fact that the proposed use was interpreted by staff to be a “tattoo parlor”, and that use is not explicitly permitted as per Table 4.01.1 Permitted and Special Uses in All Zoning Districts of the Zoning Ordinance. Regulatory Context As stated above, Table 4.01.1 Permitted and Special Uses in All Zoning Districts does not explicitly list “tattoo parlor” in its list of uses. The only instance where “tattoo parlors” are explicitly mentioned in the Zoning Ordinance is in Section 4.07(2)d, where they are specifically listed as a prohibited use in the B-1 traditional Business zoning district, Business/Residential Transition Overlay. This mentioning of the use, however, does not state that the use is generally permitted in any other zoning district. In reviewing the Business License Application referenced above, staff considered whether “tattoo parlors” fall under the zoning category of a “personal service establishment. That definition reads as follows: “PERSONAL SERVICE ESTABLISHMENT: A business that provides personal services directly to customers at the site of the business or that receives goods from or returns goods to the customer which have been treated or processed at another location, including, without limitation, travel agencies, dry cleaning and laundry drop-off and pickup stations, tailors, hair stylists, cosmeticians, toning or tanning

salons, currency exchanges, postal substations, package delivery and pickup stations, shoe repair shops, interior design studios, dance and martial arts studios, and domestic pet services.” Since the definition does not specifically mention tattoo parlors, staff defaulted to the position that a use not explicitly designated as permitted is by default prohibited. Policy Questions Staff is seeking policy guidance from the Village Board on the following questions:
• Are “tattoo parlors” an appropriate use in the Village? • If so, in what zoning districts are they most appropriate? • Should they be considered a permitted use similar to “personal service establishments”
(currently permitted in the B-1, B-2 and B-3 zoning districts, with such uses of greater that 2,000 gross floor area requiring Special Use approval in the B-1 and B-2 zoning districts), or should they require Special Use approval in districts in which they are permitted?
• Are there any special regulations or considerations that should apply to “tattoo parlors”?
Financial Impact None. Recommendation Staff is seeking guidance from the Village Board regarding the [policy question presented in this report, and a referral to the Plan Commission regarding the permissibility of tattoo parlors in various zoning districts. Documents Attached

REFERRED TO BOARD: March 18, 2020 AGENDA ITEM NO: 5
ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT: Community Development
SUBJECT: Consideration of a Recommendation by the Plan Commission to Approve a Special Use for a “Dermal Pigmentation Establishment, Permanent” (Tattoo Parlor) at 3940-46 West Touhy Avenue
SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND OF SUBJECT MATTER: Damien Kardaras, Petitioner, seeks approval of a “dermal pigmentation establishment, permanent” (tattoo parlor) at 3940-46 West Touhy Avenue, which was previously leased as a beauty salon and spa. The property is located in the B-2 General Business zoning district.
It should be noted that any action from the Village Board regarding this request is subject to the result of a previous item on the March 18, 2020, Village Board agenda related to a Zoning Text Amendment to clarify the permissibility of this use at the subject property. Depending on the Board’s actions related to that item, the following Board actions related to this Special Use request may be relevant:
Should the Board modify or reject the PlanCommission’s Zoning Text Amendmentrecommendation and choose to regulate “dermal pigmentation establishments, permanent” in a mannerthat prohibits that use at 3940-46 West Touhy Avenue, this Special Use request is no longer relevant and nofurther Board action is necessary since the use would be prohibited; or
Should the Board concur with the Plan Commission’s recommended Zoning Text Amendment and chooseto regulate “dermal pigmentation establishments, permanent” in a manner that would permit the use as aSpecial Use at 3940-46 West Touhy Avenue, it is then requested that the Board consider the PlanCommission’s recommendations related to that request as described in this report.
Village Board Committee of the Whole DiscussionDuring the October 3, 2019, Village Board Committee of the Whole meeting, the Petitioner provided a description of the proposed use. (It is not required that a Special Use seek an opinion of the Board prior to the formal Plan Commission public hearing. However, the Petitioner presented facts about the proposed use at the subject location as part of the Text Amendment referral regarding the proposed use.) He stated that the use would occupy a space formerly used as a salon, so there is minimal impact on the existing building or property. The Petitioner also reiterated that the services and those who provide them are subject to training and certification, as well as oversight from the State of Illinois Department of Public Health. The proposed location would accommodate up to five artists, and appointments would last several hours. The proposed hours of operation would be consistent with what is permitted in the Zoning Ordinance.
Request For Board Action
November 4, 2019 Plan Commission Public HearingThe Plan Commission held a public hearing on this matter during its November 6, 2019 regular meeting. This hearing was held despite the fact that, at that time, the Plan Commission recommended that this use be permitted without Special Use approval in the B-2 zoning district, so long as the gross floor area of the use is less than 2,000 square feet. The Village Attorney advised that the Plan Commission hearing should be held in the event that the Board determines that the Text Amendment be modified to require that a Special Use approval is necessary.
During the public hearing, the Petitioner reiterated the characteristics of the use that were presented to the Village Board on October 3. The Plan Commission then reviewed each of the Special Use standards included in the Zoning Ordinance and found that the proposed use was not in conflict with any of those standards. The Plan Commission unanimously approved a motion recommending approval of the proposed use at the subject property, subject to the action of the Village Board regarding the related Zoning Text Amendment.
November 19, 2019 Village Board MeetingOn November 19, 2019, the Special Use request was continued to a future date to allow for further deliberation regarding the permissibility of the proposed use in the B-2 zoning district.
March 4, 2020 Plan Commission Public HearingOn March 4, 2020, the Plan Commission held a subsequent public hearing related to a Text Amendment that would impact this request. During that hearing, the Plan Commission recommended that “dermal pigmentation establishments, permanent” be permitted as a Special Use in the B-2 zoning district. That recommendation, if enacted by the Board, would make the Plan Commission’s recommendation above relevant as it relates to the approval of a “dermal pigmentation establishment, permanent” as a Special Use at the subject property. During this hearing, it was noted that the Plan Commission did not have to take action regarding the Special Use request, as the previous recommendation of approval is still valid. Therefore, the Special Use request was not discussed.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None
VILLAGE ATTORNEY REVIEW: The Village Attorney provided commentary during the Plan Commission public hearing regarding the relationship between this Special Use request and the recommendation that the Plan Commission had previously made regarding the Zoning Text Amendment.

Excerpt from the November 6, 2019 Plan Commission Regular Meeting
VI. Case #PC-19-19: Zoning Code Text Amendment – Consideration of a Text Amendment to Clarify the Permissibility of Tattoo Parlors in the B-1, B-2, B-3, and M-B Zoning Districts
VII. Case #PC-20-19: 3940 West Touhy Avenue – Special Use request for a Tattoo Parlor at 3940-46 West Touhy Avenue
Chairman Yohanna announced Case #PC-19-19 for consideration of a request by Damien Kardaras, Property Owner at 3940 West Touhy Avenue, to consider a Zoning Code Text Amendment clarifying the permissibility of tattoo parlors in the B-1 Traditional Business, B-2 General Business, B-3 Village Center PD, and M-B Manufacturing and Business Zoning Districts, and Case #PC-20-19 for consideration of a request by Damien Kardaras, Property Owner, to approve a Special Use to allow a tattoo parlor 3940-46 West Touhy Avenue.
Development Manager Hammel provided background on this proposed Text Amendment and whether or not a tattoo parlor would be considered under the definition of a “personal service establishment”. The only instance where tattoo parlors are explicitly mentioned is in Section 4.07(2)d, where they are specifically listed as a prohibited use in the B-1 Traditional Business Zoning District, Business/Residential Transition Overlay. Ben Schuster confirmed that since the definition of a “personal service establishment” does not specifically mention tattoo parlors, it is staff’s belief, since the use is not explicitly designed as permitted, that it would be prohibited by default.
Discussion items include what zoning districts are most appropriate should tattoo parlors be considered a permitted use similar to personal service establishments, or should any special regulations or considerations apply. Another option is to create a new line item in Table 4.01.1 Permitted and Special Uses in All Zoning Districts that specifically regulates tattoo parlors in different zoning districts as its own distinct use. The definition of a “personal service establishment” is “a business that provides personal services directly to customers at the site of the business or that receives goods from or returns goods to the customer which have been treated or processed at another location, including, without limitation, travel agencies, dry cleaning and laundry drop-off and pickup stations, tailors, hair stylists, cosmeticians, toning or tanning salons, currency exchanges, postal substations, package delivery and pickup stations, shoe repair shops, interior design studios, dance and martial arts studios, and domestic pet services.”
Other policy considerations may include if such uses could be regulated by drafting a use definition that more broadly covers invasive or semi-invasive procedures that require specific certifications and oversight by the Illinois Department of Public Health, if such uses could be regulated as “personal service establishments” by amending the definition to include semi-invasive procedures, thereby recognizing them as services that could be available as part of traditional salons, or if such

uses could be regulated independently of tattoo parlors and “personal service establishments” based on where they may be permitted or any specific use regulations deemed appropriate.
There was discussion whether or not establishments that puncture the skin be treated the same as cosmeticians or estheticians and if the definition of a “personal service establishment” already includes tattoo parlors. Chairman Yohanna asked staff to clarify the words “without limitation” in this definition. The Village’s interpretation of the definition is not inclusive, and tattoo parlors are considered a distinct and separate use. Staff presented research of how other neighboring communities regulate tattoo parlors. It is staff’s recommendation the definition should state specifically whether or not tattoo parlors should or should not be included so as to remove any ambiguity. Development Manager Hammel reviewed the Special Use Standards.
Chairman Yohanna swore in the Petitioners Damien Kardaras and Kaitlyn Moskowitz.
The space was previously occupied by a salon that included aestheticians. An aesthetician is a person who deals with skin issues including fading of scarring, the application of acids in order to peel skin tissue, and puncturing of the skin to remove blemishes. Aestheticians are licensed by the State of Illinois Department of Public Health and require yearly training and certification. Ms. Moskowitz stated the difference between aestheticians and tattoo parlors is aestheticians sanitize their equipment where tattoo parlors use disposable equipment. Most body art establishments utilize an all disposable type of system, further eliminating the chance for contamination.
Chairman Yohanna announced the discussion will include Case #PC-20-19 as this case is dependent upon approval of the Text Amendment. Development Manager Hammel stated the existing facility would be used largely as is and operational characteristics of the proposed use are similar to other uses permitted in this area. Public comment consisted of one call from a neighbor.
Chairman Yohanna asked if there was anyone from the audience who would like to address the Plan Commission. Chairman Yohanna swore in the witnesses.
Reverend and Mrs. Samkutty, 3938 West Fitch Avenue, expressed their concerns about a tattoo parlor located in Lincolnwood.
Village Trustee Georjean Hlepas Nickell spoke to clarify the statement from Mr. Kardaris that there was unanimous approval from the Committee of the Whole. The consensus was to direct the issue of tattoo parlors to the Plan Commission for discussion. Furthermore, there was no decision made by the Committee of the Whole for this specific request.
Development Manager Hammel recommended that, based on the discussion among the Plan Commission, the “personal service establishment” definition in Section 2.02 could be amended to include the words “dermal pigmentation establishment”. Chairman Yohanna believes the inclusion “without limitation” means no personal service establishments should be excluded.

Chairman Yohanna asked if there was anyone from the audience who would like to address the Plan Commission. Let the record state no one came forward. With no further discussion, Chairman Yohanna requested a motion.
Motion to recommend approval of a Zoning Code Text Amendment to include “dermal pigmentation establishments, generally to include tattoo parlors, microblading services, and other similar activities, in the definition of “personal service establishments” and to keep the prohibition of tattoo parlors in the B-1 Traditional Business Zoning District, Business/Residential Transition Overlay District, was made by Commissioner Jakubowski and seconded by Commissioner Novoselsky. Case #PC-19-19 will be heard at the November 19, 2019 meeting of the Village Board.

Plan Commission Staff ReportCase # PC-20-19
November 6, 2019
Subject Property:3940-46 West Touhy Avenue
Zoning District: B-2 General Business
Petitioner: Damien C. Kardaras, E.A
Nature of Request: Approval of a Special Use for a tattoo parlor at 3940 West Touhy Avenue.
Notification: Notice was published in the Lincolnwood Review on October 17, Public Hearing Signs were installed at 3940-46 West Touhy Avenue, and mailed legal notices dated October 17, 2019 were provided to properties within 250 Feet.
BackgroundDamien Kardaras, Petitioner, seeks approval of a tattoo parlor at 3940-46 West Touhy Avenue, which was previously leased as a beauty salon and spa. The property is located in the B-2 General Business zoning district. For the purposes of zoning, a tattoo parlor is considered a “dermal pigmentation establishment”.
It should be noted that the permissibility of this use in the B-2 General Business zoning district and other commercial zoning districts is the focus of Case #PC-19-19, which is being heard immediately prior to this case on November 6, 2019. In Case #PC-19-19, if the Plan Commission approves a motion recommending that “dermal pigmentation establishments” be prohibited in the B-2 zoning district, it would be appropriate for the Plan Commission to table this request to December 4, 2019, pending the Village Board’s final approval of the Text Amendment that would enact that prohibition.
During the October 3, 2019, Village Board Committee of the Whole meeting, the Petitioner provided a description of the proposed use. He stated that the use would occupy
3940-46 West Touhy Avenue November 6, 2019

a space formerly used as a salon, so there is minimal impact on the existing building or property. The Petitioner also reiterated that the services and those who provide them are subject to training and certification, as well as oversight from the State of Illinois Department of Health. The proposed location would accommodate up to five artists, and appointments would last several hours. The proposed hours of operation would be consistent with what is permitted in the Zoning Ordinance.
ConsiderationsThe Plan Commission may consider the following when discussing the appropriateness of the requested approval:
Pending Zoning Text AmendmentAs previously noted, the permissibility of the proposed use at the subject property is subject to a Zoning Text Amendment. At the time of drafting of this report, it is assumed that the proposed use, if permitted in the B-2 zoning district, would require Special Use approval. If the Plan Commission approves a Text Amendment recommendation to the contrary, this request will no longer be relevant.
Physical Impacts to the Subject PropertyThe Petitioner has stated to staff that the existing property can be used largely as-is. As a result, the petitioner anticipates little to no physical impacts to the subject property or to any surrounding properties. Staff presumes that any modifications that would be done to the property would be compliant with all zoning requirements, as no Variations are being sought as part of this request.
Operational Characteristics of the Proposed UseAccording to the Petitioner, the subject property can accommodate five artist stations. Based on this capacity and the nature of how appointments are scheduled, staff does not anticipate any parking or operational impacts above and beyond what would exist if the property hosted other uses permitted in the B-2 zoning district.
Public InputStaff has received no public input regarding this matter.
Requested ActionThe Petitioner seeks approval of a Special Use for the operation of a dermal pigmentation establishment at 3940-46 West Touhy Avenue, pending Village Board approval of a Zoning Text Amendment that would make such a use permitted as a special use in the B-2 Business District (Case #PC-19-19).
