Purpose of the Setback Area
|
|
All streets, except as below
|
25 feet
|
For streets carrying moderate to high regional and local traffic,
a setback area of 25 feet will be required. This will allow commercial
buildings to maintain high visibility from the streets, and also provide
a significant landscaped area along the street.
|
|
Exceptions:
| ||
|
LaGrange Road
|
35 feet
|
LaGrange Road is proposed to be widened to a six lane arterial
with a landscaped median. A larger setback area is being proposed
for this street to distinguish it from other arterials. The wider
setback will allow substantial landscaping that will add a sense of
scale, safety and enclosure to this high speed corridor, and help
create a unique look for the street.
|
|
147th Street
|
15 feet
|
For pedestrian oriented streets that also carry moderate local
traffic, a setback area of 15 feet is required. This will encourage
building entrances to connect directly to the sidewalk, while allowing
landscaping with low plantings along the street.

A.
Purpose. The BIZ General Business district is established to provide
a location for higher-volume and higher intensity commercial uses
than the RSB district, including establishments involving heavy equipment,
and the processing and distribution of goods, which provide employment
and revenues for the Village. Due to the higher volume of these uses,
and the automobile and truck traffic they typically generate, it is
intended that the BIZ District be located only along major and minor
collectors and arterials in order to ensure that the traffic generated
by such uses does not adversely impact nearby residential neighborhoods.
Recognizing the impacts such uses may have on adjacent residential
areas and the overall character of the Village, the development standards
for the BIZ District are designed to buffer the BIZ District from
nearby residential properties and to maintain the general appearance
of major thoroughfares through the Village.
B.
Permitted Uses. The following uses may be established as permitted uses in the BIZ District in buildings up to 50,000 square feet unless otherwise limited below, in accordance with the procedures established in Sections 5-101 through 5-104:

Purpose of the Setback Area
|
|
All streets, except as below
|
25 feet
|
For streets carrying moderate to high regional and local traffic,
a setback area of 25 feet will be required. This will allow commercial
buildings to maintain high visibility from the streets, and also provide

|
LaGrange Road is proposed to be widened to a six lane arterial
with a landscaped median. This setback area will distinguish it from
other arterials as the main commercial area of the Village. The setback
will allow landscaping that will add a sense of scale, safety and
enclosure to the corridor, and help create a unique look for the street.
[Ord. 4996, 6-15-2015] |
|
147th Street
|
15 feet
|

Vision
|
|
The Old Orland Historic District is Orland Park's oldest neighborhood
and the historic heart of the Village. It has a picturesque turn-of-the-century
collection of small shops, historic churches and attractive houses.
The Village Center, McGinnis Slough, Humphrey Woods and the train
station are within close walking distance. To ensure that Old Orland
retains its unique character and special sense of place, the Village
offers the following vision for the area:
|
|
New development will respect the established character
of this historic neighborhood - narrow tree lined streets, small walkable
blocks, buildings on small lots, and gardens and outdoor spaces for
people to enjoy. Contributing buildings will be preserved for future
generations. Historic churches, museums and other civic buildings
will continue to be places where the community comes to gather, learn
and celebrate. The area will attract small businesses and unique local
stores, and also be a great place to live. Trails will connect the
area to woods and forest nearby.

List of Contributing Structures with Photos
| |
|
1.
|
Orland Park School, 9960 West 143rd Street. The center two-story
brick portion of the school was built in 1922 and the gymnasium to
the west was added in 1940. The distinctive stone walls of the gymnasium
are made of Joliet limestone. This is the most substantial of buildings
in the Old Orland area.
|
|
2.
|
Former Christ Lutheran Church, 9999 West 143rd Street. Erected
in 1898, this simple wood frame building is typical of many Gothic
Revival rural churches of the period. It has not been altered significantly.
The small building south of the church was built in 1922 as a school
house.
|
|
3.
|
Former Residence, 9953 West 143rd Street. This small, simple
frame building was built around 1890. The original materials and building
elements have been unaltered. This is a fine example of a National
style building with Folk Victorian detailing in the district.
|
|
4.
|
Former Residence, 9925 West 143rd Street. This two-story Italianate
structure from the 1880's has some nice decorative elements. Except
for later residing, this building appears to have had no significant
alterations.
|
|
5.
|
Orland Park Library, 9917 West 143rd Street. This commercial
building with Tudor styling was built in 1937 and once served as Orland
Park's first public library.
|
|
6.
|
Orland Park Hotel, 14306-10 Union Avenue. This frame commercial
building was originally the Orland Park Hotel. The ornate Italianate
trim dates to the early 1880's. Although the building has been resided
and the fenestration of the first floor has been rebuilt, it is still
the most ornate early structure in Orland Park.
|
|
7.
|
Loebe Bros. General Store, 14314 Union Avenue. This was the
first general store in Orland Park. The building appears to be a series
of buildings that were added onto each other. Most of them appear
to date from the early 1880's to mid 1890's. The front is particularly
well preserved.
|
|
8.
|
Loebe House, 9952 West 144th Street. This large residence from
about 1895 is an excellent example of the Queen Anne style. The house
shows typical features of Queen Anne houses in the use of bay windows,
patterned shingles along the sides and gables, and a tower to break
the flat wall surfaces.
|
|
9.
|
Twin Towers Sanctuary, 9967 144th Street. Designed by Chicago
architect William Arthur Bennet and constructed in 1898, the twin
octagonal towers make this the most imposing and visible landmark
in Old Orland. This building was substantially renovated by the Old
Orland Heritage Foundation. In 1987, the building was added to the
National Register of Historic Places.
|
|
10.
|
Orland State Bank, 14316 Beacon Avenue. Built in 1910, this
well preserved brick building is a good example of Italianate commercial
buildings once common in the Midwest.
|
|
11.
|
Commercial Emporium, 14320-24 Beacon Avenue. Built approximately
in 1885, this is an unusual combination of Commercial, Italianate
and National building style.
|
|
12.
|
Former Residence, 14330 Beacon Avenue. This well preserved frame
building was likely constructed in the late 1880's or early 1890's.
The wealth of Queen Anne decorations have survived since the house
was built.
|
|
13.
|
Former Residence, 14315 Beacon Avenue. This two story Folk Victorian
building dates back to the 1880's and is typical of many residences
constructed during this period in Old Orland.
|
|
14.
|
Residence, 14339 Beacon Avenue. This single story residence
in the National style was built in 1890. Many of the original building
features have been restored.
|
|
15.
|
Residence, 14420 Second Avenue. Constructed in 1880, this house
is believed to be the first residence built in Orland Park. The front
bay windows and the roof that joins them were later additions at the
turn of the 20th Century. The porch and garage building along Second
Avenue were additions at the turn of the 21st Century.
|
|
16.
|
John Humphrey House, 9830 West 144th Place. This stately two
story Italianate frame residence was built in 1881 by the late Sir
John Humphrey, a prominent early resident of the Orland area and Orland
Park's first Mayor. The interior has been restored with authentic
furnishings and is maintained by the Orland Historical Society. This
building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in
2005.

Historic Architectural Styles in the District
The Old Orland Historic District has a collection of modest
homes in a variety of styles, including National, Folk Victorian,
Commercial and Commercial Italianate, Craftsman, Queen Anne, Gothic
and Tudor Revival. The early buildings of the historic district were
made of wood frame with wood siding and trim. Some later commercial
buildings are of brick. The various architectural styles of buildings
in the Historic District are described with examples below. While
some buildings have elements of many other architectural styles, they
were classified under the predominant style.
|
National (1835-1895)
| |
|
National is the term given to indigenous forms of building construction.
Some refer to National buildings as Vernacular style. Although buildings
continued to be constructed according to the earlier traditional folk
forms, the increased availability of lumber (mill-sawn lumber was
available after 1850) led to some new shape innovations. Folk form,
or vernacular buildings are typically of frame construction and covered
with wood siding. Some may have details taken from high styles such
as Greek Revival or Colonial Revival; others may have later high style
modifications. Some of the many variants of the vernacular identified
in the survey area are:
| |
|
Four-over-Four: A side gable, two story,
center entry house, two rooms deep and two rooms wide.
|
Example: 9830 West 144th Place (top left)
|
|
Gable-Front: During the Greek Revival
movement in the period between 1830 and 1850, the front-gabled shape
was commonly used to echo the pedimented facade of typical Greek temples.
This form was particularly common in New England and its popularity
expanded along the with the expansion of the railroad network and
remained a dominant folk form until well into the 20th century. Part
of its staying power reflected the fact that gable-front houses were
well suited for narrow urban lots, which were found in many rapidly
developing cities.
|
.tiff.png "LD 14438 Second Avenue (left).tiff")
|
|
Examples: 14438 Second Avenue (left), 9953 West 143rd
Street, 14329 Beacon Avenue, 14420 First Avenue and 9856 West 144th
Place
| |
|
Gabled L: This house form also descended
from styled Greek Revival houses and the gable-front form. This variant
shows an additional side-gabled wing added at right angles to the
gable-front plan to give a compound, gable-front-and-wing shape with
uniform roof height. A shed-roofed porch was typically placed within
the L made by the two wings. This form is also commonly known as Gable-Front-and-Wing.
|
|
|
Example: 9833 West 144th Place
| |
|
Hipped: Massed-plan folk house of nearly
square plan are commonly built with hipped or pyramidal roofs. It
may be one or two stories high. Hipped folk houses differ principally
in roof pitch and in the size and placement of porches. Many one story
houses have full or partial integral porches included under the principal
roof.
|
|
|
Examples: 9999 West 143rd Street at West Avenue and
9853 West 144th Place (right)
| |
|
Side Gable: This house form, with a side
gable and massed-plan (more than one room deep) was very popular after
lightweight lumber became widely available by the railroads. Simpler
methods of light roof framing led to these massed-plan houses which
had larger and more flexible interior plans, therefore, eventually
replacing the traditional one room deep Hall-and-Parlor and I-House
forms.
|
.tiff.png "LD 14420 Second Avenue (right).tiff")
|
|
Example: 14420 Second Avenue (right)
| |
|
Upright-and-Wing: This house form is
similar to the Gabled L. It is usually a one and a half to two story
front gable house with a one-to-one and a half story wing at right
angles of lesser height. A porch was often placed in the area formed
by the gable front and wing. Some Upright-and-Wing houses may have
started out as a Front Gable to which a wing was added.
|
|
|
Examples: 9855 West 144th Street and 9976 West 144th
Street (the latter is shown at right)
| |
|
Craftsman (1905-1930)
| |
|
Craftsman was the dominant style for smaller houses built across
the country during the period between 1905 through the mid-1920's.
By the end of the 1920's, the style was fading from popularity and
few were built after 1930. Common characteristics include low-pitched,
gabled or hipped roof with wide, unenclosed eave overhang; exposed
roof rafters; decorative beams or knee braces under gables; porches,
full or partial width, with roof supported by tapered square columns,
often of brick or stone material; dormers often with exposed rafter
ends and knee braces; usually shed or gable roof; windows designed
with a horizontal emphasis.
|
|
|
Examples: 14407 Beacon Avenue (shown at right) and 9955
West 144th Street
| |
|
Commercial Vernacular or Commercial/Storefront (1880-1900)
| |
|
Early vernacular commercial buildings are referred to as Commercial
Vernacular. These buildings are identified by their form, not their
architectural style, although they may have some decorative features
taken from architectural styles, often Italianate or Classical. These
buildings are typically found in main street areas. Common characteristics
include street facades abutting one another and sited at the lot line;
false fronts visible at the roof line of the typically gable roof;
buildings in relative scale with adjacent commercial vernacular buildings;
typical three part facades: storefront, upper stories, and cornice
or parapet; most often of wood with transoms above storefronts, and
decorative cornices.
|
|
|
Examples: 14300 Beacon Avenue, 14320 Beacon Avenue,
14306 Union Avenue (right) and 14314 Union Avenue
| |
|
20th Century Commercial (1900-)
| |
|
Later Commercial Vernacular buildings are referred to as 20th
Century Commercial Style. These buildings are identified by their
form and materials, not their architectural style, although they may
have some decorative features taken from architectural styles. Common
characteristics include facades of brick or stone with contrasting
masonry ornament; street facades abutting one another and sited at
the lot line; buildings in relative scale with adjacent commercial
vernacular buildings.
|
|
|
Examples: 14316 Beacon Avenue (right) and 9875 West
143rd Street
| |
|
Folk Victorian (1870-1910)
| |
|
This style is defined by the presence of Victorian decorative
detailing on simple folk house forms, and generally much less elaborated
than the Victorian styles that they attempt to mimic. The details
are usually of either Italianate or Queen Anne inspiration. The primary
areas for the application of this detailing are the porch and cornice
line. Common characteristics include porches with spindle-work detailing
or flat, jig-saw cut trim; turned balusters used both in porch railings
and in friezes suspended from the porch ceiling; roof-wall junction
may be either boxed or open; simple window surrounds with simple pediment
above.
|
|
|
Examples: 14315 Beacon Avenue, 14330 Beacon Avenue (bottom
right), 14339 Beacon Avenue and 9852 West 144th Place
| |
|
Georgian Revival (1880-1955)
| |
|
The Georgian Revival style is more commonly grouped under the
Colonial Revival style, which includes Georgian, Adam and Dutch. Colonial
Revival refers to the entire rebirth of interest in the early English
and Dutch houses of the Atlantic seaboard. The Georgian and Adam styles
form the backbone of the Revival, with secondary influences from post
medieval English or Dutch Colonial prototypes. The principal areas
of elaboration are entrances, cornices and windows. Common characteristics
include an accentuated front door, normally with a decorative pediment
supported by pilasters, or extended forward and supported by slender
columns to form the entry porch; doors, commonly with overhead fanlights
or sidelights; a facade normally showing symmetrically balanced windows
and center door; windows with double-hung sashes, usually with multi-pane
glazing in one or both sashes, and frequently in adjacent pairs.
|
|
|
Example: 9960 West 143rd Street (left).
| |
|
Gothic Revival (1840-1880)
| |
|
The Gothic Revival style, based on English precedents, was promoted
as an ideal picturesque rural style, suitable for residential use.
The style was loosing popularity for residential designs by the late
1860's, but resurgence during the 1870's occurred when the style was
applied to public and religious buildings. Common characteristics
include a steeply pitched roof, usually with steep cross gables; roofs
often topped with pinnacles; gables, commonly with decorated vergeboards;
wall surfaces extend into a gable without a break; windows commonly
extended into a gable, frequently having pointed-arch shape (Gothic
arch); doors often with pointed-arch and/or heavy hood ornament.
|

|
|
Example: 9999 West 143rd Street (left)
| |
|
Italianate (1840-1885)
| |
|
A popular 19th century style, the Italianate was derived from
the architecture of Italian villas and originated in England at the
start of the Picturesque Movement. This style with its wide overhanging
bracketed eaves was typically found on two and three story buildings.
Often this style included a cupola. Common characteristics include
vertical proportions; wide eaves and intricate cornices; large brackets,
sometimes paired; tall, curved or arched topped windows and doors
with hooded molds; porches, both small entry and full width, of single
story height; paired and single doors, commonly with large-pane glazing
in the door itself.
|
|
|
Examples: 9925 West 143rd Street (left) and 14306 Union
Avenue.
| |
|
Prairie (1900-1925)
| |
|
An American style of architecture that originated with the Prairie
School, popular in the Midwest from about 1900 to 1930. Characteristics
include broad, low-pitched roof, and hipped eaves usually with a very
wide overhang; light colored stucco exterior walls, brick or concrete
block; contrasting wood trim between stories; Sullivanesque ornamentation
such as friezes and/or door surrounds; ribbon windows below roof overhang,
emphasizing the horizontal plane.
|
.tiff.png "LD 9960 W 143rd Street (top right).tiff")
|
|
Example: 9960 West 143rd Street (top right)
| |
|
Queen Anne (1880-1910)
| |
|
The very popular style of the 1880's and 1890's has asymmetrical
shapes characterized by projecting bays and prominent, compound roof
shapes. A one story porch along the front sometimes wraps around the
side. These buildings were clad in a variety of materials and with
multiple textures including patterned shingles. Common characteristics
include an abundance of decoration; varied and rich contrasting materials,
shapes and textures; expansive, encircling porches; turrets or conical
towers; pressed metal bays; irregular roofline with many dormers and
chimneys; some may have half-timbering with windows grouped three
or more.

|
|
Examples: 9952 West 144th Street (sketch at right) and
9967 West 144th Street (middle right)
| |
|
Tudor Revival (1890-1940)
| |
|
A popular romantic revival style from the first half of the
20th century, Tudor Revival was a romantic inspiration based on English
medieval buildings. The style is recognized by the use of a steeply
pitched side gable or hipped roof, with one or more front facing,
asymmetrically placed gables. Common characteristics include walls
of masonry, brick, stucco and half-timbering most commonly used in
a mixture; mullions, transoms, and trim of stone are typical, as are
rounded Tudor arch door openings; tall, narrow windows, double-hung
or casement, often with leaded glass; multiple and overlapping dormers;
multi-colored slate on the roof; massive chimneys, often stone or
stucco with stone ornament.

A.
Purpose. The purpose of the Old Orland Historic District (OOH) is
to retain the commercial and residential character of the original
core of Orland Park. It is also the purpose of this district to encourage
the restoration and preservation of historically and architecturally
significant structures that are an important part of the Village's
heritage. To maintain the historic, semi-residential character of
the district, commercial development is limited to certain streets:
143rd Street, Beacon Avenue between 143rd Street and 144th Place,
Union Avenue between 143rd Street and Brook Avenue, and in the existing
commercial portion of West Avenue between 143rd Street and 143rd Place.
Uses within this area are therefore restricted to small retail businesses,
offices and residential dwellings, all of which must be compatible
in scale and ambiance with the district (see Map 1). The Certificate
of Appropriateness review process was designed to ensure all development
in the district meets these objectives.
B.
Uses.
1.
The following uses may be established in the OOH District in accordance with the procedures and standards set forth in Sections 5-101 through 5-104 for permitted uses and Section 5-105 for special uses in the Land Development Code. Although certain uses are listed as "permitted uses" within the district, a Certificate of Appropriateness must still be obtained, as described later in this section, and any other required development approval from the Village prior to construction, alteration or demolition. "Special Uses" must obtain a special use permit as well as any other required development approvals from the Village.
2.
The following applies to redevelopment in the Old Orland Historic
District:
a.
In the non-commercial areas, existing residential buildings
cannot be converted to mixed use buildings, or be used for office
or commercial uses;
b.
In the commercial areas, mixed use and single use commercial/office
buildings can replace existing residential buildings via a tear-down
when a parcel is redeveloped, but require a special use permit.
c.
In the commercial areas, mixed use and single use commercial/office
uses are permitted in existing residential buildings as a permitted
use.

wall should be provided to separate the sidewalk from the parking
area.
3.
Parking Requirements. All parking regulations apply as outlined in
Section 6-306 of the Land Development Code. If there is insufficient
area for Historic District businesses in new or existing buildings
to provide required parking on-site, parking opportunities demonstrated
to exist either on-street or via shared parking nearby may be applied
to meet the requirement.
[Ord. 4738, 6-18-2012]
4.
Loading. All loading regulations apply as outlined in Section 6-306
of the Land Development Code. For businesses in the Historic District
that do not have sufficient land area on site to provide a designated
loading space, loading may occur from a side street, from an alleyway
or in a parking lot drive aisle, provided loading activities do not
disrupt traffic flow for other uses.
5.
Landscaping. Buffer landscaping between like uses and between commercial
uses and the street is not required in the Old Orland Historic District.
All other landscaping regulations apply as outlined in Section 6-305
of the Land Development Code. If there is insufficient area to provide
required landscaping on-site, petitioners are encouraged to provide
landscape improvements in areas visible from the street, including
movable benches, decorative planter boxes, hanging baskets, et cetera.
It is the responsibility of the property owner to maintain these improvements.
6.
Tree Preservation. Tree preservation requirements outlined in Section
6-305 Landscape and Tree Preservation of the Land Development Code
for preserving and/or removing trees four inches in caliper and above
apply to the OOH District. All healthy mature trees that contribute
to the character of the Historic District should be maintained.
[Amended by Ord. 5126, 9-19-2016]
7.
Fences. For front yards and yards abutting a street, fences shall
not exceed a height of four feet, must be 50% open, and be of picket
construction. All other fences shall not exceed a height of five feet.
Chain link fences are not permitted. Fences on property with contributing
structures shall be of wood construction. Fencing on property with
non-contributing structures or new construction can be vinyl.
[Ord. 4738, 6-18-2012]
8.
Garages. New construction should continue the tradition of locating
the garage at the rear of the lot, behind the principal building.
Garages should be compatible in design, materials and roof form of
the principal building. The maximum height permitted for a garage
is 16 feet to the top of the structure. Additional height may be permitted
for a specific roof form that reflects the principal building. Attached
garages are allowed only on corner lots and only when mitigating for
natural features such as topography or heritage trees. No living space
is allowed above an attached garage. Attached garages must be built
to a similar scale as detached garages, located at the rear of the
principal building and maintain ornamental overhead doors when facing
the right-of-way. Garages may have a maximum of two overhead doors
or, when located on corner lots, three overhead doors and they must
be ornamental doors when facing the right-of-way.
[Amended by Ord. 4839, 9-16-2013]
E.
Signage. Signs in the OOH District shall be compatible with the architecture,
scale and design of the building of which they are a part. Signs should
not obscure or overwhelm architectural details. Building directories
are encouraged for multi-tenanted buildings. All signs shall conform
to the requirements listed in Section 6-307 (Signs).
[Amended by Ord. 5476, 1-20-2020]
F.
Architectural Design Standards.
1.
Applicability. There are 16 buildings designated as "Contributing
Structures" in Old Orland, two of which are listed on the National
Register of Historic Places. These buildings are identified in Map
1 of this section. (While not in the District, Building 1 is considered
a contributing structure and should be protected). Remaining buildings
in the OOH District are classified as "Non-Contributing" or "New Construction".
a.
Buildings on the National Register of Historic Places. Buildings
listed on the National Register of Historic Places must comply with
the United States Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation
and design standards outlined in this section to maintain and improve
the accuracy and integrity of the interior and exterior of the building.
These are eligible for matching funds from the Facade Improvement
Program.
b.
All Contributing Structures and Additions to Contributing Structures.
All Contributing structures and additions to Contributing Structures
must comply with the Design Standards outlined in this section in
order to maintain and improve the accuracy and integrity of the exterior
of the building only. These are eligible for matching funds from the
Facade Improvement Program.
c.
All Non-Contributing Structures, Additions to Non-Contributing
Structures and New Construction. All Non-Contributing Structures,
additions to Non-Contributing Structures and New Construction are
strongly encouraged to follow the Design Standards outlined in this
section. If the Design Standards are met, these structures may be
eligible for Low Interest Loans and matching funds from the Facade
Improvement Program.
2.
General Design Standards. The following are based both on the United
States Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation and
on local preservation objectives for the OOH District. These standards
will be used to evaluate applications for Certificates of Appropriateness.
a.
Compatible Use With Minimal Alterations. Every reasonable effort
shall be made to use a property for its originally intended purpose
or to provide a compatible use for a property which requires minimal
alteration of the building, structure, or site and its environment.
b.
Relationship to Streets and Open Spaces. The unique character
of streets and open spaces in the Historic District shall be retained
and preserved. The removal of historic materials or alterations of
features and spaces that characterize a property and contribute to
the character of the Historic District should be avoided.
c.
Distinctive Architectural Features. The distinguishing original
qualities or character of the District including buildings, structures
or sites and their environment shall not be destroyed. Avoid the removal
or alteration of any historic material or distinctive architectural
features. Distinctive stylistic features or examples of skilled craftsmanship
which characterize a building, structure or site shall be preserved.
d.
Historic Appropriateness. All buildings, structures and sites
shall be recognized as products of their own time. Avoid alterations
that have no historical basis and which seek to create an earlier
appearance.
e.
Past Alterations. Changes that have taken place in the course
of time are evidence of the history and development of a building,
structure or site and its environment. These changes may have acquired
significance in their own right, and this significance shall be recognized
and respected.
f.
Deteriorated Architectural Features. These shall be repaired
rather than replaced. If the severity of deterioration requires replacement,
new material should match the historic material being replaced in
composition, design, color, texture and other visual qualities. Repair
or replacement of missing architectural features should be based on
accurate duplications of features, substantiated by historic, physical
or pictorial evidence than on conjectural designs or availability
or architectural elements on other buildings or structures.
g.
Chemical of Physical Treatment. Chemical or physical treatment,
such as sandblasting, that cause damage to historic materials shall
not be used. Surface cleaning or structures, if appropriate, shall
be undertaken using the gentlest means possible.
h.
Archaeological Resources. Every reasonable effort shall be made
to protect and preserve archaeological resources affected by or adjacent
to any project.
i.
Contemporary Design. Contemporary design for alterations and
additions to existing buildings and construction of new buildings
within the District shall not be discouraged when such alterations
and new construction do not destroy significant historical, architectural
or cultural material, and such design is compatible with the size,
scale, color, material, and character of the property and the District.
j.
Structural Integrity. Wherever possible, new additions or alterations
to structures shall be done in such a manner that if such additions
or alterations were to be removed in the future, the essential form
and integrity of the structure would be unimpaired.
k.
Replacement of Existing Features. Architectural elements shall
be repaired with original materials rather than replaced. Replacement
should be considered only when features have severely deteriorated.
New material should match the existing material. If the material being
replaced is not original to the structure, original materials shall
be used to improve the overall integrity of the structure.
l.
Additions and New Construction. Appropriate locations of an
addition are at the rear or sides of the building. These should be
connected to the property in a way that does not alter, obscure, damage,
or destroy any significant features, and has a minimal impact on the
exterior walls. Additions should complement the original building
in size, scale, massing and design. These should not be taller or
wider than the original building. Design features including the roof
shape, materials, color, location of windows and doors, cornice heights
et cetera should be consistent with the original building.
New construction should be compatible with the architectural
styles of the District. Replication of a specific architectural style
can create a false historic appearance and should be avoided. Contemporary
designs are acceptable when compatible in size, scale, color, material,
and character of the District.
Building additions and new construction are encouraged to be
compatible with the proportions predominant in the District: rectangular,
vertically oriented massing with gable ends facing the street.
3.
Specific Design Standards.
a.
Windows.
(1)
Replacement Windows. Use wood windows, specifically on the front
facades. Metal windows can be used for secondary facades if they are
painted to match wood windows. Retain the location and size of original
window openings. Retain or simplify divisions of glass, and retain
transoms.
(2)
New Windows. Simple double-hung wood windows with vertical proportions
are appropriate for the District. Wood is preferred; if metal is used,
it should be painted to match any existing windows.
(3)
Storm Windows and/or Screens. Painted wood is preferred. Painted
metal may be used for additions. The division in the storm window
should align with the divisions of the window.
(4)
Shutters. Avoid using shutters unless they were original to
the building. If shutters are used, they should be half the width
of the window opening and be hinged rather than screwed to the siding.
(5)
Sashes. Wood sashes are preferred. Clad wood and painted metal
may be used for additions. Sash can have either single light or multiple
divided lights. Storm windows and screens of wood or painted metal
with divisions in alignment of the divisions of the window.
(6)
Not Permitted.
(A)
Dividing each sash into more than six lights;
(B)
Synthetic trim to cover existing trim and synthetic
siding which conceals the original wood window frame;
(C)
Glass block windows;
(D)
Horizontally proportioned windows;
(E)
Snap-in-muntins and applied muntins;
(F)
High-gloss metal finishes;
(G)
Unique contemporary shapes or casements;
(H)
Mirrored, reflective or tinted glass.
(7)
Predominant Style.
(A)
Wood, double hung sash windows, with both single
and multiple divided lights are common in the historic buildings.
The most common light configuration is a simple one-over-one.
(B)
Some buildings have ornamental Queen Anne windows
with large lower sash and leaded or stained glass fixed sash above.
Queen Anne windows have been identified in Folk Victorian, Queen Anne
and National style houses.
|
b.
Exterior Doors.
(1)
Replacement Doors. Use wood doors, specifically on the front
facades. Metal doors can be used for secondary facades if they are
painted to match wood doors.
(2)
New Doors. Doors should be wood with the appropriate paneling
to the architectural style with transoms or lights in the door as
appropriate.
(3)
Storm Doors or Screen Doors. Should be wood with full size screen
or glass, or paneled lower half with screen or rectangular glass light
above. Any metal should be painted.
(4)
Not Permitted.
(5)
Predominant Style.
(A)
Typically the historic houses in the District had
wood doors of four or five panels.
(B)
Large glass lights in doors are not typical in
the District.
(C)
There are examples of wood paneled doors with vertically
oriented, divided lights in the upper panels of the door.
(D)
Sidelights on residential buildings are not typical
for the District but are seen on a few commercial buildings.
(E)
Transoms above front doors are seen throughout
the District, although many have been obscured with plywood or siding.
|
c.
Porches and Door Overhangs. Wood porches and door overhangs
are very common in the District. These add greatly to the pedestrian
scale and character of the street facades, and are strongly encouraged
for all new construction.
(1)
Existing Porches and Overhangs. Existing porches and overhangs
should be maintained. If replacement is necessary, wood components
and wood siding closely matching the original style should be used.
(2)
New Porches and Door Overhangs. New porches and over hangs are
encouraged for all additions and new buildings. Wood components and
wood siding are appropriate and should be painted. Porches on additions
or new construction are encouraged to be open and of a compatible
scale and material. If new porches are enclosed, these should be screened
or have double-hung windows. Front door overhangs with wall braces
are appropriate.
(3)
Not Permitted.
(A)
Enclosing an existing porch detracts from the character
of the main facades. Original porches have to remain open and should
not be enclosed;
(B)
Removing or concealing distinctive porch features
when installing screens or windows;
(C)
Re-cladding porches with synthetic siding;
(D)
Eliminating significant detailing on porches;
(E)
Two story porches or overhangs, mansard roof;
(F)
Elements, and overhangs without vertical supports.
(4)
Predominant Style.
(A)
Porches and door overhangs are typical of many
of the existing buildings in the District.
(B)
Existing porches are of wood, with stone or brick
piers or foundations.
(C)
Detailing for the porches vary with architectural
style.
(D)
Front door overhangs are also seen in the District,
which are typically supported by wall braces.
|
d.
e.
Roofs, Skylights, Gutters and Chimneys. Replacement roofing,
gutters and chimneys should match the historic in the existing building
in material and configuration, or should be compatible.
(1)
Roofs, Skylights, Gutters and Chimneys. New or replacement roofs
of wood or asphalt shingles are appropriate. Wood shingles should
be machine cut. Asphalt shingles should be simple, flat and smooth,
and in an appropriate color. Painted metal roofs in terne coated steel
is allowed.
(A)
Skylights are not permitted on Contributing Structures
as they are historically inappropriate. Skylights are acceptable on
non-contributing structures provided that these have the appropriate
scale; however, skylights with convex or bubble shapes, or other unusual
contemporary shapes should be avoided.
(B)
Gutters were typically half round in profile. Gutters
should be of a compatible profile; compatible material includes painted
metal.
(C)
For new or replacement chimneys, brick chimneys
with a simple profile should be used. Brick and original profiles
should be matched if possible for replacements.
(2)
Not Permitted.
(A)
For new and replacement roofs, the following should
be avoided: hand split wood shakes, asphalt shingles with rough, thick
texture made to replicate shakes, clay or synthetic tile, slate, synthetic
slate and asphalt shingles in the color of new wood.
(B)
Existing brick chimneys should not be clad in siding
or stucco.
(3)
Predominant Style.
f.
Siding, Brick and Trim.
Narrow wood clapboard siding with painted wood trim is appropriate
for the District. Brick is not typical and can be found in some commercial
buildings. Original siding should be uncovered where possible and
restored.
For replacements or additions, materials for siding, brick and
trim should match and be compatible in character, color and texture
with the original.
(1)
Siding. Narrow wood clapboard siding with four-inch exposure
or wide wood clapboard siding with eight-inch exposure is appropriate
for the District. Light paint colors should be used for the siding
that will not conceal the shadow lines of the narrow clapboards and
the decorative trim.
[Amended by Ord. 4839, 9-16-2013]
(2)
Brick. There are some examples of contributing commercial buildings
with brick facades. These brick buildings often have sills, lintels
and upper level ornament of brick or limestone. Brick should be used
in limited amounts for replacement or additions to masonry buildings.
Where used, this should match the original in size, texture, color
and variation.
(3)
Trim. Painted wood trim is preferred, with simple flat trim
for doors and windows.
(4)
Not Permitted.
(A)
Synthetic sidings on Contributing Structures as
they are not historically appropriate. For non-contributing structures,
synthetic siding such as aluminum or vinyl are discouraged;
(B)
Re-pointing with mortar matched to the brick rather
than to the original mortar;
(C)
Applying mortar beyond the joints onto the face
of the brick or stone itself;
(D)
Stucco facades;
(E)
Concealing decorative trim with synthetic siding
and trim;
(F)
Removing original decorative trim elements or replacing
them with profiles of another style;
(G)
Detailing with trim inappropriate to the historic
style of the building;
(H)
Sandblasting or abrasive treatments;
(I)
Stone facing materials and concrete blocks.
(5)
Predominant Style.
(A)
The wood frame buildings were typically sided with
horizontal wood clapboard.
(B)
Many of these buildings are now sided with composition
board, asbestos board, rough sawn plywood siding, or synthetic (aluminum
or vinyl) siding.
(C)
Wood trim is generally found on the cornices, porches,
door and window frames.
(D)
Except for early 20th Century commercial buildings,
brick facades are not typical of most of the older buildings in the
District.
g.
Storefronts.
Storefronts are a significant architectural feature of historic
commercial buildings and their preservation is an important strategy
for retaining and preserving the character of commercial buildings
in the District.
General design guidelines for windows, doors, roofs, chimneys,
gutters, porches, materials et cetera as outlined in previous sections
will apply to storefront designs in the District. The following specific
guidelines for storefronts will also apply.
(1)
All Storefronts. All storefronts should be compatible in design,
size, scale, color, material and character of the historic elements
of each building. Changes should reflect the building's architecture
based on evidence of the original. Important elements of storefronts
include: display windows and transoms, entrance and awning.
(2)
For a Commercial Building with an Existing Storefront. For a
storefront that is original or typical of the time period, it should
be retained and restored if needed. For a storefront that is non-original
or non-typical of the time period, rehabilitation is recommended.
If no historic evidence exists, storefront features shall be compatible
with other original storefronts in the District.
(3)
For New Commercial Buildings with Storefronts. Incorporate a
design compatible with the size and scale of the existing storefronts.
(4)
For Conversions from Residential to Commercial. The original
windows should be retained without modifying openings. All work on
these buildings should refer to the design guidelines in this section.
(5)
Storefront Windows and Entrances. Entrances should be located
based on historic precedent and recessed from the storefront. Storefront
windows should be of clear and transparent glass. If a lower ceiling
is desired in the interior, the dropped ceiling should maintain at
least a twenty-four-inch setback from the facade of the storefront
to maintain the visual integrity of the display windows and transoms.
(6)
Not Permitted.
(A)
Removal of original storefronts;
(B)
Introduction of contemporary storefronts with large
expanses of glass, glass block, or high-gloss metal frames.
(C)
Imitations of earlier historical styles with mansard
roofs, wood shakes, inoperable shutters, coach lanterns or Colonial
type multiple lights.
(D)
Construction that includes interior dropped ceilings
that block the storefront windows or door.
|
(7)
Predominant Style.
(A)
The Old Orland Historic District has three commercial
building types: Commercial Vernacular or Storefront, 20th Century
Commercial, and residential buildings converted to commercial uses.
(B)
The Storefront type is characterized by a false
front facade, which is a front wall that extends above the roof and/or
beyond the sides of the building to create a more imposing facade.
The typically gabled roof can be seen behind the cornice of the false
front. In the District, these buildings are of wood. The facades are
sited at the lot line and are composed of a storefront at ground level,
and an upper story that is topped with a cornice or parapet. These
buildings often have decorative features in the Italianate style.
|
|
20th Century Commercial buildings are also defined by
their form but are typically masonry with storefront at ground level
and an upper story that is topped with a cornice. These buildings
may also have decorative features of other architectural styles. In
the District, these buildings are of brick with stone decorative details
and have a flat roof typically hidden behind a low parapet wall.
Commercial buildings converted from an original residential
use should respect the design, character and scale of the original
buildings.

G.
Review Process for Certificate of Appropriateness.
The Certificate of Appropriateness review process is designed to protect historic properties from insensitive or non-conforming alterations and to ensure new buildings are compatible in design with older buildings in the Old Orland Historic District. The process for Certificates of Appropriateness is outlined in Section 5-101 of the Land Development Code (5-101C and D) and shall follow the requirements outlined in Section 5-110 of the Land Development Code pertaining to Landmarks. [Ord. 5312, 7-16-2018]
The tables below outline the Certificate of Appropriateness
review and approval process for the three categories of buildings
in the OOH District and landmarks and are followed by descriptions
of the terms used. Once the required review and approval is obtained,
building permits must be procured from the Village before the proposed
work begins.

A.
Purpose. The COR Mixed Use District is established to encourage and
promote a mix of commercial, office and residential uses and to create
a Village core. It is the purpose of this district to permit the clustering
of relatively dense development in an effort to create an integrated
setting and reduce automobile dependency. The district therefore provides
for flexibility in the design of pedestrian-oriented development and
in the location of employment and retail centers in proximity to higher
density housing. The district is also designed to provide for the
development of a variety of retail and commercial services that may
change over time in response to market conditions. The location and
design of such development is intended to provide efficiently located
and diverse shopping and service opportunities.
B.
Permitted Uses. The following uses may be established as permitted uses in the COR Mixed Use District in buildings up to 50,000 square feet unless otherwise limited below in accordance with the procedures set forth in Sections 5-101 through 5-104, provided that all other applicable regulations are met:

Non-residential and mixed use buildings (commercial and residential
uses) Setbacks between the street right-of-way and the building facade
facing the street shall follow the minimum requirements set in Table
6-210. F.1.b(A) (below). The setback width is related to the width

|
Purpose of the Setback Area
|
|
All streets, except as below
|
25 feet
|
For streets carrying moderate to high regional and local traffic,
a setback area of 25 feet will be required. This will allow commercial
buildings to maintain high visibility from the streets, and also provide
a significant landscaped area along the street.
|
|
Exceptions:
| ||
|
LaGrange Road
|
25 feet
|
LaGrange Road is proposed to be widened to a six lane arterial
with a landscaped median. This setback area will distinguish it from
other arterials as the main commercial area of the Village. The setback
will allow landscaping that will add a sense of scale, safety and
enclosure to the corridor, and help create a unique look for the street.
[Ord. 4996, 6-15-2015] |
|
147th Street
|
15 feet
|
For pedestrian oriented streets that also carry moderate local
traffic, a setback area of 15 feet is required. This will encourage
building entrances to connect directly to the sidewalk, while allowing
landscaping with low plantings along the street.

West Avenue
| ||
|
144th Place
| ||
|

|
These special pedestrian oriented streets shall be defined by
buildings with active street fronts, multiple entrances and well articulated
street facades, and by parkway trees along the sidewalk. Buildings
shall be allowed to be placed at the lot line or set back up to 15
feet to strengthen the pedestrian character of the street.

Zoning District Map. The standards of this district are designed to
ensure that such uses are developed in a manner that is compatible
with the use and enjoyment of nearby properties, and to minimize potential
nuisances or damage to the environment. In addition, this district
is intended to accommodate a variety of uses, whereby the developer
can establish different combinations of uses on a site over time,
as the market dictates, as long as all uses and development conform
to the standards established by the Village to protect adjacent land
uses and the natural environment.

A.
Purpose and Vision.
The mayor and the Village Board envision the Village Center
District to be the Downtown and Civic Core of Orland Park. From the
Main Street Triangle area around the 142nd Street train station to
the Village Center Complex along Ravinia Avenue, this unique district
offers great potential to create mixed use walkable neighborhoods
in the heart of the Village. To ensure that the district will create
a unique pedestrian scale and civic character, the Village offers
the following vision for the area:
The VCD District will offer a diverse mix of uses along
intimate pedestrian scaled streets and buildings within compact, walkable
blocks. Small-scale commercial uses will serve the district, and more
residents will be attracted to live within walking distance of the
142nd Street train station. A fine grid of streets will connect the
Village Center, the Downtown area around the train station, the Orland
Crossing area, the Public Library, McGinnis Slough, Humphrey Woods,
and the Old Orland Historic District. New development on infill or
vacant sites will strengthen the intimate character of the area, and
civic buildings and open spaces will continue to be key focal points
in the district.
|
|
Civic uses like the Metra Station, Library and Village Hall
are the focal points of the Village Center District.
|
|

B.
Development Principles. Land Development Codes for the Village Center
District are based on the following principles:
1.
Establish the Village Center District as the Downtown for the Village
by enhancing the prominence and setting of civic structures and public
open spaces;
2.
Continue the tradition established by the Village Center Complex
by encouraging buildings with strong architectural identities;
3.
Promote mixed-use buildings with ground floor retail and office or
residential uses above;
4.
Create attractive street facades with street level uses scaled and
oriented toward pedestrians;
5.
Create smaller walkable blocks that allow safe and attractive pedestrian
connections through the district;
6.
Create open space amenities as focal points of developments;
7.
Encourage continuous building frontage along the streets to reduce
the visual impacts of parking lots;
8.
Place parking lots at the rear of buildings away from pedestrian
oriented streets;
9.
Encourage alternative parking options, including on-street parking,
shared parking, parking below buildings, underground parking and parking
structures;
10.
Encourage buildings to provide dual entrances, allowing patrons
to enter both from the sidewalk along the street and the parking area
at the rear or side of buildings;
11.
Promote sustainable and environmentally responsible design;
A wide variety of uses in a small scale setting is one of the
major assets of the Village Center District.

D.
Bulk Requirements.
1.
Lot Coverage. No more than 75% of the area of the parcel may be covered with building, pavement and storm water storage, leaving at least 25% of total parcel area in green space. (See Section 2-102 Definitions "Green Space"). Impervious coverage will be allowed up to 80% when Best Management Practices (BMP) such as porous pavements and green roofs are used. Up to 40% of the BMPs will be considered pervious, provided that the design standards outlined in the code for BMPs are met.
[Ord. 4574, 7-6-2010]
2.
Lot Area and Lot Width. For detached dwelling units, minimum lot
area shall be 2,500 square feet, with a minimum lot width of 25 feet
and a maximum lot width of 50 feet. For commercial uses, the minimum
lot area shall be 10,000 square feet, with a minimum lot width of
80 feet.
3.
Height. No building may exceed three stories, up to a maximum height
of 40 feet, with the following exceptions:
a.
Building footprints within 600 feet of the 142nd Street train
station may be up to six stories to a maximum height of 70 feet.
b.
At intersections of public streets, or private streets that
are designed to public street standards with sidewalks and parkways,
corner buildings may be up to four stories tall to a maximum height
of 55 feet.
c.
Buildings cannot be more than two stories taller than adjacent
existing single family homes.
4.
Land Use Intensity. Allowable square footage for all developments,
including single use commercial and single use residential, as well
as mixed-use projects, shall be measured by the Floor Area Ratio (FAR).
All developments with residential uses will be regulated on the basis
of FAR compliance rather than the number of residential units. The
maximum Floor Area Ratio (FAR) will be 3.0 for developments within
1,000 feet of a mass transit facility and 1.0 for developments outside
of 1,000 feet of a mass transit facility. FAR will be calculated by
dividing the overall gross floor area by the gross site area. Gross
floor area includes all building residential square footage. Accessory
parking or transit facility parking is not included in the Gross Floor
Area for FAR calculations.
5.
Parking. Large surface parking lots are not appropriate to the scale
and character of this district. To promote smaller lots, shared parking,
on-street parking and the shared use of public parking facilities,
and mixed-use developments will be allowed to reduce the on-site parking
requirements outlined in Section 6-306B by up to 25%.
6.
Setbacks.
a.
Purpose of the setback requirements:
(1)
To create attractive and pedestrian oriented streets with buildings
and landscaping along the sidewalks; and
(2)
To minimize the visual impacts of surface parking lots and drive-through
facilities along streets by locating these to the rear (preferred)
or sides of buildings. If parking lots are located in the side-yard,
an enhanced landscaping buffer with pedestrian accommodation and amenities
must be provided.
[Ord. 4210, 12-18-2006]
c.
Building setbacks from street right-of-ways: Setbacks between
the street right-of-way and the building facade facing the street
shall follow the minimum requirements set in Table 6-212.D.6.c below.
The setback width is related to the width and character of the street.

is maintained in the right-of-way; 0 lot line buildings will be allowed
without a parkway when the sidewalk is at least 10 feet wide, with
room for trees in grates;
|
These pedestrian oriented streets shall be defined by buildings
with active street fronts, multiple entrances and well articulated
street facades, and by parkway trees along the sidewalk. Buildings
shall be allowed to be placed at the lot line or set back up to 15
feet to strengthen the pedestrian character of the street
|
d.
Building setbacks from rear and side lot lines that do not abut
a street: All buildings must maintain a minimum of 30 feet of setback
area from the rear lot line and a minimum of 15 feet of setback area
from the side lot lines that do not abut a street.

3.
Street Facing Building Facades. The addition of windows along building
facades are attractive, allow pedestrian views and daylight to the
inside of the building, especially on street facing building facades.
a.
Each street facing non-residential building facade on the ground
floor shall be at least 35% transparent between four feet and eight
feet from adjacent grade. Each facade shall be calculated independently.
b.
The bottom of any window used to satisfy these transparency
requirements may not be more than four feet above adjacent grade.

A.
Purpose. The purpose of the Open Space District is to protect the
Village's parks, natural areas, retention ponds, detention basins,
and open space corridor connections. It is also to ensure permanent
access to outdoor recreation and natural areas for residents in all
neighborhoods and to enhance the value of nearby properties.
B.
Permitted Uses. The following uses may be established as permitted uses in the Open Space District, in accordance with the procedures established in Sections 5-101 through 5-104:
1.
Public recreational facilities including playgrounds, public swimming
pools, playing fields, trails, sports activities, outdoor amphitheaters,
camping areas, picnicking areas, boating areas, fishing activities,
golf courses and accessory uses such as related parking, washrooms,
storage, etc.
2.
Natural areas and passive parks for the purpose of preservation of
native flora and fauna and establishing wildlife corridors.
3.
Agricultural uses including cropfields, orchards, vineyards, grazing
and community gardens.
4.
Retention ponds and detention basins.
5.
ComEd transmission towers and lines, substations and related facilities
(including collocated wireless communication facilities) within established
easements on privately and publicly owned land.
6.
Cemeteries including mausoleums, sepulchers, and related structures
on privately owned land only.
7.
Commuter rail stations including accessory restaurant/retail uses
within the station.
C.
Prohibited Uses. The following uses are prohibited as they would
conflict with the purpose of protecting parks and natural areas:
D.
Minimum Lot Size. There is no minimum lot size.
E.
Setbacks. Accessory buildings and structures cannot be placed closer
than five feet from an adjacent property line.
[Entire section amended by Ord. 5168, 2-20-2017]
A.
Intent. These regulations for the Regional Mixed-Use Campus (RMC)
are intended to guide the development of a high-intensity, interrelated
live/work/learn/play district along Interstate 80 that emphasizes
the pedestrian experience and public gathering spaces, promotes the
clustering of various knowledge-based industries, respects the natural
environment, and establishes a physical form that engages visitors,
employees and residents.
B.
Applicability. The RMC District includes properties within the area
loosely bordered by LaGrange Road on the east, Interstate 80 to the
south, 107th Avenue to the west, and certain parcels on the north
side of Orland Parkway.
|
C.
Guiding Principles.
1.
Places for People. For places to be well-used and well-loved, they
must be safe, comfortable, varied, and attractive for people.
2.
Promote a Positive Image. Walkable mixed-use developments are attractive
and distinctive places that create a positive image for businesses,
investors, and residents. Developments within the RMC District shall
strengthen this positive image by shaping the public and private realm
based upon the overarching themes of innovation, accessibility, continuity,
cooperation, pedestrian amenities, and sustainability.
3.
Cultivate the Public Realm. Plaza areas, entrances to buildings,
and other gathering places shall mark the origin and destination points
of walking and bicycling trips, and collectively define the shape
and extent of a multi-modal circulation system. Consistent landscaping,
streetscape treatments, and signage shall provide visual continuity
throughout the District.
4.
Lead with Sustainability. Compact mixed-use developments concentrate
development where the road, transit, and utility infrastructure can
support it. Because of its planned concentrated character, the RMC
District shall be much more energy efficient than the same amount
of development built in a typical one-and two-story, car-oriented
style. Thus sustainability shall start at the scale of the District
- leveraging existing natural assets - and trickle down and inform
green tactics among the individual buildings. A system to award the
inclusion of such techniques should be considered.
5.
Target Diverse Users of Varying Scales. Encourage and enable mixed-use,
cluster development to create active nodes of residential, office,
retail, entertainment, advanced manufacturing and other compatible
uses. The aim is to foster a variety of activity throughout the day
and strengthen economic and knowledge spillover among users of various
scales and interests - ranging from established corporations to start-ups.
6.
Promote Quality Urban Design and Architecture. Successful communities
apply urban design principles to orchestrate numerous physical and
non-physical elements to create dynamic, attractive places. This District
shall use urban design methodologies to enhance the inter-relationships
between blocks, streets, open space, and landscaping, and weave together
different building forms and uses. Buildings shall display a coherent
and memorable aesthetic with coordinated design details that create
a consistent, attractive and welcoming built environment.
7.
Incentivize Code Conformance. The Village shall reward those who
strive to meet its standards and regulations. Therefore, the length
of review time and number of meetings required to obtain project approval
shall be based upon the degree of conformance to this Code, with precise
conformance resulting in a relatively quick review process.
D.
Development Objectives.
1.
Interconnected Site Planning. Buildings shall be (1) located at the
street edge and clustered together with (2) shared parking facilities
and (3) common amenity space, including (4) regional stormwater detention
facilities.
2.
Life Between Buildings. The defining quality and character of the
District shall be the campus feel created through a network of (5)
public plazas and open space areas. The spaces between buildings shall
flow together and provide visual and physical connections for pedestrians.
3.
Pedestrian Experience. Sidewalks and pathways are required to (6)
connect the street frontage to all front building entrances, parking
areas, plazas, and any other destination that generates pedestrian
traffic.
4.
Mix of Development Intensity. The vast majority of the District shall
have no height limit, thereby encouraging more intense development
(7) appropriate next to an interstate. Development of (8) low- and
(9) medium-intensity structures will be encouraged to collocate and
share common areas.
