ITEM SUMMARY:
Walter Lang of Tolentino Quarcini Homes has submitted a concept plan for review by the Development
Committee for a proposed development at the northeast corner of Neltnor Boulevard (Route 59) and
Roosevelt Road (Route 38), commonly known as 705 East Roosevelt Road. The proposed develop-
ment includes the construction of five (5) luxury garage condo buildings. Each building would contain a
mix of one and two car garages. The concept of these garages is to give a place for car enthusiasts a
place to store their vehicles. This proposed operation, known as iGarage, has been likened by Mr.
Lang to the Iron Gate Motor Plaza condos in Naperville on Ferry Road west of Route 59.
The property, located in the B-2 General Business District, is vacant and consists of 2.19 acres. The
last proposal for the property was a car wash that received special use approval in July of 2018. The
development of the property as a car wash, however, never moved forward. The property was last
used for vehicle repair for several years until it closed in the mid-2000s. The property has remained
vacant and unused since that time.
The City’s B-2 District does not contain a use category, whether permitted or special, that would allow
the proposed development. The most similar type of use that this proposal would be compatible with is
a self-service storage facility. This use, however, is permitted as a special use only in the M Manufac-
turing District. Therefore, to allow this type of use to occur in the B-2 District, a zoning text amendment
would be required. Given the unique character of this operation and that the intent is to exclusively
store cars in the garage condos staff recommends a new use category be created. This new use cate-
gory should specifically address motor vehicle storage condominiums as a Special Use rather than al-
lowing self-service storage facilities in the B-2 District. This would prevent a potential proliferation of
self-service storage facilities along Roosevelt Road in the B-2 District. A separate category specific to
this type of use would also avoid the proposed operation from becoming a self-service storage facility
in the future.
The Special Use category is recommended so that staff can examine a potential car condo location in
relation to possible noise and lighting impacts, and proximity to residential.
