Plan commission approves site plan for new salon at 10460 Washington Avenue with seven staff conditions
Summary
The commission approved a 5,172-square-foot salon and wellness center at 10460 Washington Avenue (SP26-02) subject to seven conditions covering landscaping, parking counts or a demand study, bicycle parking, sidewalks or fee-in-lieu, pedestrian connections, stall dimensions and related items.
The Plan Commission voted unanimously on April 15 to recommend approval of a 5,172-square-foot building for Urban Trend Salon & Spa (rebranding as Beauty and Soul Salon & Wellness) at 10460 Washington Avenue, subject to seven staff conditions.
Sam, village planning staff, presented the site plan and seven conditions including updated landscape and screening plans (one canopy tree per four parking spaces and native prairie seed mix for nondeveloped areas), a parking-demand study or reduced stall count to meet the maximum ratio, two short-term bicycle parking spaces, sidewalks or payment of an in-lieu fee, internal pedestrian connection to the Washington Avenue frontage, and parking-stall dimension adjustments or alternative compliance.
Commissioners questioned the parking assumptions given salon staffing and customer turnover. Sam said the ordinance allows a parking-demand study to justify more spaces and recommended a short supplemental study showing shifts and peak demand. A motion to approve the site plan with all seven staff conditions passed unanimously.
Staff estimated a positive net fiscal impact per acre in long-term village revenue, noting Washington Avenue is state-owned and much interior access is private, which limits long-term village service costs.
