BACKGROUND:
The applicant, Cullinan Joliet, LLC, seeks approval of the Preliminary Plat and Recording Plat of Rock Run Crossings Drive Phase 2 Subdivision and a Plat of Vacation of approximately 1.7 acres of Quartz Drive to allow development of a three-lot commercial subdivision in the subject portion of the Rock Run Collection development. The subject property is approximately 40.4 acres and is made up of Lot 7 from the Rock Run Crossings Lot 3 Resubdivision, which was platted in 2024. The property has remained undeveloped throughout the past several years. Right-of-way for Rock Run Crossings Drive shifted briefly to the west but has since been reestablished along its original alignment.
All three lots would have frontage along Rock Run Crossings Drive. Lot 3 would have frontage on both Rock Run Crossings Drive and Gateway Boulevard. Lots 2 and 3 will likely be further subdivided in the future as additional development in this area materializes. Lot 1 would be occupied by a future commercial tenant. A 10-foot landscaping easement would be provided along the Rock Run Crossings Drive and Gateway Boulevard frontages. The developer would be responsible for extending water and sanitary sewer mains down Rock Run Crossings Drive to service Lot 1 at the subdivision’s southern end.
The applicant is also requesting a vacation of Quartz Drive to accommodate shifting development patterns within the southern portion of the subject area. A temporary turnaround is shown at the southern end of Rock Run Crossings Drive. This turnaround will be released when Rock Run Crossings Drive is expanded further south as property to the south develops. ComEd and NICOR have confirmed that it does not have any utilities within the existing Quartz Drive right-of-way. Staff have not received any notice of existing utilities from other providers. Quartz Drive will be rebuilt once the southernmost portion of the overall site is developed.
Approval of the preliminary plat, recording plat, and plat of vacation would allow for future development of a three-lot commercial subdivision. All three lots have sufficient access and frontage along either Rock Run Crossings Drive or Gateway Boulevard. The developer has committed to expanding public utilities as necessary to service the development.
