end
BACKGROUND:
The site at 16338 Spencer Road, on the north side of Spencer Road, east of Cherry Hill Road, was recently acquired by the developer of the Cherry Hill Business Park. The subject Resolution approving dedication of a .184-acre portion of Spencer Road as public right-of-way is associated with the previously approved annexation of 97.1 acres of land located at the southeast corner of Cherry Hill Road and Spencer Road. This annexation was approved on May 17, 2022. Right-of-way dedications along the north side of Spencer Road, east of Cherry Hill Road were associated with the annexation petition. The site at 16338 Spencer Road was not included in the annexation petition since the applicant did not yet own this property.
The applicant has recently acquired the property at 16338 Spencer Road and is looking to dedicate the corresponding frontage as public right-of-way as shown in the attached Plat of Dedication for future Spencer Road improvements. Improvements to Spencer Road are being done to accommodate future warehousing development that was recently approved on both sides of Spencer Road with the Cherry Hill Business Park West Unit 6, Phase 2 Subdivision on the north side of Spencer Road, and Cherry Hill Business Park (21) Subdivision on the south side of Spencer Road. The City of Joliet Public Works Department has reviewed and supports this dedication.

recommendation

1. Resolution Approving Dedication of a .184-Acre Portion of Spencer Road as Public Right-of-Way.
