NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE PRESIDENT AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE
VILlAGE OF IvDUNT PROSPECT, COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS:
SECTION ONE: That the Village of Momt Prospect does hereby obj ect to the
rezoning described herein above and requests that the Comty Board vote in
a.ccord with this official objection, and does hereby state the reasons for
the said objection as follows:
.
(1) That the rezoning of the subject tract would amomt to spot
zoning in that: properties lying immediately to the south,
north, and east of the subj ect parcel are presently zoned
single family residential and are improved as such -- in
fact the existing use and zoning of most nearby properties
is predominantly residential.
(2) That the property is sui!:ab1e for the purposes for which it
is zoned and presently occupied and utilized as zoned.
(4)
That the primary use of the property as described by the
petitioner is for the operation of a tavern within the
existing building, which has been shown to be of a construction
inadequate to meet the standards necessary for a connnercial
building lying wi thin any fire hazard conflagration district.
That the value of the property is not unreasonably diminished
by the restrictions of the existing zoning -- so .that the gain
to the public from the existing zoning of the subj ect property
under present zoning ordinance is great as compared to any
possible economic hardship on the property owner.
(5) The character of Golf Road does not render the subject property
