RESOLUTION NO. 26-72
A RESOLUTION OPPOSING PROPOSED SPECIAL USE
FOR COOK COUNTY DOCKET NO. 2077
WHEREAS, there is presently pending before the Cook County Zoning
Board of Appeals an application for a special use within an M-l
Restricted Manufacturing District, specifically for property lo-
cated on the east side of Elmhurst Road, approximately 1333 feet
North of Touhy Avenue; and
WHEREAS, said proposal has been docketed and heard as Docket No.
2077 before the Zoning Board of Appeals of Cook County, Illinois;
and
WHEREAS, the Village of Mount Prospect, through its Village
Attorney, has appeared at public hearings on said Docket No. 2077~
and in each instance therein stated its opposition to the pro-
posed special use, the subject property lying within one-half
mile of the corporate limits of the Village of Mount Prospect;
and
WHEREAS, the Mayor and Board of Trustees of the Village of Mount
Prospect have considered the said application for the special use
of a mobile home park, community well and related accessory uses
to be constructed upon the subject property replacing an existing'
outdoor theatre; and
WHEREAS, the Mayor and Board of Trustees of the Village of Mount
Prospect have determined that the granting of the special use re-
quested under Docket No. 2077 would be highly detrimental to the
Village of Mount Prospect and the citizens of Cook County and
would aggravate present conditions in the area for fire fighting
purposes in that no water mains or fire hydrants will be included
within the proposed development; and
WHEREAS, the Mayor and Board of Trustees of the Village of Mount
Prospect are of the opinion that the proposed uses of the subject
property for a mobile home park would have a substantially ad-
verse effect upon the Mount Prospect Fire Department1s fire fight~
ing capabilities in the unincorporated area of Elk Grove Township
presently served by the said Mount Prospect Fire Department under
contract with the Elk Grove Rural Fire Protection District --
in that water mains and hydrants are unavailable in and about the
subject property; and
WHEREAS, the Mayor and Board of Trustees of the Village of Mount
Prospect desire to exercise their authority to file its formal
objection, as empowered by Section 3158 of Chapter 34 of the
Illinois Revised Statutes;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE MAYOR AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES
OF THE VILLAGE OF MOUNT PROSPECT, COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS:
SECTION ONE: That the Village of Mount Prospect, Cook County,
Illinois, does hereby oppose the granting of the special use
permit for the property involved with the Zoning Board of Appeals
