Plat of Vacation and a Plat of Dedication at 1201 Burning Bush Lane, at 7:37 p.m.
Consuelo Andrade, Development Review Planner, stated the Petitioner was applying for approval of a Plat of
Easements at 1201 Burning Bush Lane. The current property owner applied for a building permit in 2008 to
construct a new single-family residence. Staff denied the permit because the proposed home would be
encroaching onto the existing ten foot easement. Therefore, the Petitioner was seeking to vacate the easement in
order to construct the home.
Ms. Andrade showed the Plat of Easements where the Petitioner would vacate the existing ten foot easement and
dedicate a five foot easement along the rear property line for public utilities and drainage. Ms. Andrade said that
Staff recommended approval of the motion listed in the Staff Report.
Chairman Rogers asked if the Plat was reviewed and approved by Engineering. Ms. Andrade stated yes and the
plat will require Engineering's signature on the plat.
Mr. Donnelly asked ifthere was an easement that ran along the side of the property. Ms. Andrade said there was
an easement along the north end of the subject property.

Chairman Rogers swore in Zlatka Pavlovic, 1901 E. Euclid, Mount Prospect, Illinois. Ms. Pavlovic stated she
was the former owner of the subject property. She said she was trying to remove the easement so the current
owner could build a large home on the site and not interfere with the current easement. Ms. Pavlovic stated she
visited with all the applicable utility companies that agreed and signed off on the plats.
Chairman Rogers confirmed that the Petitioner was creating a new lot of record. He asked if there was anyone in
the audience to address this case. Hearing none, he closed the public portion ofthe case and brought it back to the
board.
Keith Youngquist said the case was straightforward. The only way to build on the property would be to remove
the current ten foot easement.
William Beattie asked about the easement that runs north of the subject property. He wanted to make sure there
was enough room between both properties.
Chairman Rogers said there is a five foot easement on the subject location and a five foot easement on the
property to the north. This gives a ten foot easement total that is standard for side yards.
Leo Floros made a motion to approve a Plat of Easement Vacation and Easement Dedication, titled Plat of
Easements, for the property at 1201 Burning Bush Lane. Keith Youngquist seconded the motion.
The Village Board's decision is final for this case, Case Number PZ-27-08.
