ZBA 11-Z-86 and 12-V-86, Simonson's Nursery (east side of ZBA 11-Z-86 Wolf Road between Kensington and Euclid ZBA 12-V-86 This case was heard at the June 17th meeting of the Village SIMONSONS Board, at .which time the Board concurred with the NURSERY recommendation of the Zoning Board of Appeals to deny the request for rezoning from'R-1 to I-1 to permit office buildings. Mr. William Moore, attorney for the petitioner, requested the Village Board to reconsider their decision, stating that the Village's Comprehensive Plan, adopted in 1976 and amended in 198~, both indicate the subject property projected for light industrial use and he urged the Board to keep the dialogue open as to the possible development of this 38 acre parcel. The petitioner stated that a trade school has been in touch with the petitioner and that there is a possibility that 50% of the buildable land could be developed as a trade school. The following residents spoke in opposition to the rezoning and/or reconsideration request: Frank Smith, 903 Quince Lane Russ DeBrasio, 1638 Greenwood George Fuchs, 1404 Sycamore Peter Langen, 1409 Dogwood Page 3 - July 1, 1986 134 01in Apkar, Cedar Lane Brian P%radise, 1621 ~_dar Lane Ann '~ ' ~..ardzs, 1803 Boulder Peter Hanchock, Ironwood Len Toffle, 1821Azalia Carol Toffle, 1821 Azalia Barbara Bauer, 1412 Saulk Robert Kasner, 810 Burning Bush Resident, 927 Quince Lane Ed Bard, Greenwood Fred Turner, 1610 Dogwood Tim Bushnell, Hopi Lane " Jim Murphy, 1t13 Dogwood Mayor Krause and members of the Village Board supported the petitioners request to keep the dialogue open relative to the request for rezoning, noting that the petitioner has the legal right to ask for reconsideration and if he deems, to pursue his request in the courts. The option of negotiating with the petitioner to develop the land compatible with the neighborhood and Village's requirements would be more flexible than if a court were to issue a Consent Decree, which in effect would dictate to the Village what would be built. The petitioner did state that he would be willing to consider building single and/or multi-family on the site. He also reminded those present that should the Village permit rezoning to I-1 that he would covenant that all futnre building proposed would be presented to the Village Board, following the Zoning Board of Appeals recommendation, relative to all aspects of the proposed use. Mayor Krause suggested the petitioner revise his plan and hold neighborhood meetings to explain the revised plans. __ The date of September 4th was established for a neighborhood meeting, which the Mayor would conduct with the residents and petitioner. The meeting place was tentatively set foc the River Trails Park District building. The Village will mail a notice to each household represented on the petition presented to the Village in opposition to this project. Following the neighborhood meeting, the revised plan will be presented to the Village Board at its regular meeting on September 16th. Trustee Arthur,.seconded by Trustee Wattenberg, moved to reconsider the action taken by the Village Board on June 17th based upon the request of the petitioner and the petitioner's desire to review their project plans in an attempt to overcome the objections of the neighborhood and meet with the neighbors on September 4, 1986.
