Section 2. That in the opinion of the President and
Board of Trustees such rezoning would be against public health,
safety, morals and general welfare in that:

family units when such area does not have the public facilities
to accomodate same, namely: proper fire fighting facilities,
proper drainage facilities and proper street facilities.
(c) That the development of said area with multi family
units would create future blight and slum housing.

Family Residential; that the rezoning of this property to multi
family would create a precedent for future multi family zoning,
which would intensify all the governmental problems aforementioned.
Section 3. That the highest and best use of the property
is as zoned, namely, R-4.
Section 4. That Edward C. Rofert, Village Attorney of
