Prospect, Illinois Gentlemen: On Friday evening, August 26, the Zoning Commission with all members present, held a public hearing at the Village Hall on four zoning requests as published in the Mount Prospect Herald August 4, 1955. A copy of the Zoning Notice is attached. Case 55-11 was presented by Mr. Robert Irmiger. After the case was presented, including proof of ownership, the Commisssion voted unanimously in favor of this request. We wish to call to the Board's attention, however, that the lot in question adjoins property already rezoned for apartment dwellings, known as Lots 1 to 15 in Block 1. The plot shows an alley between those lots and Lot 16. If that property has not already been dedicated to the village as an alley, the matter should be taken into consideration by your Board as the petitioner may attempt to eliminate that alley-way in his building plans. Case 55-12. The petitioner was not present, therefore, no action could be taken. Case 55-13 was presented by Dr. Shaner. Proofs of owner- ship was presented. The Commission decided unanimously to grant the variation requested. The unanimous decision includes a variation to allow construction ofa medical office building in this location, now in zoning class of R-3. For the record, we might mention that petitions signed by adjoining property owners were in favor of this variation. Case 55-14 was presented by Mr. E. F. Gleich. A decision will be withheld until after a special meeting is held at the Village Hall at 7:30 P.M. on Friday, September 30. Members of the Park Board Planing Commission and Board of Trustees are invited to meet with the Zoning Commission at that time.
