Chairman Donnelly called the meeting to order at 7:24 pm. Commissioner Beattie made a motion
seconded by Commissioner Mizwicki to approve the minutes from the Planning and Zoning Commission
meeting on January 9, 2020. The minutes were approved 4-0. Chairman Donnelly introduced case, PZ -
25 -19: 215 N. Westgate Road as a final plat of subdivision. This case is Village Board final.
Mr. Harmon gave a brief description of the Subject Property. Mr. Harmon explained the Subject
Property's existing conditions and that the Petitioner is proposing to subdivide the property in half. He
stated that the project requires Village Board approval and a recommendation from the Planning and
Zoning Commission because the plat is subdividing the property and dedicating easements.
Mr. Harmon explained that the subdivision would render the existing garage slab and a portion of the
circular driveway nonconforming. He stated that staff is requiring both the existing slab and portion of
nonconforming driveway be removed within six months of approval and restored to its natural
conditions. He stated that the remainder of structures on the proposed southern property meet the
bulk requirements of the Village Code for the R-1 Single -Family Residence District.
Mr. Harmon stated that staff finds that the proposed subdivision is consistent with the Village

Comprehensive Plan and meets all applicable requirements of the Village Code. Therefore, staff
recommends that the Planning and Zoning Commission make a motion to adopt staff's findings as the
findings of the Planning and Zoning Commission and recommend approval of the following motion:
"A plat of subdivision titled "Manella's Westgate Resubdivision", subject to the following conditions:
1. The existing detached garage slab and the driveway serving it shall be demolished and returned
to its natural condition within six (6) months after recording of the plat, otherwise the plat shall
be considered null and void."
Mr. Harmon stated that the Village Board's decision is final for this case.
Mrs. Arguilles stated that the Petitioner is not present for the public hearing and offered to answer any
questions that the Commissioners had.
Commissioner Beattie asked if the rest of the structures on the property were allowed to stay other
than the flatwork that is required to be removed. Mr. Harmon clarified that only the flatwork and
existing slab would be required to be removed and all other structures would remain. Mr. Beattie asked
if the remaining structures meet the zoning requirements of the district. Mr. Harmon stated that the
rest of the structures meet all zoning requirements.
Commissioner Mizwicki asked if the proposed subdivision is consistent with other lots in the area. Mr.
Harmon stated the lot immediately to the north is consistent with existing conditions, while other
surrounding lots are consistent with what is proposed.
Hearing no further comments Chairman Donnelly closed the hearing and asked for a motion.
Commissioner Beattie made a motion seconded by Commissioner Fitzgerald to approve:
"A plat of subdivision titled "Manella's Westgate Resubdivision", subject to the following conditions:
1. The existing detached garage slab and the driveway serving it shall be demolished and returned
