Case Nos. ZBA-24-Z-73 and ZBA-25-SU-73
This case involves the request of L & D Duilders (contract purchasers
contingent upon rezoning) for the rezoning from RX to R-4 and re-
quest for the granting of a special use to permit a planned unit
development. The property which is the subject of the petition
is located at 623 Golf Road, Mt. Prospect, Illinois. Due to some
confusion in the general area concerning the actual address number,
there is attached for your review a copy of Map 21-S of our Zoning
Ordinance on which is depicted by means of hatch marks the property
in question. The petitioner was represented by attorney Robert
DiLeonardi and presented several witnesses, which included his
experts in the areas of planning, engineering and real estate.
The petitioner's specific request is for rezoning and a special
use so as to construct a 45 -unit, three-story condominium
structure. It will be noted by reference to Map 21-S that the
property in question is surrounded to the east and west by single-
family residences, both adjoining properties having constructed
thereon single-family homes which are presently occupied. It
should be further noted that Grove Drive, which abuts the subject
property at its southern portion, is at present a half street-.
It is the Committee's understanding that the 30' dedication of
the present Grove Drive resulted from the Consent Decree involving
the Mount Shire Apartments. The petitioner expressed his willing-
ness to dedicate 30' at the rear (southern portion) of the property
in order to widen Grove to a full -width street. The plans as
presented to the Zoning Board of Appeals provided for ingress and
egress from the condominium structure to be at the southern-
most portion of the property and therefore emptying into and
receiving traffic from Grove Drive. It would not take any large
imagination to envision traffic flow being directed down Tamarack
Drive and out either Palm Drive or Thornwood Lane onto Busse Road.
There were a number of objectors to the rezoning who reside in
the immediate area including the owner and occupant of the single-
family residence immediately west of the property in question.
It should also be recalled that the property at the corner of
Tamarack and Palm is presently the subject of litigation where
the position of the Village of Mt. Prospect is that that property
should remain single family.
At the conclusion of the testimony before the Zoning Board of
Appeals, the Zoning Board voted 5 to 1 against the petition to
rezone and grant the special use. The Building Committee shares
the position taken by the Zoning B-oard of Appeals and strongly
recommends to the Board of Trustees that it concur in the
vote of the Zoning Board of Appeal ' • therefore deny the request
for rezoning from RX to R-4 and the concurrent request to grant a
special use for a planned unit development. A motion to this
effect would be in order.
The petitioner, Mr. Henry Friedrichs, Jr., has requested a vari-
which variation is for residential use in a business
district, for property located at 320 West Central Road. The
evidence at the Zoning Board of Appeals hearing indicates that
the present structure is a 16 -year-old building in which there
presently is a four -room apartment used for living quarters
by the family. Due to an increase in the status of the f<m-aily
occupying the present apartment, the petitioner is in need of
additional room and desires to construct an addition consisting
of three rooms (two bedrooms and one family room). The addition
would be at the second -floor level and encloses space which is
not presently being used to any substantial degree. The addition
would be behind the existing building. Plans were reviewed with
the Building Director and the Fire Chief and the proposed
addition will conform to all of the Village requirements.
The Zoning Board voted 6 to 0 to grant the variation allowing a
residential use within a B-3 zone, which has an already existing
residential use. The'Building Committee concurs in the report
of the Zoning Board of Appeals and recommends to the Board of
Trustees that it concur in the recommendation of the Zoning Board
of Appeals to grant the variation to allow residential use within
a B-3 zone. It is requested that the Village Attorney proceed
with the preparation of the necessary ordinance to implement
such approval.
Case No. ZBA-2-Z-73
This case involves the request by the owner of Winkelman's
Service Station for rezoning from B-3 to B-4. The property in
question is presently zoned B-3 but the operation of an auto
service station is an excluded use in the B-3 district. At
the present time the operation of the automobile service station
is a legal non -conforming use. The request for rezoning from
B-3 to B-4 was presented for the purpose of enabling the owner
to upgrade the station in conformity with the present design
mode of Shell Service Stations. After review of the subject
case it is the Building Committee's position that the request for
rezoning be denied. It should be borne in mind that a rezoning
from B-3 to B-4 would permit the following types of uses in
B-4: amusement arcades, bowling lanes, bus terminals, drive-
in restaurants, hotels, and so on and so on. The Building
Committee does not feel that the property per se is of such a
size and shape as to merit rezoning from B-3 to B-4. To assist
the owner in accomplishing his desire to remodel, we suggest
that the petitioner re-advertize with his request being in the
4
nature of a special use in the B-3 classification. If the
petitioner re -publishes on this basis; we are convinced that the
Board would favorably consider granting such B-3 special use so
that he can remodel the station to present-day station designs.
From the formal point of view, therefore, it is the Building
Committee's recommendation that the petition for rezoning in
this case from B-3 to B-4 be denied as we feel that other
permitted uses under the B-4 classification would not be the
highest and best use as to this particular piece of property.
We do suggest again, however, that the administration convey to
the petitioner our recommendation that he re -publish on the basis
of seeking a B-3 special use.
At the referenced Building Committee meeting we met with Fire
Chief Pairitz, Buell Dutton, Peter Billings of the Building
Department, and the Village Attorney, Mr. John ZimmermanThe
function or purpose of this portion of our meeting was an attempt
to update all of our Codes, such as the Building Code, Plumbing
Code, Electrical Code, Elevator Code, etc., so as to reflect the
latest changes which have been adopted on a national basis and/or
in the alternative to place more restrictive provisions in
certain areas of these Codes. You will have presented separately
to each of you, and not as a part of this report, the revised
Codes. It might be helpful, however, to point out a few of the
changes which are being made so that you can appreciate the nature
of the changes which are being recommended. Following are a few
examples:
(a) Subsection B entitled e Lanes" - We have •amendet
Section 308.0 of the BOCA Code and the 1973 Supplement thereto
to permit the use of split fire lanes, The BOCA Code does not
ZZ
make provision for these and in the opinion of our Fire Chief
the adoption of such split fire lanes does provide more flexibility
and a more practical approach.
(b) Sections 21-104 and 21.105 merely provide for the adoptio
in our Code of the 1973-74 additions of the National Fire Codes
and the 1970 addition of the BOCA Plumbing Code and its 1973
Accumulative Supplement. I
(c) Section 21-302 - We have deleted the prior Subsection C
and therefore have eliminated the present permission to build
type 2-C structures. In layman's terms this means that no Butler -
type building, which while it might be non-combustible is
non -protected, can be built in Conflagration Hazard District 1.
As you may know, while these structures do not burn per se,
they can buckle since they are unprotected (witness McCormick
Place),
(d) Section 21.312, Subsection E, has been the subject of
basic language changes for clarification purposes. For example,
in the headings under 1, 2 and 3 of this subsection, specific,
types of structures have been added to the captions for clarity
purposes. In addition, numbers 10 and 11 are additions to our
Code.
(e) Section 21.313, Subsection D, entitled "Special Wiring" -
In this subsection our Code will now contain detailed language by
spec references rather than what previously have been utilized,
which was a general language approach, which in turn led to
confusion amongst builders.
Chief Pairitz and/or Messrs. Dutton and Billings are available
to answer any specific inquiries you may have concerning any
of the changes which are being adopted to our various Codes.
It is the recommendation of the Building Committee that we concur
in the recommendations for changes which have been requested
by the administration. It is important that we adopt these changes
without any delay and in line with that need it is requested that
there be a waiver of the rules for two readings of an ordinance
and that a motion be presented at the meeting on March 5 for adoption
of the changes to our various Codes. The Village Attorney has
been requested to prepare the appropriate ordinance for our review
prior to our meeting on March 5.

Attorney John J. Zimmermann; (Trustee R. N. Hendricks on
Vehicle Licenses).
A. Liq.uor License Requests:
1. The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company, Inc. Mr. Ellis
McDaniell and Bob Schwabe of A & P, met with the Committee
to discuss their request for a package license for the store
to be constructed next to the Venture store at Route 83 and
Dempster. They felt that customers huave come to expect a
broad line of products (including alcoholic beverages) at a
food market, and they wish to satisfy this expectation.
After viewing the site plan, it was evident that they did
not meet the 100 ft. (property line to property line) require-
ment from a school (Dempster Jr. High). The petitioner under-
stood that a license could not be issue6 and the Committee,
therefore, voted 2-0 to deny the request.
2. El Presidente Restaurant., Inc. Mr. Samatas withdrew their
request due to the leasing of the proposed site.

Pacfe 2.
Finance Committee Report 2-25-74
February 26, 1974
was to provide an incentive to residents to purchase vehicle
stickers early so as to not overflow the Finance Department with
last minute purchase requests before the February 15 deadline.
He felt that the loss in revenue should be based on the 4854
licenses purchased this year prior to 12-31-73, or lost revenue
of $12,135. He also felt that our road programs could be
reduced by this amount in order to offset the reduction in revenue.
The Committeer first of all, felt that the request was to lower
the vehicle tags by 25% and add the penalty for those purchasing
after 12-31-74. The Village Attorney found no provisions in the
State Statutes for the penalty provision. Upon review of the
statistics, we felt that the 12-31-73 number of vehicle licenses
sold was not realistic and that the reduction would have to be
considered on the entire 20,088, or a possible loss of revenue
of $50,220. If the penalty were imposed, which the Committee
felt would be discriminatory, it would result in a further over-
flow in the Finance Department as most persons would purchase their
vehicle licenses in December, thereby putting the burden,which is
now spread over 2� months, into one. The Committee further felt
that it is not feasible to reduce our road program to accommodate
,a reduction in vehicle licenses, based on the previous Village
Engineer's statement that at least 12 miles of roadway need
resurfacing yearly to merely maintain the condition of our streets*
Mased on the above, the Committee recommends, by a vote of 2-0,
that no reduction in the vehicle licenses be considered.

The Chairman is going to contact the City of Des Plaines to see

Finance Committee Charges: (see memo attached)
In conclusion, the Committee in the coming months will be looking
into the following:
1. Increase in wheel tax on trucks.
2. Revamping vehicle licenses into a wheel tax ordinance.
3. Eliminating reduction of dog licenses.
4. Licensing of cats.
5. Increasing bid requirement from $1500 to $2500 as provided
for in the State Statutes.
6. Reevaluating and rebidding of the insurance program.*
