A Resolution by the Village of Mount Prospect objecting to
f~ ._".''I#ji{1.
the rezoning R-4 (Single Family District) to B-5 (General Commercial
District of two lots located on the'Northeast corner of Golf Road and
Busse Road in Elk Grove Township, designated by the Cook County Zoning
~,jf'!f,t
Board of Appeals as Docket #1101.
Whereas, George L. Busse & Company seek the rezoning of
approximately 1 1/4 acres located on the Northeast corner of Golf Road
and Busse Road in Elk Grove Township, from its current R-4 (Single Family
District) to the B-5 (General Commercial District) which case was
docketed by the Cook County Zoning Board of Appeals as Docket #1101; and
Whereas, the Village of Mount Prospect completely surrounds,
is contiguous and therefore within one and one-half miles of the property
sought to be rezoned; and
Whereas, the Village of Mount Prospect appeared at a public
. hearing on said Docket #1101 on October 10, 1966 and then and there stated
its opposition to the proposed amendments and reclassification; and,
Whereas, the President and Board of Trustees of the Village
of Mount Prospect desire to exercise the authority to file a formal ob-
jection conferred upon them by Section 3158 of Chapter 34 of the Illinois
Revised Statutes.
Now, Therefore, Be It Resolved By The President and Board
of Trustees Of The Village of Mount Prospect, Cook County, Illinois:
SECTION ONE: That the Village of Mount Prospect does hereby
object to the rezoning described above and requests the
County Board to vote its official objection and does hereby
state that the reasons for the objection are as follows:
A. That the property immediately North of the subject pro-
perty is improved with single family residences in Cook
County, the property immediately East of the Subject pro-
perty is improved with single family residences in Cook
County; the three remaining corners of the intersection are

improved with retail gasoline service stations, so that all
the property North and East of the subject property is de-
veloped in a single family atmosphere, thus making this
proposal incompatible with the immediate area and an invasion
into an established residential area.
B. That on lot 10 prior to 1963 there existed a covenant
running with the land that said lot was to be developed for
residential use only, said covenant ran with adjoining lots
in the area, thus giving adjoining land owner reliance on
same.
C. That on lot 9 there exists presently a retail gasoline
service station as a legal non-conforming use, which status the
Village desires to have remain, so that the use of same cannot
be expanded to include a truck parking area, truck terminal,
and house trailer court.
D. Water facilities for lot 10 would be through the installation
of a private well and no testimony was introduced as to the
feasibility of same as being adequate for the use intended.
E. That the petitioner made available no plan to the Board as
to the disposition of the storm water run off in an area where
the problem is critical.
F. That the number of ingresses and egresses on the subject
two lots will cause a congested traffic pattern within 300
feet of the controlled intersection of Golf Road and Busse
Road as presently designed and said proposal will cause even
greater congestion to the intersection when the contemplated
widening of Golf Road materializes in the very near future.
G. That the parking spaces for 22 cars for the 4 store building
on lot 10 will be inadequate to 2cccrnockt.e and will cause a
burdensome and dangerous congestion at or near the intersection
of Golf Road and Busse Road.
H. That the lighting proposed for lot 10 will cause an undue
hardship to the adjacent residences by subjecting them to said
lights to the hour of midnite seven days a week thus interrupt-
ing those residents of the peace and enjoyment of their establish=J
residences.

That the uses proposed at said hearing could all be
obtained in a more classified, protective classification
of B-2 (Restricted Service District) thereby protecting
the established residential area developed in Cook County
adjacent to the subject property.
