Trustee Ek~en brought up claim from Chester Busse wherein he Car Wash -
stated he was allowed to erect a car wash on East' Prospect by the Chester Busse
Board in June of 1969 (see minutes) and desires to pick up his building
permit. Attorney Hofert pointed out that the property is presently zoned
I-l, under which classification there is no car wash; however, the previous
Board had voted to allow Mr. Busse the car wash and there was subsequent
action cf a variati on.
Mr. Franzen, attorney for Chester Bnsse, stated that his client would like
to keep the I-1 classification rather than request B-3 be=ause it might
allow ~reater latitude at a later date. Trustee Bickley stated that he had
questioned the Southeast Civic Association about his business because they
had entered objections in a prevTeus hearing, but had now withdrawn because
of apartment b~ffer zone and intended installation of sidewalk along
Prospect Avenue.
After more discussion, Trnstee Phillips, seconded by Trustee Casterline,
moved '~hat the Building Depa~'tment be instructed to issue' permit~ for car
wash facilities ~o Chester Busse if the building me,ts the building code;

President S~hiaver read the loll owing letter from lit. Herman Greisdorf,
owner of Green Acres:
May 21, 1962
Mr. Clarenae O. $chlaver
Mount Prospect, Illinois
Dear lit. Schlaver:
This letter will confirm our conversation relative to the allocation to
the Park District of some of the Lots in Unit 3 of Green Acres Subdivision.
Considering the number of homes that will be developed in this area during
the next three years, it is important that a playground area be set aside
for the children living close'by. It is our intent to give this property to
the Village of Mount Prospect for this purpose. The tentative plat for the
SchvaIJe & Knuth property adjoining Green Acres to the west is ready at this
time,' While they made a cash contribution to the Park District when
starting their Sunset Ridge Development, per. haps they would allocate some
of their lots adjoining Unit 3 so that the property given by Green Acres and
them WOUld be contiguous.
Green Acres will-be a well planned development of fine homes andwe want
May 22, 1962
ree2 Acres to be most ce-oPerative in every .respect with the Village ef Mount
P~ospect and the Park District.
Ver~ .truly yours,
s/ Herman Greisdorf'
