An ordinance was presented for first reading to allow the construction of an unenclosed

by a vote of 5-0.

Commission had voted 3-1, with one abstention, to deny the request; the petitioner
was appealing that decision.

ORD. 5469
VILLAGE
MANAGER'S
REPORT
ANY OTHER
BUSINESS
CLOSED
SESSION
The Commission's recommendation for denial of the request was based primarily on the
location of the sign on the property, traffic volume, and the likelihood of motorists being
distracted while reading the sign. The abstention was based on the fact that a competitor
of CVS employs that Commissioner.
Board members discussed those factors and determined that none of them were
significant enough to deny the petitioner's request. It was also pointed out that Planning
and Zoning Commission minutes (10/28/04) stated the text on the proposed sign would
be displayed for a 10-15 second interval--it should have read "15 minute display."
Trustee Hoefert, seconded by Trustee Corcoran, moved to waive the rule requiring two
readings of an ordinance.
Upon roll call:
Ayes: Corcoran, Hoefert, Lohrstorfer, Skowron, Wilks, Zadel
Nays: None
Motion carried.
Trustee Hoefert, seconded by Trustee Zadel, moved for approval of Ordinance No. 5469:
AN ORDINANCE GRANTING A SPECIAL USE PERMIT

Upon roll call: Ayes: Corcoran, Hoefert, Lohrstorfer, Skowron, Wilks, Zadel
Nays: None
Motion carried.
