Rand Road, from R-I (Single Family Residence) to R-2 (Attached Single Family Planned Unit Development), for the construction of a townhome development. Director of Community Development William Cooney, updated the Board and audience on this case, stating staff's recommendations for denial of the ordinances for the rezoning and development of the townhomes. The Planning and Zoning Commission had voted 5-1 to approve the project. Petitioner Mark Janeck, representing Insignia Homes, gave a presentation in which he outlined revisions to the originally proposed plans. Those revisions were 1) reducing the number of buildings from five to four, 2) reducing the number of units from 23 to 20, 3) reducing the size of the development site to create a 17-space parking lot for Louis Anthony Hair Salon, located atthe north end of the development, and 4) changing the number of guest parking spaces for the development as a result of the reduced number and relocation of townhomes. The following individuals addressed the Board in support of the project: Lod Camp, 216 N. Louis Street; Frank Schoenberg, 105 N. Louis Street; Clifford Wesa, 109 N. Louis S~'eet; Atty. Tom Pekarski and Atty. Dennis Nudo, representing the owners of the subject property and Century Tile. In his comments to the Board, Mr. Pekarski referred to the possibility that his client might feel compelled to file a lawsuit against the Village if this residential project is not approved, since the Board also did not allow a commercial project which was proposed recently. Based on remarks made by Mr. Pekarski, Trustee Zadel asked that it be made a matter of record that he supports this project on its own merit, and that he was not threatened by the possibility of a lawsuit, as suggested by Mr. Pekarski. 3 ORD.
