PARK AND 829 HAZEL AVENUES

An Ordinance rezoning the properties located at
965 Park Avenue and 829 Hazel Avenue to the

Trustee Oppenheim moved to waive the First Reading of the Ordinance. Trustee Benton
seconded the motion. The motion passed unanimously by the following vote:
AYES: Benton, Jester, Oppenheim, Seiden, Shapiro, Struthers (6)
NAYS: None (0)
Trustee Jester indicated the work to be done in Jewett Park was discussed in the Northwest
Quadrant Plan that was incorporated into the Village's Comprehensive Plan. He noted that the
records provided by the Park District included comments from members of the Park District
Board that the treetop overlook walkway was dangerous. He noted that he was speaking to
correct the record to indicate that the walkway is not dangerous and similar ones are in place at
the Morton Arboretum and the Chicago Botanic Garden. He stated that the Village spent a few
hundred thousand dollars on the Northwest Quadrant Plan, which included the treetop overlook
as a key element. Trustee Jester believes to suggest the proposed treetop overview is dangerous
should not stand in the record of the Village of Deerfield.
Trustee Seiden moved to adopt the Ordinance. Trustee Oppenheim seconded the motion. The
motion passed by the following vote:
AYES: Benton, Oppenheim, Seiden, Shapiro, Struthers (5)

membership in this new one. Mr. Street added Deerfield has exclusive dispatch agreements with
Lincolnshire, Bannockburn and Riverwoods that this document does not supersede.
