The manager reported on a meeting with the Schobl Board of District #110
on January 3rd.
In connection with the Board's consideration of the Valenti petition and
the proposed rezoning of the area west of Wilmot-Road to the Toll Road from
Deerfield Road on the north to Lake -Cook Road on the south, the following
communications were read and placed on file:

4. Resolution from Tennaqua Club, opposing proposed changes in zoning.
5. Letter from Village of Riverwoods, recommending 0 & R zoning.
6. Letter from Mr. Robert Cline, Chairman Citizens' Advisory Council,
School District #110, with petitions signed by 480 residents of
Deerfield, insisting on development of the entire area under
discussion as 0 & R.
7. Petitions presented by Mr. George Schleicher, signed by 110
residents of Deerfield opposing change from residential zoning.
8. Objection to change from residential-zoning signed by an alleged
447o of owners of property fronting on Wilmot Road from Hackberry
Road to Lake -Cook Road, filed in accordance with Chapters 24, Section
ll- 13 -14, Illinois Revised Statutes.
In response to President Whitney's request, Trustee Hearn explained that,
after several hours of debate on various proposals for the zoning of the area,
it was decided that, as a compromise, the land north of Hackberry extended would
be rezoned for an overall density of the Rrl -A District requirements of 12,000
sq. ft. lots;.with 20..09O.,sq., ft,'li6ts fronting on Wilmot Road, which would
permit acceptance of the Valenti proposal, and the area south of Hackberry Road
extended from Wilmot to the Toll Road would be zoned 0 & R with a 190 ft. setback,
235
as well as 0 & R zoninv south of County Line Road to the Tbll Road, with a 190 ft.
setback also. He stated the Board had requested the Planning Consultant to prepare
projections and layouts for these areas, but they had not yet been received.
A lengthy discussion was had on procedures to be followed to accomplish these
changes. Trustee Porter pointed out that the Hovland area could not be disregarded
since proposed changes would have great impact on that area.
Trustee Hearn moved, seconded by Trustee Mandler, that the Village attorney
be directed to prepare an ordinance amending the Zoning Ordinance which would permit
Mr. Valenti to petition for annexation on the following basis:
1. Mr. Valenti to give an.option for two years to School District #110 on
Block 3 of the proposed subdivision plat submitted by Mr. Valenti.
2. Mr. Valenti to arrange for an option in favor of the School District on
the tract of approximately 5 acres at the corner of Wilmot Road and
Deerfield Road, now occupied by the Clavey Nursery offices.
3. The overall density of land use to be the equivalent of not less than
the R -4-A District with an average minimum lot size of not less than
12,000 sq. ft. for the entire tract, with the first tier of lots on the
West side of Wiamot Road to be a minimum of 20,000 sq. ft. in area.
4. Construction of residences to be started on Block 1, with the right to
build.model homes on Block 2.
5. A revised plat of subdivision to.:be submitted along with the petition
for annexation.
and, further,, that the Plan Commission be directed to hold a public hearing to amend
the Zoning Ordinance and the Jurisdictional Flap to indicate 0 & R zoning for the area
west of Wilmot Road to the Toll Road from Hackberry Road extended to Lake -Cook
Road, and the same classification for-the entire area south of Lake -Cook Road from
the Toll Road on the west and south, to Pfingsten Road on the east.
Trustee Porter stated Trustee Hearn's motion covered to separate items - the
first the Valenti proposal for rezoning and annexation, the second, the rezoning or
other properties, President Whitney stated that if the two proposals were not
joined together, it would not be in the spirit of the compromise agreed on. Trustee
Hearn concurred with this statement, and stated further the Board would not be
keeping faith with the commitment made several months age. Trustee Porter then stated
he was not committed to any compromise, that the rezoning of the properties south of
Hackbi;rry Road and south of Lake -Cook Road was a separate action, and he was in
favor of having a draft prepared on an ordinance to rezone the Clavey property as
requested by Mr. Valenti, as well as the annexation ordinance. He stated many other
properties would be affected by the proposed 0 & R zoning, including the Hovland
area, the pony farm, and other areas inside and outside the village, and this matter
should be given •separate considerati on.
A lengthy discussion ensued on the Lake County zoning_;hearing, multiple- family
developments, and need for revision and upgrading•the Village's 0 & R regulations,
and other related matters.
Trustee Porter then moved, seconded by Trustee Petesch, that Trustee Hearn's
motion')be broken into two parts, the first concerning the Valenti rezoning and
annexation, the second regarding the proposed 0 & R hearings for the jurisdictional
area. On roll call the motion failed by the following vote:
Ayes: Lindemann, Petesch, Porter (3)
Nays: Aberson, Hearn, Mandler, Whitney (4)
Trustee Mandler then moved, seconded by Trustee Aberson, that Trustee Hearn's
motion be amended to provide that the Plan Commission be directed to hold a public
hearing only on the question of amending the jurisdictional area map, the question of
a mendment to the Zoning Ordinance to be takn up after the 0 & R regulations have
been revised. Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Aberson, Lindemann, Mandler, Petesch, Porter (5)
Nays: Hearn (1)
Discussion was had on the question of amending Trustee Hearn's motion to provide
that a study of the Hovland area be made by the Plan Commission in conjunction with
the hearing on amending the jurisdictional area map. Trustee Porter pointed out that
nearby municipalities whose jurisdictional areas overlap Deerfield's jurisdictional
236
area must be notified of the hearing.
Trustee Porter then moved, seconded by Trustee Petesch, that Trustee
Hearn's motion be amended to provide that the Plan Commission be requested to
submit recommendations for zoning and upgrading the Hovland Subdivision
simultaneously with their recommendations for the jurisdictional area. Adopted

Trustees file a protest with the Lake County
Zoning Board of Appeals to the proposed 0 & R zoning west of Wilmot Rdad', as
being a change from the official Village Plan for the jurisdictional area. It

zoning regulations. President Whitney stated he wanted to go on record that
he would not sign the Valenti subdivision plat, the zoning amendment, or the
annexation ordinance until the proposed compromise zoning is officially committed.

improving of 0 & R standards.
