The clerk called the roll and reported the following were Present: I. K. Hearn, President John A. S. Lindemann James E. Mandler George P. Schleicher Ellis W. Smith James M. Wetzel Absent: None and that a quorum was present and in attendance at the meeting. Also present were Messrs. Byron Matthews, Village attorney, Norris Stilphen, John Aberson, Plan Commission Chairman, and Plan Commission members Mrs. Carol Briber, William Schroeder and William Theiss. President Hearn summarized the background of the proceedings, and read the Plan Commission report dated March 28, 1963, recommending M- zoning for the tracts, with a Conditional Use to permit outside storage of materials and equipment. He stated it was the long term policy of the Village to seek to annex all property south of County Line Road to the Toll Road in order to exert maximum control over its ultimate use. Mr. Richard Houpt, attorney for Soil Testing, described the proper- ties, and stated the three tracts were lots of record, and were served by a private road constructed by the owner. He stated a building setback of 50 ft. from the center line of the private road was required by the owner, and asked for a variation to permit parking within this area. Discussion was had on the matter of variations and the Village attorney stated no setback requirements were established by ordinance for private roads and therefore no variation was needed. Mr. Houpt stated a 50 ft. easement was owned by the Toll Road adjacent thereto, wherein no buildings could be constructed, but parking would be permitted. After further discussion it was agreed that no variation in lot size was needed, since the tracts were lots of record and thereforethe minimum lot size of 5 acres required by the Zoning Ordinance was not applicable; the tracts front on the private road, and therefore no setback or parking variation was needed. Trustee Wetzel expressed concern about screening the parking and storage area from the Pfingsten Road overpass. Decision was made that the agreement be re- written setting forth the above - described statements in order that no misunderstanding of conditions arise at a later date. President Hearn asked the Plan Commission to submit its report as soon as possible in order the complete the steps necessary for the Court hearing in Cook County and annexation of the properties. On motion by Trustee Schleicher, seconded by Trustee Lindemann, the meeting was adjourned at 9:15 p.m. APPROVED: President ATTEST: Village Clerk 1
