RE: Zoning Board of Appeals
Docket No. 3616
Dear Sir:
This letter is written as a formal protest with respect to the
rezoning from R-5 to I-1 Restricted Industrial, of property incorporated
in the above referenced matter. The protest is being made after consider-
ing the report of the Village Attorney as to the various findings of fact
presented at the public hearing concerning this matter on Friday, January
16, 1981, which findings include inter alia, the following:
1) .. The Petitioner is seeking rezoning to the I-1 Restricted
Industrial District and would be entitled to develop the subject property
under any of the permitted uses contained therein.
2) . That said District would permit bars and cocktail lounges,
extermination shops, lumber yards, mobile hone dealers, motorcycle sales,
taverns, tombstone and monument sales, used car sales and other objection-
able uses which would have a deletari.ous effect on the neighboring
residential homes.
3) . That the expert witnesses testifying for the petitioner indicated
that the highest and best use of the subject property would not be I-1 if
the property was developed with some of the above listed objectionable uses.
4) . That the expert witness for the Village of Elk Grove Village
testified that under the present circumstances, the highest and best use
would be its present R-5 use, unless adequate restrictions were imposed for
a proposed I-1 use, said restrictions relating to restricted uses, setbacks,
ingress and egress, screening, truck traffic and loading. It was further
noted that under the terms of the petition as presented, development under
the I-1 District absent such restrictions, was the only issue before the
Board of Appeals.

5) . In terms of lineal feet, ninety (90%) percent of the property
adjacent to and abutting the subject property is developed under
residential zoning.
6) . Evidence was presented as to the location and feasibility of a
well and septic system which evidence was inmaterial in that the peti-
tioner is not bound to develop in accordance with the site plan and
rendering submitted and furthermore was inconclusive inthat the present
condition of the soil, absent the addition of two (2') feet of sandy top
soil, would not provide for an adequate septic field.
7) . The larger tract of land which includes the subject property
and other adjacent property is totally surrounded by incorporated areas
of Elk Grove Village and the trend in the area is for annexation to the
Village. Development of this property as unincorporated could or would
eventually lead to an isolated strip of an unincorporated tract being
totally bounded by corporate limits of Elk Grove Village.
8) . The Board was advised that the President and Board of Trustees
of the Village of Elk Grove Village is unwilling to annex the subject
property while the other evidence offered by the petitioner and by the
Village indicate that the Village is desirous of annexing same and have
conducted negotiations with the owner for various types of development
including restaurant commercial, unspecified cannercial, multi-family
apartments, multi-family townhouses, a single-story office complex as
well as the I-1 use suggested in this hearing for a period of time in
excess of eight (8) years. During this period the Village has
diligently reviewed each and every plan submitted as it is the position
of the Village that it is in the best interests of all parties to have
the subject property annexted to the Village.
Based on the foregoing, the President and Board of Trustees of the
Village of Elk Grove Village do hereby protest to the rezoning request
from R-5 residential to I-1 restricted industrial submitted by the
petitioner herein.
Respectfully yours,
Charles JLZet�
President, Elk mC,xove Village
