MEMBERS PRESENT: MEMBERS ABSENT: William Shannon, Chm. Pro Tem Leah Cummins Alvin Krasnow Warren Jacobsen Thomas Hamilton Stanley Klyber Edward Hauser STAFF PRESENT: William Wesley (8:30) Gary Parrin, Adm. Assistant DuPage Zoning Board of Appeals Shannon gave notice to the Commission that the DuPage Zoning Board of Appeals is conducting a hearing for porperty located on the east side of Wood Dale Road, approximately 600 feet north of Thorndale Avenue. The petitioner is requesting to reduce the required rear yard from 20 feet to 10 feet in a B-2 general retail district to permit construction of a mini-warehouse. Hamilton noted that a 10' rear yard allows little room for easements or utilities . The minimum should be 15' , as the Village has in its Industrial Park. Hamilton moved to send a Village staff representative to participate and hear the information presented at the public hearing. The Village should object to the 10' rear yard request. Hauser seconded the motion. All present voted "AYE' . Centex Industrial Park Unit No. 203 Wesley moved to approve the subdivision of Unit No. 203. Hauser seconded the motion. All present voted 'AYE' . Felbinger's Second Subdivision Hauser moved to approve the second subdivision. Hamilton seconded the motion. All present voted 'AYE' . Koenig's First Subdivision Hamilton suggested that the Commission not take action on this plat. His reasoning is that the Biesterfield Right-of-Way should be reflected on the plat. The Engineer will be requested to verify that a 100' Right-of-Way was considered when reviewing the plat. Shannon told Claude Koenig that they will act on the plat at the next regular Plan Commission meeting. Plan Commission Minutes - 2 - August 23, 1976 Higgins Industrial Park Unit No. 178 Wesley moved to approve the two lot subdivision. Hamilton seconded the motion. All present voted 'AYE ' . Antenna Text Amendment Hamilton said that the proposed text amendment is not acceptable to the Plan Commission nor to the residents . The amendment is ill-conceived and does not meet the height problem facing radio operators . Hamilton moved that the Commission deny the proposed amendment. In addition, the Commission should obtain various zoning ordinances from surrounding communities to review additional approaches to zoning for antennas (resources) and allow residents to give input into drafting a more workable and comprehensive amendment. Wesley seconded the motion. All present voted to deny adoption of the text amendment. Wesley suggested that a single spokesman for the CB interests discuss redrafting of the amendment with the Building Commissioner to provide input into a more comprehensive ordinance. Clark Fulton suggested that the HAM and CB operators get together •to collectively discuss and prepare an ordinance which would meet the approval of both groups . Their proposed draft could then be rev:i_ewed by the Building Commissioner. There appeared to be a general consensus from the audience on this approach. The meeting adjourned at 10:30 p.m. Submitted by: ry Parrin dm' strative Assistant GEP:ms (8/24/76) c: Chairman & Members of Plan Commission, Village President and Board of Trustees , Village Clerk, Village Manager, Administrative Assistant, Building Commissioner, Director of Public Works/Engineering, Planning Consultant, Director of Parks and Recreation, Calkins , Centex.
