MEMBERS PRESENT: MEMBERS ABSENT: William Shannon Alvin Krasnow William Wesley Stanley Klyber Thomas Hamilton Leah Cummins Warren Jacobson STAFF PRESENT: Edward Hauser Thomas Rettenbacher, Building Comr. Gary Parrin, Administrative Asst. Gaurilos Special-Use Permit Hamilton moved to deny the Gaurilos request for a special-use permit to construct a restaurant at the southwest corner of Devon Avenue and Elmhurst Road due to the danger of an aircraft crash at the site. In addition, the site would be put to better use for industrial purposes which would not attract as many people. Hauser seconded the motion. The Administrative Assistant informed the Commission that he had spoken with the FAA. The FAA had no objections to the restaurant, but were awaiting a report from the petitioner on electro-magnetic interference. The Airline Pilots' Association was also contacted through Joe Davies. His concern was to prevent glaring or vision obstructing signs on top of the restaurant. Hamilton stated that it is not good planning for a restaurant at that location. it is in the best interest of the Village to keep the land for industrial purposes. Wesley noted that the Police Department may prefer not to generate traffic in the industrial park area after normal working hours. A restaurant would require constant surveillance and require increased patrol activities. All present voted to deny the special-use petition. Centex Industrial Park Unit 207 Wesley moved to approve the subdivision. Hamilton seconded the motion. All present voted "Aye". Arvi dson Shannon found nothing objectionable with Hauser's minority report. It states his position very well.
