April 21 , 1972 seminar. It was reported that Chairman Shannon, Mr.
Siewert and Mrs . Cummins plan to attend.
B . Cook County plan for extending Oakton. It was decided that, having
noted the backup material regarding this issue , it was not necessary
for the Plan Commission to take any action since the Village and the
County had already gone on record in opposition to this ludicrous
proposal.

that Howard Street be extended through to the Perrie Grove Apartment
Complex as originally proposed and approved by the Plan Commission.

approval or disapproval by the department.
G . Village on the Lake - Preliminary of. Phase III. It .is not equitable
to merely report that this item was postponed for lack. of department
recommendations . It should be recorded in the minutes of these
proceedings that members , in their characteristically magnanimous
charitable mood towards developers , consented to review and discuss
the amended plans of Lot I, Village on the Lake . Forty-five minutes
later, frustrated by the challenge to compare the amendments with
the previously approved preliminary without the benefit of the depart-
ments' analyses, Mr. Siewert proclaimed to Mr. Castleton, "We
won't be stampeded! " Mr. Castleton, alert to the sound of indisput-
able authority, packed his plan and departed .
3 . Unfinished Business:
A . Townhouse Additions - Postponed .
B. Disclosure Act - Postponed .
C . Plan Commission Dinner. It was decided to move this gala event
from April 8th to April 22nd in sensitive consideration of the.possibility
that only ivir. Rettenbacher and Mrs . Hamilton might be able to attend
on the 8th - and Mr. Hamilton did not like that.
D . "Public Hearing Notice . Copies of the ordinance recently adopted by
the Village of Arlington Heights were distributed to members for their
consideration and discussion at the next meeting. In his customary
czarist fashion, Chairman Shannon has precluded this by totally
eliminating the item from the agenda of the,April 6 meeting.

6. Building Commissioner's Report. Mr. Rettenbacher moved forward on his
