The petitioner, Fred Galati, submitted revised plans to the Commission and explained that the lot would be used for a Union building. He further said that there would be no parties or alcohol on the premises. In addition, he said that only about 50 people at a time would be attending meetings held throughout the day at various times. Mr. Galati noted that the newly submitted plans met with all staff comments. Tom Rettenbacher stated that the building is required by ordinance to have at least one loading zone. The petitioner agreed to have this added to the plans. Leah Cummins asked several questions regarding drainage, water detention and whether or not the survey by the North Cook County Soil and Water Conservation District had been made. Robin Weaver interjected that staff would not issue Engineering permits without the survey and approved engineering plans. Mr. Galati responded that they would work with the Village staff on drainage and water detention and that the results of the soil survey have not been obtained. There followed some discussion of screening for the parking lot. The Commissioners explained to the petitioners the requirement for screening along residential areas. Mr. Glass said that the Plan Commission would further discuss the need for screening since there exists a 200 foot wide utility easement between the parcel and the nearest residential dwelling. Clark Fulton suggested that screening on the west side of the property be required if the VFW Hall property ever returned to residential use. John Orlando, President of Local 512, explained to the Commission that they needed this building because they were now renting a facility. He answered a question from Clark Fulton concerning the Union's size and potential growth, stating that only about ten per cent of the members attend meetings and that future growth would not create a problem. He further stated that they had no plans to expand. Following discussion on staff comments, Chairman Glass announced that discussion on this matter would continue on August 21, 1985 so that staff could have time to review. He adjourned the public hearing at 10:12 p.m. • s Plan Commission Minutes - 3 - August 7, 1985 Gullo-Howard - Plat of Subdivision Following brief review and discussion, Leah Cummins made a motion to approve the Gullo-Howard plat of subdivision and Orrin Stangeland seconded it.
