RJT PARTNERS - Rezoning from M-1 to B-3 ( .55 acre located at the northeast corner of Devon Avenue and Tonne Road) The public hearing was called to order at 8:13 p.m. by Chairman John Glass. Steve Elrod presented a revised site plan and engineering plan to the Plan Commission. He stated that the 24,000 square foot parcel was in unincorporated Cook County. The property has an abandoned Citgo station on it. The property is zoned M-1 on the Village's Compre- hensive plan. Elrod further stated that RJT Partneri will convert the gas station into a restaurant by remodeling and making additions to the exist- ing building. According to Elrod, the restaurant will have 68 seats, two employees and adequate parking spaces to meet code requirements. Additional parking also could be added later if necessary. He stated that he would be seeking a variance from the rear yard and side setback requirements and that he would seek a waiver from the sidewalkrequirement. Clark Fulton inquired about the type of restaurant that was planned. Vic Ballentino responded that a Peppino's restaurant, Italian fast food, • was planned. Peppino's is a full service sitdown restaurant. He said that Peppino' s hours of operation would be 6 a.m.- 10 p.m. , Monday through Saturday. .. .continued next page -2- Fred Geinosky asked about the need for the side and rear yard variations. Elrod responded that a 75-ft. setback from residential districts is required under Village code. Due to the location of the building, the setback would be 54 feet on the north side and 27 feet on the east side. Orrin Stangeland asked if there would be a drive-through window. Elrod stated that there would be no drive-through window. David Paliganoff inquired about the management of the restaurant. Ballentino responded that his son would probably manage it. Several persons who live in unincorporated Cook County and near the subject property addressed the Plan Commission. Their main concern was that the developer install a fence along the property line to pre- vent trash from blowing onto their property. Clark Fulton asked why the developer wanted to be annexed to Elk Grove Villag; and what RJT Partners would do if the requested rezoning was denied. Elrod responded that Elk Grove's good reputation and the need for Village sewer and water were the reasons for the annexation request. He also noted that if the Village denied the request for rezoning and annexation, Peppino's probably would be built under the County zoning. Chairman Glass stated that the Plan Commssion believed that sidewalks were necessary. The other Plan Commission members all had previously stated this same belief. Chairman Glass also announced that the public hearing would be continued to August 20, 1986, • at 8 p.m because the petitioner had not put the location of the public hearing on the notification sign.
