Trustee Marienthal commended the Police Department and STOP SIGNS
Public Works Department for the installation of Stop signs
at the Village's signal lights that say "Do Not Drink and
Drive" in the folded side. Other communities have similar
signs, but they have no type of public interest information
on them.
Trustee O'Malley added a follow-up to the recent negative CHIPPER'S
newspaper article on Chipper's. He recommended that Staff
make a positive effort to increase business through
advertising. The signage should be changed to let people
know that it s a family restaurant with good quality food,
not just a golf club. He suggested having a Grand Opening
in connection with Buffalo Grove Days.
Trustee Reid agreed with Trustee O'Malley and asked Staff
for a report on what is being planned for Chipper's. He
commended the weekend activities that included dedication of
the Service Facility at Emmerich Park, Willow Stream Park
and the Rotary Village Green at the Town Center. These are
significant additions to the community and will be a benefit
to all our citizens.
Mr. Szymborski asked if there were any questions. MANAGEMENT REPORT
Regarding the litigation section, Trustee Mathias asked for
clarification of the citations. For instance - What
happened at 621 Harris Drive and why is it being referred to
the Village Attorney? He asked that the nature of each
violation be included in the future.
Trustee Marienthal commented that the schedule items that
are to be completed at 95 Forest Place have not been done
and it is now back in court.
r. Raysa responded that this case is still in the court and
he will check into the progress.

meeting the week of June 25th, and have something to present
to the Board on July 2nd.

PUBLIC HEARING - RIVERWALK NORTH
Trustee Marienthal reconvened the Public Hearing that was tabled on
June 4, 1990. Mr. Raysa cited the June 4th minutes and said that
Riverwalk North was continued based on the premise that there would be
a full board at this time. In order to pass an annexation agreement,
5 votes are required. He recommended another continuance of the
public hearing to July 2, 1990 after requesting comments from the
audience. He noted that Bob Pfeil, Village Planner, has submitted the
Annexation Agreement and Preliminary Plan, dated June 14, 1990.
There were no comments from the audience.

PUBLIC HEARING - FIRE STATION #27
Mr. Robert Pfeil, Village Planner, explained that when the Plan
Commission held a Public Hearing on May 16, 1990 to recommend the site
plan and special use, two variances had not been published.
Technically 30 spaces are required based on the standard of one space
per 250 square feet, but the Preliminary Plan provides 22 spaces and
based on the staffing level, that number is more than adequate.
No parkway trees were planned for Route 22 because the Village
Forester and Fire Department agreed plantings in the parkway would
hinder visibility and create safety problems for vehicles entering and
leaving the fire station site. The Plan Commission recommended the

Rob Sherman congratulated the Village for obtaining the QUESTIONS FROM THE
site for a post office. He also suggested changing AUDIENCE
Chipper's to Chipper's Family Restaurant. He is also
concerned with the sale of food products from motor vehicles
especially ice cream trucks. Young children run into the
street and it is dangerous. There are enough businesses in
the Village for families to purchase these products and give
7899

them to their children at their choosing, not during dinner MOBIL VENDERS
hour, etc. He encouraged this practice to be eliminated
after this year when business licenses expire.
Trustee Marienthal directed the Village Manager's office to
research other Villages practices in regard to ice cream
trucks and to report back to the Board.
Trustee Mathias asked for a report from the Police Chief to
determine if there have been injuries to any children from
this type of sale.
Trustee Marienthal explained the Consent Agenda, stating CONSENT AGENDA
that any member of the Board or the audience could request
that an item be removed for full discussion. Trustee

6/18/90
Trustee Mathias summarized the public hearing discussion APPEAL OF ZBA
relative to the variance approved by the ZBA on June 19, VARIANCE
1990 granting a 6 foot privacy fence along the side lot line (1119 Mill Creek)
from the rear of the house to the rear lot line.
ZBA Chairman Richard Heinrich affirmed that the original
petition was amended when the ZBA requested that the fence
be 5 feet high along the side lot line up to the rear of the
house. No transition piece is necessary.
Attorney Dennis Carlson represented Edward and Mary Le Blanc
in their appeal of the Friese variance. After the LeBlanc's
were sworn in, Mr. Carlson conducted a question/answer type
examination to inform the Trustees that on November 26,
1990, Mr. Friese was observed mixing a perticide which he
spilled along the side of the house about 2 1/2 feet up.
The day was windy. Mr. LeBlanc had an immediate severe
reaction to the neurotoxin including cramps in her face,
ears, head, throad, bronchial tubes and trachea. She was
unable to breath. As a result she has not been able to stay
in the house. The medical condition is the result of
exposure to perticides while applying wallpaper 15 years
ago.
Mrs. LeBlanc said they have asked the Frieses to take care
when using pesticides, because it comes into the house and
makes her ill. She has been under a doctor's care for many
years.
Trustee Marienthal said the information being offered is not
germane to subject which is the height of a fence.
Mrs. LeBlanc said a high solid fence will affect the amount
of ventilation that comes into their yard. During the past
23 years no fence was ever proposed before the civil suit
was filed against the Frieses five months ago.
Mr. LeBlanc said the Frieses have had the property line
surveyed and stakes have been placed on his property.
Trustee Marienthal stated this information is not necessary
for the Board to make a decision relative to the height of
the fence.
Mr. LeBlanc stated that soil samples have been taken over
the past 4 months and due to the amount of insecticide used,
it has seeped 10 feet over the property line.
Trustee Marienthal asked if the Village Health Officer was
contacted? Mr. LeBlanc responded, "Yes, and he has also
contacted the EPA."
Mr. Carlson summarized the discussion adding that the
7902
6/18/90
purpose of requesting a variance for a 6 foot fence was in
retaliation of the civil suit, and there is no requirement
for the fence.
Mr. Raysa said the LeBlancs have another witness and he
requested that testimony be permitted concerning air flow.
Mr. Lauren Tronet, Executive Director of Lake County
Defenders, was sworn in. He is also a member of several
other environmental health orgainzations with 8 years
experience in the field of perticides and he has testified
before Congress. He gave an extended summary of the effect
perticides have on the land around a house and how these
perticides degrade over a period of time. Dursban
(contained in Ortho-Klor) is classified as a nerve gas and
increases in toxicity as it degrades. The amount of air
movement, moisture, heat and light determines the rate of
degradation. This is pursuant to the fence height issue,
between 5 feet and 6 feet because in a small area between
houses the 1 foot difference would result in 20% greater
blockage of air and light, lower soil temperature, more soil
moisture, and less air movement. A lower fence would permit
more light and air flow.
Trustee Mathias asked how this perticide can be neutralized?
Mr. Tronet explained that the soil could be hauled away to a
toxic waste dump. Application of a high concentration of
bleach or ammonia, might work, but this would cause a
reservoir of the chemical that would continue to off-gas
(evaporate) .
The label directions are for a very dilute solution. The
soil samples showed a very high concentration of the Dursban
material that came as a result of runoff and/or through the
soil.
Trustee Mathias asked if there would be any natural
degradation pf the pesticide, and if so how long would it
take? How would the proposed fence affect the natural
action?
Mr. Tronet responded that under the existing conditions, it
could take several years, considering the amound remaining
in the soil. The shadier the area and the more moisture in
the soil, the longer it will take to alleviate the problem.
Maximum sunlight, temperature, wind and less moisture would
help remit the problem, but it will take several years. The
height of the fence will affect the natural conditions, and
will give approximately 20% more shade.
Trustee Reid asked where the mixture was applied?
7903
6/18/90
Mrs. LeBlanc responded that the pesticide was applied along
the side of the house and to the area adjacent to the patio
along the southeast property line. The fence would affect
the air movement in the back yard.
Trustee Reid calculated from the compass points that the
height of the fence would have no affect on the amount of
sunlight in the afternoon and evening. The 5 foot fence
along the side of the house requires no variance. The issue
before the Village Board is not the reason for the fence.
Other issues can be resolved in a different forum.
Trustee O'Malley asked Mrs. LeBlanc when she moved out of
the house, whom she contacted, and when was the Village
Health Department contacted?
Mrs. LeBlanc said she moved away immediately after the spill
and contacted her doctor. The Village Health Officer was
contacted only recently.
Brian Sheehan, Village Helath Officer, was not present. Dr.
Saidel, President of the Board of Health was present and
asked about Mr. Tronet's area of expertise? There was no
response.
Trustee O'Malley asked if the Village has any independent
information about the seriousness of the pesticide that was
used. Mr. Sylverne replied that Mr. Sheehan is gathering
information.
Trustee Marienthal requested testimony from the Frieses.
Norman and Evelyn Friese were sworn in. Mr. Friese stated
that the law suit will be settled elsewhere. He stated
their reasons for requesting the fence were strictly for
privacy. Relative to the height, they compromised with the
Zoning Board of Appeals and agreed to construct a 5 foot
fence between the houses and a 6 foot fence from the rear of
the house to the rear lot line.
The area in question is shaded in the morning by the
LeBlancs house and in the afternoon by the Frieses house.
During midday the area is wide open. The pesticide
(Ortho-Klor) was only applied around the house and up to the
foundation between the house and the patio. He has used the
same solution (mixed as directed on the bottle) for the past
several years only in the fall, to prevent ants from coming
into the house. They use Weed and Feed for the grass.
Mr. and Mrs. Friese listed other annoying situations that
have occurred.
The fence is needed for privacy. Mrs. Friese had a mild
heart attack 2 1/2 years age and the situation has created
much stress. The LeBlancs watch all their back yard
1 7904
6/18/90
activities and a fence will help alleviate the situation.
Relative to the flow of air and wind, there is no
obstruction from the front which faces the southwest.
Sunlight is also plentiful. All nearby Villages permit
standard 6 foot fences without a variance.
Trustee Marienthal asked if the expert testimony had been
given to the Zoning Board of Appeals? Answer: "No."
Trustee Mathias asked Mr. Raysa if an appeal of a ZBA
variance can be based on "new testimony" or only on the
testimony given at the public hearing? He believes that the
petitioners should have the opportunity to have any expert
testify on their behalf. He would concur if they want a
continuance.
Mr. Raysa responded that in a court of law, which this is
not, an appeal from a trial court to the appellate court, if
testimony is not presented at the trial court (equatable to
the ZBA) , then it is not entered at the appeal. From past
ZBA appeals, certain things have been brought up to the
Village Board that were not discussed by the ZBA. The Board
could remand the matter back to the Zoning Board, but no
rules of evidence apply. From the ZBA minutes, there was no
testimony in regard to the specific issue of the 20% affect
of a 1 foot of fence on light and air.
Trustee Reid commented that a referral back to the ZBA will
not accomplish anything. Neither side will alter their
opinions. The Village Board should take action.
Moved by Reid to concur in the recommendation of the ZBA and
deny appeal. No second to the motion was made.
Mr. Raysa quoted Section 15.21.30 of the Ordinance, Appeals.
He advised the Board might want to revise the motion to
"over rule" the Zoning Board of Appeals variation on 1119
Mill Creek Drive. If that motion does not get 4 votes, the
ZBA decision stands.
ZBA Chairman Heinrich agreed that no expert testimony was
given at the ZBA hearing. In the past, where testimony has
been different, the Village Board has remanded back to the
ZBA for reconsideration. It is the Board's choice.
Moved by Reid to overrule the action taken by the Zoning
Board of Appeals regarding the variation on the issue of the
privacy fence at 1119 Mill Creek Drive.
Trustee Mathias asked the Frieses if they would like the
opportunity to bring in an expert, or would they like this
matter resolved at this time? Do they want to stand on
their presentation? The objectors also have the opportunity
it
7905
6/18/90
to have the issue remanded back to the ZBA or have the
matter deferred until a full Board is present.
Trsutee Marienthal seconded the motion.
Trustee O'Malley quoted the criteria for a fence variance:
"It must be shown that the fence will not be detrimental to
the public health, safety and welfare." Regarding the
pesticide, there has been testimony about the blockage of
air and sunlight, that was not brought up before the ZBA.
Chairman Heinrich replied that this issue was brought up by
the LeBlancs, and in deference to them in the spirit of
compromise, the ZBA asked for the fence to be lowered to
5 feet along the house.
Regarding the issue of the pesticides, there is no
independent information abailable as to whether there could
be a helath risk to others on the block. He sees no reason
for remanding the decision back to the ZBA, but he would
like to have additional information before making a
decision.
Trustee Marienthal stated the issue is the height of the
fence, and if the compounding issues concerning pesticides
was not there, then only the question is, "what detrimental
effect would the extra foot of fence have on the surrounding
neighborhood and to the rear yards?"
Chairman Heinrich responded that the ZBA did not take
testimony regarding the civil litigation or spilling of the
pesticides. The ZBA only considered the matter of the
height of the fence. The opinions about the pesticide were
not germain to the height of the fence. He personally saw
no detriment to the public health, safety and welfare of the
community. Where light and air was an issue, they
specifically asked for the fence to be lowered to 5 foot and
it will only be 6 feet past the building.
Mr. Carlson asked for rebuttal. He stated that if there is
going to be a 5 foot fence rising to a 6 foot fence, and
people can see over the 5 foot part, then the 6 foot part is
unnecessary.
Mrs. Friese said the fence will screen their patio. It will
begin at the rear of the house where the patio begins.
Mr. Freise added that from the area of the 5 foot fence
between the houses, the patio cannot be seen.
Mr. LeBlanc repeated he did not want to talk about the
pesticide and the law suit issues at to ZBA hearing, but the
chairman did not permit it.

Mr. James Truesdell, Director of Planning and Zoning for MORMON CHURCH
Richland Development and Hoffman Homes, made a presentation RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY
and requested referral to the Plan Commission for an 18 acre
site, at Port Clinton and Prairie Roads. The site was
recently annexed and zoned by the Mormon Church which is now
under construction. Hoffman Homes is the contract purchaser
of the site which consists of 45 lots, all in conformance
with the R-4 zoning district.
Mr. Truesdell said the site was once part of the Fiore
Nursery and there are many trees which will be transplanted.
Ms. Pamela Cook, Urban Forest Management, described the tree
preservation and placement plan for the site. The plant
material was inventoried. She said of the 777 trees to be
saved and transplanted, 640 will be transplanted to the two
buffer zones along Prairie Road and the railroad.
Mr. Truesdell said a number of the trees will be used on the
deeper lots. A bike path and roadway improvements will be
included. He asked for referral to the Plan Commission.
Trustee Mathias asked about the size of the lots in R-4.
Mr. Truesdell replied that minimum size is 8,750 sf. but the
lots average 11,125 sf. Most of the lots exceed the
minimum.
They are reconsidering the board-on-board fence shown on the
plan. They want to provide a 20 foot live buffer which will
provide a better sound barrier.
With Main Street on the other side of the railroad, Trustee
Marienthal cautioned against creating a tunnel.
Trustee Reid commended the developer's plan for the Soo
Line.

time. It will be zoned R-E, with 14,000 sf. minimum lots.
All lots will exceed the minimum standards for R-3 zoning,
and the minimum lot size is 10,000 sf. with an 80 foot width
in front. The average lot size is over 14,000 sf.
There is an existing 2 1/2 acre neighborhood park which
Scarsdale will extend to 5 acres and complete. The bike
path and foot bridge will be completed. The southern part
of the park can be used for active use, but the northern
part will be passive use.
They are requesting variances for 2 rear yards on lots close
to the creek from 40 feet to 35 feet.
Mr. Pfeil explained that areas located on the flood plain

Mr. Brimm explained that three funds were audited: Buffalo
Grove Golf Course, The Arboretum, and Chipper's. He
referred to Schedule "C" on page 19 which provides specific
details.
Even though there was a total loss, the Buffalo Grove Golf
