President Thompson stated that the purpose of this Special Meeting
was to discuss the Planned Development of the Intercontinental

School District 21. Mr. Gill voiced his objection to the three
bedroom apartments contained in this development in his letter.
President Thompson stated that the plans for the Development were
given to us to be gone over for engineering, etc. , and that we have
not been able to review them fully as yet. We have attempted to
work with the footings and foundations of the buildings in an
effort to get this portion approved so that the builder may at
least begin construction; and then we will be able to review the
plans of the rest of the buildings.
Discussion on density followed. Mr. Gill stated that he is not
anti-apartments, but that he is looking out for the welfare of
the School District and would like to be heard on any future
developments.
Mr. Allan Inbinder of Kenroy Developers stated that in order to
obtain mortgage financing for Intercontinental Construction Company,
there was a request from the mortgage company that there be a spread
of units; that is one bedroom, two bedroom and three bedroom apart-
ments. A mortgage commitment has been obtained predicated on the
plan as presented and is in conformity with the Village ordinances.
A change at this time could mean that Intercontinental Construction
Company would not be here.
