BE IT RESOLVED BY THE PRESIDENT AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES
OF THE VILLAGE OF BUFFALO GROVE, ILLINOIS :
That after a careful examination of the County' s request
for the co-operation of the village in the realignment
of Lake Cook Road, the following be transmitted via this
Resolution to the County authorities :
(a) . Village planning is predicated upon the previously
approved alignment of the road as it now exists.
(b) Present alignment was submitted to both Lake and
Cook County authorities before construction and while
no written approval was given, no objections with re-
spect thereto were received from either Counties.
(c) The maps of the two Counties with respect to align-
ment are in conflict with each other.
(d) Right of way dedications were obtained for present
alignment, bridge was constructed and road completed
without objection; any change would result in loss of
dedications; loss of use; require condemnations of
additional properties ; and additional tax burden. Use
of existing alignment is feasible.
(e) New alignment will result in loss of Village Park area.
(f) New alignment will result in loss of Village water
reservoir.
(g) New alignment will hinder Fire Dept. when responding
to fire alarms.
(h) New alignment will result in safety problems re traffic
at Raupp, Buffalo Grove Road, St. Mary's School and
the Village Hall.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the request for realignment as
has been presented be denied.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Village Clerk transmit a
certified copy of this Resolution to both Cook and Lake Counties,
along with a covering letter signed by the President.
