There were no referrals to the Plan Commission and the following items were reviewed: The development of Buffalo Grove Road was discussed. It is behind schedule and they plan to complete the 2 north bound lanes before the bad weather sets in. a./ There was some discussion on Dominicks operating 24 hours. The Village is looking into limiting business hours from 7:00 A.M. until midnight. Dominicks would like to have a 60 day trial period to see if it is feasible to have a 24 hour operation. A petition for public hearing of RESCORP was dropped. The village has issued 10 revenue bonds to this date. Commissioner Goldspiel noted that at the Village Board meetingof P g October 28, 1985 was cancelled. He has been in contact with a group of concerned citizens regarding the development of Lake-Cook Road. They are pursuing an underpass for the railroad tracks, possible bus service along Lake-Cook Road, possible light rail service by extending the Skokie Swift north and possibly west. The problem of Lake-Cook Road is going to get worse. Commissioner Goldspiel felt that the Village should look closely at the situation, reconsider the extension of Route 53 and study the Lake-Cook Road and Milwaukee Avenue intersection. Mr. Glover stated the Village Board has passed a resolution asking Federal Aid Urban System (FAUS) funding for improvement of the Milwaukee Avenue and Lake-Cook Road intersection. Mr. Balling had contacted surrounding communities looking for funding to improve this intersection but did not have much success.

ZONING ORDINANCE AMENDMENT - SECTION 17.44.060.C.1.b. Moved by Commissioner Musfeldt, seconded by Commissioner Krug that the Plan Commission recommend to the Village Board the amending of Section 17.44.060.C.1.b. of the Buffalo Grove Zoning Ordinance to permit a rectory as a permitted use in the B-5 District. Discussion: Commissioner Krug and Commissioner Laskie stated their families are members of the parish but think this pertains to the parish and is merely to take care of the zoning on this site. Commissioner Krug felt there should be a definition of a rectory in the ordinance. Staff will look into this. Commissioner Goldspiel stated that the list of permitted uses for B-5 includes community and recreational centers and this seems the way this addition will be used. He feels an argument could be made that the use fits within this ordinance.

Respectfully submitted, G athleen Comer Recording Secretary APPROVED BY: Barbara Sheldon Chairman Li Buffalo Grove Plan Commission Special Meeting October 30, 1985 - Page 5 PUBLIC HEARING BUFFALO GROVE PLAN COMMISSION Consideration of an amendment to Section 17.44.060.C.1.B. of the Buffalo Grove Zoning Ordinance. October 30, 1985 Chairman Sheldon called the public hearing to order at 7:43 P.M. in the Public Service Center, 51 Raupp Boulevard, Buffalo Grove, Illinois. Commissioners Present: Chairman Sheldon Mr. Goldspiel Mr. Krug Mr. Musfeldt Mr. Laskie Mr. Gal Commissioners Absent: Mr. Davis Mr. Demski Ms. Kaszubowski Also Present: Mr. Carl Hundreiser, Architect, St. Mary's Father Duffy, Pastor, St. Mary's Mr. G. Glover, Village Trustee Mr. J. Truesdell, Village Planner Chairman Sheldon read the notice of the public hearing as published in the newspapers and informed the audience of the format the meeting would take. She then swore in Messrs. Hundriser, Truesdell and Father Duffy. Mr. Truesdell stated the only addition to the B-5 Ordinance is that the Village has added the word rectory. Because the rectory is not listed as a permitted use it is considered a legal nonconforming use. The hearing is to consider amending the B-5 Ordinance to add a rectory to this district. Before the B-5 District, St. Mary's was listed as R-1 with a special use for a rectory. The B-5 District defines that this is the town center and it is the only area in the Village that will be zoned B-5. We are making the rectory a permitted use in the B-5 District. Father Duffy explained that a rectory serves as a residence and administrative offices. Mr. Hundreiser stated they wish to construct a one story addition to the rectory which will house offices and a meeting room. It will have the same exterior as the existing rectory but will need a variation to allow the building to be 27' from the right-of-way instead of the required 35' . Mr. Truesdell stated that Mr. Kuenkler noted due to the small size of the addition it did not increase the present detention requirements. The Village has looked at this as an addition to an existing building rather than a new development and since the existing parking is adequate to serve the addition, it does not need to be increased. The Village attorney felt that since this is an addition to an existing property there was no reason to have a full preliminary plan approval. We are dealing with this as an addition as opposed to a preliminary plan approval. Chairman Sheldon pointed out that if the back yard were used for anything other than open space there could be a detention problem. Chairman Sheldon closed the public hearing at 8:05 P.M.
