company at an estimated cost of $1,250,000.00 on Lots 27 through 37, Block 5;
Eagandale Center Industrial Park No. 3i East of Lexington Avenue. It was noted
the building would contain 21 doors but it was understood that there would be
about 5 trucks in and out of the building each day. There was concern about the
potential of turning the building into a truck teraiinal, Upon motion by Member

Mr. Jerry Lagro appeared informally concerning a preliminary plan approval
for a proposed single family plat layout in Section 4 on a 7 acre parcel North
of Lone Oak Road and East of Highway No. 13. The Engineer recommended a 60 feat
right-of-way and 120 foot diameter cul-de-sacs. It was noted it was only a con-
cept plan and a more formal preliminary plat was recommended for submission. The
Planning Commission in general had no objection to the concept.
Mr. Carl Olson appeared informally concerning a proposed townhouse cop.cept
plan in Section 10 South of LeMay Lake. The parcel originally had 23.5 acres
with 8.4 acres of developable land exclusive of lake and the proposed village
road along I -35E. There was concern about access to the proposed townhouses for
fire trucks on private streets. The owner registered his objection to the instal-

was no formal action.
Mr. Carl Mooney appeared on behalf of his application for a variance from
the Ordinance #6 requirement to divide Lot 3, Block 2, Oak Chase #2 into two
single family lots. There was substantial objection by property owners in the
Oak Chase subdivisions indicating that restrictions on the parcels prohibit more
than one single family residence per platted lots. After considerable discussion;
upon motion by Member Harrison, seconded by Member Dembroski, it was RESOLVED to
recommend to the Council that the application be disapproved for reasons including
that the area had been platted for large single family lots, that the applicant
was aware of the general plan in the area, that there were restrictions allegedly

placed on the subdivision restricting more than one single family home per
platted lot, that the Council traditionally has opposed the policy of splitting
platted lots for single family purposes, because of the general neighborhood
opposition, it was also a fairly recent plat and further the frontage of the lot
would be reduced substantially. Those in favor of the motion were Members
Harrison, Dembroski, Hall and Chairman Marble; abstaining was Member Murphy.
The application of Van Mark Vending machine company for a building
permit for an office and warehouse 806x1201 - $150,000.00 on Lot 14, Bock 1,
Eagandale Industrial Park was then submitted. After review and upon motioh by
Member Harrison, seconded by Member Hall, all members voting in favor, it was
RESOLVED that the application be approved, subject to the Building Inspector and
Engineers approval and Ordinance requirements.
Mr. Virgil Schaaf appeared on behalf of his application to rezone the
East 400 feet of Lot 3, Auditors Siodivision #38 South of Highway #55 awl Ylorth
of Chapel Lane from A. Agricultural to C-2, Heavy Commercial. It.was noted that
a conditional use permit was granted for commercial purposes about a year ago.
Mr. Schadf indicated that he was unable to get financing for expansion of the
commercial buildings without the property being rezoned for commercial purposes.
The APC was concerned about the fact that residential zoning was recently granted
to the West of the property, it was only a year ago that the conditional use
permit was granted to the property, and that this would constitute spot zoning
of a commercial use in an area vertually surrounded by residentially owned
property. Upon motion by Member Harrison, seconded by Member Murphy, all members
voting in favor, it was RESOLVED that the Village Attorney study possible ways
to accommodate the applicant and that a special meeting be held on October 9th
to review and reconsider the application.
Upon motion the meeting adjourned.
Dated: September 25, 1973.
