At this time the Mayor called for citizens' comments. All CITIZENS ' COMMENTS comments were in regard to the Fisher rezoning. Ron FISHER REZONING McLaren felt that there was not enough water supply and that developer should prove there is no risk or danger. Dan Hatcher felt that there was a fire and safety hazard, from a medical standpoint there could be problems for the senior citizens, noise pollution effect on biomedical equipment for treating patients & there has been a mandate from the citizens to review this again. Paula Davis is a foster parent with children on monitors and is concerned with the effect the shop may have on the monitors. Edna Knutson thought it was a muffler shop and now it is a paint shop. Wendy McLaren asked when a new alderman would be appointed in Countryside (Ward 4) . She feels issue should be resolved after a new alderman is appointed. Mayor Kittoe announced he would bring a recommendation to the next meeting. Attorney Kramer explained that the zoning was passed and that State Law and Roberts Rules of Order require that if you are going to move to reconsider an issue the only person who can bring that back to the floor is someone on the prevailing side. At that meeting a motion was made and seconded and the vote was 5-2 not to reconsider , so the matter, can not be done on a legal vehicle by reconsideration. The motion to approve was passed at a City Council meeting and a motion to recon- sider must be raised at the very next meeting of the governmental body. The zoning stands at that point. The Council has 2 alternatives - do nothing or if any alderman feels tonight that the zoning should not have been granted or that the motion was not proper, a motion to rescind the zoning can be made by any of the aldermen and must be passed by a 2/3 vote. Alderman Clark made a motion to re- FISHER REZONING ISSUE scind the zoning on the Fisher rezoning and send it back to Planning Commission for public hearing. Seconded by Alderman Gown.

Administrator Peck was directed to send a letter to the County in this regard. Dr. Scholle brought three different configurations for the KENDALL COUNTY COMPLEX County complex for their review and input. One Page 3 August 27, 1992 recommendation from the Planning Commission is that John St. be left as a through street all the way through the complex to enable the properties to the west to be developed in an orderly manner. The Commission also asked that on any plans to be developed that the entrance to 34 or any future entrances would be at the westerly edge of that property and not in the City. The Planning Commis- sion would like the City to draw up a resolution and present to the County stating that no more buildings be built on that property without Planning Commission input and approval since it is within the City limits. One of the reasons for this is that an Animal Shelter has been built without becoming before the Zoning Commission. The shelter is in close proximity to their property line and may put some limitations on property to the back side of their property. The Commission felt they would have liked to have made some recommendations as to sound shielding or buffer zone between the Animal Shelter and the property line in back. Alderman Sown made a motion that the City Attorney draw up a Resolution and present to the County indicating that any future development on that property must go through the same Planning Commission stages as any developer in the community and that streets be named as they are platted and not changed.
