PC#98-4
Requesting Rezoning from City"O"Office with B-3 Uses Allowed to B-4 Business Zoning
Chairman Lindbloom read the uses listed under B-4. Mr. Lee said his property has been on the market for
2 %years and he really would like M-1 rezoning but has asked for R-4. He stated potential buyers do not
want to go through the lengthy process of rezoning with no guarantees of approval. The Planning Council
was not in favor of the rezoning. The consensus was a concern of not knowing what business would go
there under B-4. Mayor Johnson said they would try to expedite the procedure if a business would come
in. Mr. Jones moved that PC#98-4 be rezoned from City"O"office with B-3 Special Use to B-4 Business
Zoning. The applicant owner is Robert E. Lee and the property address is 1111 S. Bridge St., Yorkville, IL.
