RE: Ev Cochrane and Associates, Inc. ,
Request for Rezoning of property
bounded generally by Airport Road,
the Gateway Center, east of Beverly
Drive, Oakwood Road, and the Chicago
and Northwestern Railway.
Honorable Mayor and RIembers of City Council:
The Planning and Zoning Commission during its regularly scheduled meeting of
October 8, 1976, considered the above request for rezoning and by a 4-0 vote
approved the following motion:
That we amend our original motion.
Those members voting aye: Shaughnessy, Nichol, Shank, Riis
Those members absent: Lex, Cholvin, Thurston
The affect of this motion was to rescind a motion made by the Planning and Zoning
Commission on September 10, 1976, which is as follows:
That the area presently delineated R-2 be R-1,
that the area delineated R-3 be R-2, the area
delineated C-5 north of the windbreak be R-3
and south of the windbreak (the northwest cor-
ner of Elwood Drive and Oakwood Road) be C-5;
and that time not delineate the area east of El-
Wood Drive but have the staff work out some
sort of C-5/I-3 combination that could be
worked out for that area, keeping in mind that
we don't want a C-5 area that would permit a
huge shopping center, that it would be a con-
venience center for the people who live and
work in the area.

After having amended its original motion or recommendation, the Planning and
Zoning Commission approved a new motion by a 4-0 vote which is as follows:
That the area on the east side of Elwood be
I-3, that the corner area be C-5, that the
west 300 feet be R-1, the next 550 feet be
R-2, and the next 730 feet be R-3, as the
staff recommended.
Those members voting aye: Shaughnessy, Nichol, Shank, Riis
Those members absent: Lex, Cholvin, Thurston
Following this second motion, Commissioners then approved by a 4-0 vote the
following motion pertaining to permitted uses:
That the permitted uses in the C-5 that we
are recommending be any and all uses allowed
in the C-5 ordinance with the exception of
hotels/motels and service stations.
Those members voting aye: Shaughnessy, Nichol, Shank, Riis
Those members absent: Lex, Cholvin, Thurston
The result of all these motions is that the Planning and Zoning Commission is
now recommending to City Council what the staff essentially recommended to the
Commission. Variations would include the Commission's designation of an R-1
district and to not permit service stations as a permitted use.
Please find attached a supplementary staff report on this subject along with a
plat depicting the location of the various zones being recommended by the
Commission.
