u <br />August 6, 1969 <br />CAS E NO: <br />APPLICANT: <br />LOCAT 10 N : <br />ACTiON REQUESTED: <br />532-69 <br />Partridge Constru��tion Company <br />West �f 35W north of County Road BP2 <br />Approval of Rezoning from I-1 to (-2 <br />PLANNI�IG CUNSIDERATIONS: <br />1. Th� property in question as shown on the sketch at the left would consist <br />af 11 .?2 acres with a proposed public street ta be piatt�d in the westerly <br />side as shown. The applic�nt requested th�t the lar�d be rezon�d from <br />I-1 to 1-2 to allow the construetion of a saies and service building for <br />Mack Trucks� Incorporated. The property was originally zoned I-1 <br />wiih the intent of encouraging later more intensiwe industry on property <br />contiguous to the free�way, We are not aware of th� exact detai Is of <br />th� proposed dev�lopment, but the site plcan woulc� indicate the relat�vsly <br />small buiiding compared to rhe tofial site area. !t wou(d appear that <br />either ex�eansion is being allowed for ar that the property might be <br />divided fa�r further use. <br />2. The big question here is whether it is in the Vil lage's interest to al iow <br />the continued development of motor freiyht ind�striE�s on some af the <br />f�w remai�ing parce�s of industrial iand, particularl;y those contiguous <br />ta the interstate highway system. Obviously, it woulc� be b�fter for <br />the Viliage if the land could be developed for more� intensive us�s not <br />requiring the vast acreage of parking for the truck service relatec! fi�ld. <br />Having no detc�ils as to the nature of fhe proposed buiiding itself, we <br />cannot commer�t as to the extent to which this buelding might car•ry oufi <br />fihese objectives. Normaily, the burden of proofs is on the applicant <br />toshowthat it is in theVillage interest to rezone the land in question. <br />Additional information as fio th� type of structure propc�sed, and th� use <br />of the remaining land woulcl be pertinent. <br />
