OF 3rd. PM..
WHEREAS, the entire boundary of the subject property is within 1 1/2 miles of the corporate
limits of the Village of Lemont; and
WHEREAS, the proposed rezoning would constitute "spot" zoning as no other property
nearby is zoned for multiple family uses, but rather for single family development; and
WHEREAS, the Village Comprehensive Plan indicates that this area is designated for low
density residential uses, not multiple family uses; and
WHEREAS, the new Cook County Comprehensive Plan indicates that this area is designated
for single family uses, not multiple family; and
WHEREAS, the petitioner has not proposed improvements to Parker Road which is a narrow,
substandard street in poor condition which cannot handle additional vehicular traffic without
significant improvement; and
WHEREAS, the Village will require such improvement as part of the Lemont Subdivision
Regulations which are enforceable because the subject property is within 1 1/2 miles of the Village of
Lemont; and
WHEREAS, the neighborhood is predominantly single family in nature; and

WHEREAS, the rezoning would substantially alter the character of the neighborhood and may
cause harm to the values of property within the vicinity of the proposed rezoning.

Village of Lemont, Counties of Cook, DuPage and WM, State of Illinois, that the Village of Lemont
hereby objects to the requests for rezoning and special use which is the subject of Cook County
