ir.�rr�i r � rr
President Stowell again expressed appreciation to all residents
for their interest. He then read portions of a letter dated
March 19, 1974 from Joseph S. Beale, Chairman of the Board of
Hawthorn Realty Group. Mr. Thomas Burke, Counsel for Hawthorn
Realty has continued to convey to Mr. Siegel, Special Counsel
for the Village, a willingness to Mork out a development plan
for the 3Sth Street property. An overall reduction in density
would have to be considered by the developer, and a new Land
Plan prepared. They have met with Mr. Joe Abel, head of
Planning for DuPage County and are now considering his re-
commendations concerning alternate housing types other than
townhouse. They will meet with Sasaki, Walker & Assoc. in
San Francisco to prepare a new Land Plan for the Oak Brook
portion of the development and blend the impact of this on the
balance of the development of the project with the County.
Mr. Beale felt the above process will take approximately 30
days, and requested that the Board refrain from snaking a
decision until after that time. They then hoped to present a
plan which would receive the approval of the Board of Trustees
and the citizens of Oak Brcok.
Trustee Rush moved - seconded by Trustee Hayes...
That the request by Hawthorn Realty Company for rezoning
from R -1 to a planned development, subject to annexation and
an annexation agreement, be denied, with a recommendation by
this Board that the developer resubmit an application for
rezoning of that property now within the corporate limits
in conformance with the Zoning Ordinance of the Village of
Oak Brook, and that the Village Board further declare that
it would not oppose reasonable rezoning of the adjacent unin-
corporated area within DuPage County for a moderate residential
density.
