Residence District, to a R-3, Single-Family Residence District.
Mr. Randall Kuras, President of RSK
Consultants, was in attendance to represent the petitioner. Mr.
Kuras explained that Mr. Nowak is the property owner of 3455 Grove
Avenue and wishes to subdivide his property to create four potential
lots under the R-3 zoning district. Three lots would be 120 feet
deep and 85 feet wide. The corner lot would be 120 feet deep and
100 feet wide.
Mr. Nowak has extended water to this
site and intends to also extend sanitary sewer. He plans on selling
these lots to pay back his investments on the improvements.
This rezoning would finish the block
of R-3 zoning and would not create a negative impact on the surrounding
area.

regard to a map amendment to reclassify property at the southwest

north of his lot.

has found that the Village does not need to retain ownership.

an utility easement.
