1 A Professional Corporation 140 South Dearborn Street, Suite 600 Chicago, IL Julie A. Tappendorf (P) Ext. 182 (F) M E M O R A N D U M To: CC: From: Subject: Park Ridge City Council City Manager Julie A. Tappendorf 10 S. Higgins County rezoning and annexation Date: April 11, 2016 In March, the City received notice that the owner of the property at 10 S. Higgins had submitted an application to Cook County to have the property rezoned to an industrial zoning district (I-1). The City Council subsequently adopted a resolution objecting to the County s proposed rezoning, which was filed with the County last month. The City Council also discussed and directed City Staff and the City Attorney to publish and send the required notices to allow the City Council to annex the property to the City at the April 18, 2016 City Council meeting. After the rezoning objection and annexation notices were filed, the owner of 10 S. Higgins approached the City Council to discuss the proposed development of the property and stated that it would agree to defer its rezoning application at the county to allow the owner and City to discuss alternative ways to protect the City s interest in ensuring that the use of 10 S. Higgins would not negatively impact the neighbors or the City. The City Council agreed to defer the annexation decision while the parties discussed various options. These discussions are ongoing. Because all of the annexation notices have already been sent out and published, there may be individuals present at the April 18 th meeting who are interested in the annexation issue. Consequently, the Ordinance annexing 10 S. Higgins will be listed on the April 18th agenda; however, based on the direction from the April 4 th meeting, the Ordinance will not be voted on at the April 18 th meeting. Instead, the City Council will continue the Ordinance to a future meeting. The date of that future meeting must be identified in the motion so individuals who received notice or are otherwise interested in the annexation have notice of the continued meeting. Move to continue the Ordinance Annexing Territory Pursuant to 65 ILCS 5/ (10 W. Higgins) to the May 2, 2016 meeting. For purposes of this example, I referenced the May 2 nd meeting. However, if the City Council would prefer to continue this to the May 16 th (or later) meeting, it can modify the motion accordingly , v. 1 CHICAGO VERNON HILLS NAPERVILLE CRYSTAL LAKE BLOOMINGTON
