WHEREAS, the Zoning Board of Appeals, having considered in relation to the above requested zoning petition presented at the above hearing and at the recommendation meeting held on July 11, 2023 does find as follows:
FINDINGS OF FACT:
1. That petitioner testified that the requested zoning relief is for the subject 2.29-acre site with two (2) existing industrial buildings containing two (2) businesses, including Haus of Imports (high-end vehicle storage/sales) and D&B Fabricators (steel container fabricator).
2. That petitioner testified that Jeans Road was widened in 1992 causing the subject property to be legal non-conforming due to the building and parking setbacks.
3. That petitioner testified that they do not propose any new improvements or changes to the existing property and that the purpose for the requested zoning relief is to reconfigure the subjects lots so that the two (2) existing buildings are on their own parcels rather than bisected by three (3) different parcel numbers.
4. That petitioner testified that he would complete the proposed lot reconfiguration through an assessment plat.
5. That petitioner testified that his original zoning request was for Variations to reduce the existing setbacks and that at the time of the public hearing he withdrew his original request and amended his petition to convert the Variations to Conditional Uses with Exceptions, which is considered a “lesser zoning relief” and therefore does not require republishing/re-notice of the petition.
6. That the Zoning Board of Appeals finds that petitioner has demonstrated sufficient evidence for the requested zoning relief, as petitioner has proposed to reconfigure the existing three (3) parcels to allow the two (2) existing buildings to each be located on their own parcel and that due to the expansion of Jeans Road in 1992, the subject property does not meet the current setback requirements for the I-1 Light Industrial Zoning District.
STANDARDS FOR CONDITIONAL USES:
1. That the Zoning Board of Appeals finds that petitioner has demonstrated that the granting of the Conditional Use is in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the Zoning Ordinance, and will not be injurious to the neighborhood, detrimental to the public welfare, or in conflict with the County’s comprehensive plan for development; and specifically, that the granting of the Conditional Use will not:
a. Impair an adequate supply of light and air to the adjacent property as petitioner has demonstrated that the requested zoning relief is only for the existing buildings and improvements in order to complete a lot reconfiguration, and therefore, will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to the adjacent properties as no alteration or new improvements will result from the requested exceptions.
b. Increase the hazard from fire or other dangers to said property as petitioner has demonstrated that the requested zoning relief is only for the existing buildings and improvements in order to complete a lot reconfiguration, and therefore, will not increase the hazard from fire or other dangers to said properties as no alteration or new improvements will result from the requested exceptions.
c. Diminish the value of land and buildings throughout the County as petitioner has demonstrated that the requested zoning relief is only for the existing buildings and improvements in order to complete a lot reconfiguration, and therefore will not diminish the value of land and buildings throughout the County as no alteration or new improvements will result from the requested exceptions.
d. Unduly increase traffic congestion in the public streets and highways as petitioner has demonstrated that the requested zoning relief is only for the existing buildings and improvements in order to complete a lot reconfiguration, and therefore, will not unduly increase traffic congestion in the public streets and highways as no alteration or new improvements will result from the requested exceptions.
e. Increase the potential for flood damages to adjacent property as petitioner has demonstrated that the requested zoning relief is only for the existing buildings and improvements in order to complete a lot reconfiguration, and therefore, will not increase the potential for flood damages to adjacent properties as no alteration or new improvements will result from the requested exceptions.
f. Incur additional public expense for flood protection, rescue or relief as petitioner has demonstrated that the requested zoning relief is only for the existing buildings and improvements in order to complete a lot reconfiguration, and therefore, will not incur additional public expense for flood protection, rescue, or relief as no alteration or new improvements will result from the requested exceptions.
g. Otherwise impair the public health, safety, comfort, morals, or general welfare of the inhabitants of DuPage County as petitioner has demonstrated that the requested zoning relief is only for the existing buildings and improvements in order to complete a lot reconfiguration, and therefore will not impair the public health, safety, comfort, morals or general welfare as no alteration or new improvements will result from the requested exceptions.
