Vice Chair Yoo inquired about native plants being included in the landscape plan. Paul

Hoss, Planning & Zoning Administration Coordinator answered. He explained that there

will be a combination of native vegetation and other allowable species of plants. He has

however, spoken to the petitioner's attorney who would not have a problem with the west

side, which is adjacent to the Forest Preserve be exclusively native vegetation. To require

this, an amendment would be needed for the current petition.

Member Rutledge moved to add the amendment and Member Ozog seconded. The

Committee voted unanimously to approve the amendment.
