WHEREAS, a public hearing was held on October 4, 2023, in the DuPage County

Administration Building, 421 North County Farm Road, Wheaton, Illinois at 2:30 P.M. before

the DuPage County Zoning Hearing Officer and notice of said hearing was duly given; and

WHEREAS, a petition was presented at this hearing requesting the following

zoning relief:

Conditional Use to allow existing camper/RV to remain parked within the 30' corner side setback

(approximately 15' from corner side property line) on the rear driveway, on the property

hereinafter described:

LOTS 14, 15 AND THE WEST 25 FEET OF LOT 16 IN BLOCK 46 IN EAST WOODLAND

ADDITION TO WEST CHICAOG, BEING A SRESUBDIVISION OF LOT 4 (EXCEPT THE WEST 179

FEET THEREOF) IN C.S. BOLLES ASSESSMENT PLAT OF PART OF SECTIONS 10, 11, AND 15,

TO THE PLAT OF SAID EAST WOODLAND ADDITION TO WET CHICAGO, RECORDED JUNE

10, 1925 AS DOCUMENT 194380 IN DUPAGE COUNTY, ILLINOIS; and

WHEREAS, the Zoning Hearing Officer, having considered in relation to the above

requested zoning petition presented at the above hearing and at the recommendation meeting

held on October 4, 2023, does find as follows:

FINDINGS OF FACT:

A. That petitioner testified that the subject zoning relief is to allow an existing

camper/RV to remain parked within the 30' corner side setback (approximately 15'

from corner side property line) on the rear driveway.

B. That petitioner testified that she purchased the camper/RV in January/February 2023.

C. That petitioner testified that she parks the subject camper/RV east-west alongside the

existing shed.

D. That petitioner testified that she cannot park the subject camper/RV further to the east

(facing an east-west direction) meeting the setback due to the existing septic system

and possible impacts to the septic field.

a. That petitioner testified that she would not like to park the subject camper/RV

facing a north-south direction and at least 30 feet back from the corner side

property line because she would consider that an eyesore.

b. Furthermore, that petitioner testified that if she parked the subject camper/RV

facing north-south and at least 30 feet back from the corner side property line, the

subject camper/ RV would be located in the middle of the property and would

take up most of the subject property’s backyard.

E. That Hearing Officer finds that petitioner has not demonstrated or provided sufficient

evidence to allow an existing camper/RV to remain parked within the 30' corner side

setback (approximately 15' from corner side property line) on the rear driveway.

a. In addition, that Hearing Officer finds that not parking the subject camper/RV in

the buildable area because it would be considered an eyesore to the

petitioner/would take up a portion of the backyard is not a valid reasoning for a

Conditional Use and does not demonstrate the evidence required to approve a

Conditional Use.

b. Furthermore, that Hearing Officer finds that petitioner has additional locations on

the subject property to park the subject camper/RV, such as closer to the side of

the house, which would meet all required setbacks.

STANDARDS FOR CONDITIONAL USES:

1. That the Zoning Hearing Officer finds that petitioner has not 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 not

demonstrated or provided evidence that a camper/RV to remain parked within the

corner side setback would not impact or impair the supply of light and air to adjacent

properties.

b. Increase the hazard from fire or other dangers to said property as petitioner has not

demonstrated or provided evidence that a camper/RV to remain parked within the

corner side setback would not increase the hazard from fire or other dangers.

c. Diminish the value of land and buildings throughout the County as petitioner has not

demonstrated or provided evidence that a camper/RV to remain parked within the

corner side setback would not diminish the value of land.

d. Unduly increase traffic congestion in the public streets and highways as petitioner has

not demonstrated or provided evidence that a camper/RV to remain parked within the

corner side setback would not increase traffic congestion in the public streets and

highways.

e. Increase the potential for flood damages to adjacent property as petitioner has not

demonstrated or provided evidence that a camper/RV to remain parked within the

corner side setback would not increase the potential for flood damages to adjacent

properties.

f. Incur additional public expense for flood protection, rescue or relief as petitioner has not

demonstrated or provided evidence that a camper/RV to remain parked within the

corner side setback would not incur additional public expense for flood protection.

g. Otherwise impair the public health, safety, comfort, morals, or general welfare of the

inhabitants of DuPage County as petitioner has not demonstrated or provided evidence

that a camper/RV to remain parked within the corner side setback would not impair the

public health, safety, comfort, morals, or general welfare of DuPage County.

ZHO Recommendation to Approve

Development Committee VOTE (to Approve): 5 Ayes, 0 Nays, 1 Absent

WHEREAS, a public hearing was held on October 4, 2023, in the DuPage County

Administration Building, 421 North County Farm Road, Wheaton, Illinois at 2:30 P.M. before

the DuPage County Zoning Hearing Officer and notice of said hearing was duly given; and

WHEREAS, a petition was presented at this hearing requesting the following

zoning relief:

Conditional Use to allow the finished side of fence to face inward instead of outward toward the

adjacent property, on the property hereinafter described:

OF THE THIRD PRINCIPAL MERDIAN, ACCORDING TO THE PLAT THEREOF RECORDED MAY

7, 1924 AS DOCUMENT 177390, IN DUPAGE COUNTY, ILLINOIS; and

WHEREAS, the Zoning Hearing Officer, having considered in relation to the above

requested zoning petition presented at the above hearing and at the recommendation meeting

held on October 4, 2023, does find as follows:

FINDINGS OF FACT:

A. That petitioner testified that the subject zoning relief is to allow the finished side of

fence to face inward instead of outward toward the adjacent property.

B. That petitioner originally applied for a Variation for the subject zoning relief, and that

the request was converted to a Conditional Use at the public hearing, as a Conditional

Use is lesser zoning relief than a Variation, and that conditions can therefore be

placed on the subject fence to mitigate any future impacts on adjacent properties.

C. That petitioner testified that they have requested the subject zoning relief as their

fence contractor installed the subject fence incorrectly and that the wood fence that

they ordered was supposed to be the same on both sides of the fence.

D. That petitioner’s adjacent neighbors testified that they do not have any objections to

the subject fence.

E. That Hearing Officer finds that petitioner has demonstrated that subject zoning relief

to allow the finished side of fence to face inward instead of outward toward the

adjacent property does not have any impact on adjacent properties and roadways, does

not impact on drainage, and does not impede ventilation and light to the subject

property or adjacent properties.

STANDARDS FOR CONDITIONAL USES:

1. That the Zoning Hearing Officer 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 subject fence does not impact or impair the supply of light and air

to adjacent properties.

b. Increase the hazard from fire or other dangers to said property as petitioner has

demonstrated that they have received a building permit from the County for the subject

fence.

c. Diminish the value of land and buildings throughout the County as petitioner has

demonstrated that the subject fence does not diminish the value of land and that the

adjacent neighbors do not object to the fence.

d. Unduly increase traffic congestion in the public streets and highways as petitioner has

demonstrated that the subject fence is located behind the front wall of the home and

does not impact traffic.

e. Increase the potential for flood damages to adjacent property as petitioner has

demonstrated that the County’s Stormwater Department has no objections to the subject

fence.

f. Incur additional public expense for flood protection, rescue or relief as petitioner has

demonstrated that the County’s Stormwater Department has no objections to the subject

fence.

g. Otherwise impair the public health, safety, comfort, morals, or general welfare of the

inhabitants of DuPage County as petitioner has demonstrated that the subject fence

does not have any impact on adjacent properties and roadways, does not impact on

drainage, and does not impede ventilation and light to the subject property or adjacent

properties.
