Mr. Jim Norris representative of the residents on Indian Boundry Road, spoke of their concern of the increase of traffic on Indian Boundry Road and that much of the traffic exceeds the 25 m.p.h. speed limit. The residents are requesting four-way stop signs be installed at the intersection of Indian Boundry Road and Poppy Lane to slow down the traffic. He stated they feel so strongly about this issue, for the protection of the children in the area. Judy Abderholder, resident, spoke of her concerns for the children in the area. J. Bootz stated maybe painting the lines on the street by the stop signs may be of help also. The Board directed Attorney Harvey to draft an ordinance for a four-way stop at Indian Boundry Road and Poppy Lane/Timber Drive for the May 2, 198$ meeting. Mayor Latta presented a "Memorandum" from Attorney Harvey; Subject - Summary of Objections to County Case No. 3056-RM, Petition of Larry Cris Rury; Dated Apri1.18, 1988: That the President. and Board of Trustees of the Village of Plainfield have felt it necessary to file an Objection to the proposed rezoning of said property from an A-1 Agricultural District classification to an E-2 District (Estate) classification far the following reasons: (1) That there is no PLAINFIELD VILLAGE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APRIL 18, 1988 PAGE TWO similar or like zoning in the surrounding area. (2) Due to the fact there has been na submission of a preliminary plat of subdivision, the Village is unable to adequately evaluate potential storm water problems. (3) There are no effective mechanisms for assuring the enforcement of any proposed storm water management plan, either by the County of Will or the Village of Plainfield or any other public body. (4) That developers should be looked to as the primary source of funding for necessary street improvements and not to look to the general public or governmental bodies to subsidize said improvements (In this case, the developer has sought to have the local Road Commissioner absorb the costs of paving certain portions of Renwick Road.) Attorney Harvey stated he had spoke to Mr. Gordie from the County in reference to the Rury property and their storm water problem. Even though it is within the Village's 1z mile jurisdiction, it would be the County we would look to enforce any solution to their storm water problems. This is not a subdivision, therefore, we have no authority to farce them to follow our subdivision regulations. Administrator Pusinelli reported he spoke to Mr. Rury's attorney, Mr. George Mahoney, who stated the following: (1) Rury has chosen not to develop the 10 acres at the west end. (2) He is withdrawing zoning application with the County for above. (3) Fire Protection District "says that the storm water layout looks fine" for Rury development. (4) "Mr. Rury would be willing to make constributions to Plainfield Township an a per lot basis far various improvements". He would also make constributions to the School District. (5) Mahoney wants this "passed on to the Board" the reason is that Rury would expect the Village of Plainfield to withdraw it's objections based on the above "concessions" by Rury. After much more discussion, it was the consensus of the Board to direct Attorney Harvey to contact Attorney Mahoney that if it's tabled at the County level, that the Village would be willing to talk to them (Mr. Rury and Mr. Mahoney) to negotiate.
