DRINKALL ET AL. PRE-ANNEXATION AGREEMENT DISCUSSION
Planner Durbin stated to the Board that the applicants are pursuing a Will County Rezoning
which is subject to Village consideration because it is within one and one-half miles of the
current Village boundary. The rezoning application considered by the Village Board at the
November 20, 1995 Board meeting, Staff identified concerns related to this rezoning and
provided a report from the Plan Commission. The Board directed the applicants to work
with staff toward preparing apre-annexation agreement that could mitigate the concerns
regarding the rezoning as presented by Staff. Staff presented the following findings for
consideration by the Plan Commission: 1. This rezoning could be described as spot zoning
and therefore should be discouraged; 2. The rezoning application is contrary to the
provisions of the Intergovernmental Agreement between the Village of Plainfield and Will
County and NIPC's Areawide Water Quality Plan. 3. The proposed development would
result in inefficiencies in the Village's Utility Planning; 4. The proposed development does
not meet the provisions of the Draft Comprehensive Plan; 5. The proposed development
does not meet the provisions of the Draft Transportation Plan; Staff recommended, for the
above reasons, that the Plan Commission recommend that the Village forward a Letter of
Objection to the Will County Land Use Department. The Plan Commission disagreed with
staff's analysis and recommendation. The Plan Commission supported the following
findings: 1. The rezoning would not provide a negative impact on surrounding properties;
2. The rezoning is an effort to address existing conditions at the property. The applicants
indicate a desire to design the easterly house so as to allow for a side load garage that will
allow for relation of the driveway in the future. This is proposed as an additional means of
addressing the impact of 127th Street an the property.
