Tattoo parlor approved for new Palatine Road location after prior application drew objections
Summary
The Village Board directed staff to prepare final documents for a land‑use variation allowing a tattoo parlor at 1407 E. Palatine Road after the Plan Commission and staff recommended approval of the new site; a prior application for a different location had been denied following public comment.
The Village Board on Sept. 15 approved a land‑use variation to permit a tattoo parlor at 1407 East Palatine Road and directed staff to prepare final zoning documents.
The petitioner, represented by an assistant, said owner‑operator Artem Sharapovich plans a studio with four to five artists, operating by appointment and walk‑ins from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday. The petitioner said parking at the plaza exceeds the minimum requirement and the site is an 866‑square‑foot unit.
Nut graf: The application follows a prior unsuccessful proposal at a different location that the plan commission recommended denying after public comment; staff and the Plan Commission recommended the Palatine Road location and the board approved the motion to prepare final documents.
Staff confirmed the site has sufficient parking for its mix of uses and that the Plan Commission unanimously recommended approval with conditions. Trustees moved to direct staff and the village attorney to prepare final documents and approved the motion by voice vote.
Ending: The petitioner will work with staff to finalize conditions and the ordinance will be placed on a future meeting agenda for adoption.
