The Village of Palatine approved a special-use transfer to allow the continued operation of an automotive repair facility at 2228 North Rand Road in District 3.

Staff told the Police Policy and Code Services Committee the request involves an existing special use originally approved in February 2009 that has been transferred several times. The current petition would formalize the transfer to the operator north of the site and allow the southerly building to be used for repairs while auto sales continue at the northerly lot. Staff said the petitioner submitted required documents and recommended approval.

Committee members had no public opposition at the hearing and voted to place the item on the consent agenda. The committee chair called for a vote and the motion carried; the item was included on the meeting’s consent agenda for final approval.

No conditions or amendments were recorded in the committee discussion. The village clerk recorded the approval as part of the consent agenda.
