DuPage County zoning board denies Mamalotte conditional-use petition
Summary
The DuPage County Zoning Board of Appeals voted unanimously to deny a petition seeking conditional-use zoning relief for the Mamalotte proposal, concluding the petitioner did not meet the standard required for conditional use.
The DuPage County Zoning Board of Appeals voted 6-0 to deny the Mamalotte conditional-use petition after members said the petitioner failed to provide sufficient evidence to meet the standard for conditional use.
The board's decision came after members discussed the application and expressed concerns about the scope of zoning relief requested and the adequacy of the petitioner’s presentation. Chairman Cartel called for a motion to deny, and the board completed a roll-call vote with all voting members saying “aye.”
Board members described the requested zoning relief as “very, very significant” and noted “virtually no significant presentation” was made in support of it. One member said there was “too much there for green space” and suggested the petitioner could present a stronger plan. The transcript records members Schultz, Moran, Romain, Jurak, Murphy and Chairman Cartel voting in favor of denial.
The board’s announcement did not include an approved alternative or conditions; the motion recorded was to deny the petition outright. No additional motions to refer, table, or request further information were recorded during the item.
The denial means the petitioner’s request for conditional-use relief will not proceed from this board. The board did not identify a next step in the meeting record and provided no timeline for any potential reapplication.
