. , \ , <br /> Petition For Zoning Ordinance Amendment <br /> December 29, 1992 <br /> TO: Mayor Erik C. Brechnitz <br /> City Council <br /> City Plan Commission <br /> I, David A. Clark, Director of Community Development, hereby <br /> - in District and <br /> request that Section XI (B 1 Neighborhood Shopp g ) <br /> Section XXI (Special Use Regulations) of the Zoning Ordinance <br /> Ord. 3512 be amended b addin thereto the followin lan ua e <br /> ( ) Y g g g 9 <br /> respectively: <br /> Section XI. <br />' E. Special Use <br /> 1. Funeral home or mortuary <br /> 2. Ambulance service <br /> Section XXI. <br /> A. 1. (z) . Funeral home or mortuary in the B-1 Neighborhood <br /> Shopping District <br /> Existing zoning regulations list a funeral home as first being <br /> permissive in the B-2 Commercial District, which is the least <br /> restrictive of the two commercial classifications (B-1 and B-2) . <br /> Recent inquiries have been made relative to the possibility of a <br /> funeral home being also permitted under the B-1 Neighborhood <br /> Shopping District. <br /> Upon review of present zoning regulations and consideration of <br /> zone classifications for a funeral home in other Illinois cities <br /> of comparable size, staff is of the opinion that a funeral home <br /> in the B-1 classification by means of a special use permit would <br /> be compatible with other uses currently permitted. Further, the <br /> special use permit will provide for specific and individual <br /> review of each proposal. <br /> The amendment regarding ambulance service is only to specifically <br /> list the same under a special use heading in the B-1 <br /> classification. The existing special use regulations (Section <br /> XXI) presently list the ambulance service as a use thereunder. <br /> Respe ful s te , <br /> David A. lark, Director <br /> Department of Community Development <br />
