They would like to add a second business on the site for additional income. They would use the small building for the sale of balls for the driving range and the large building would be leased to a landscape business and the pole building would park the trucks. The trucks would be picked up in the mornings by the workers.
At this time there are no plans to enlarge any of the buildings but could in the future.
Henry Wong 5809 N Michigan who lives to the south has no objections to the landscape business but concerns what else could go there if the property would change hands.
Kubicek read what could go in a B-2 zoning by right and by special use permit. He stated that nothing industrial could be placed there without another rezoning.
Rochelle Wong 5809 N Michigan stated they have problems now with the golf range. They have balls and people on their property and the noise in the area is bad. They have horses and like to ride, her mom lives with them and she can not be outside and they find balls in the garden. She stated she is against it because of no control of what could be next.
Couturier stated they have been there 21 years.
The owner of the landscape business is leasing with an option to purchase.
Rochelle Wong stated that the site has had people leasing land for the past 4 years. If sold it could get worse. Landscape could buy and redo. Verified that there is no water or sewer on the site.
