On April 27, 2023, a public hearing was held before the Village of Brookfield Planning and Zoning Commission, at which time the Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed all relevant staff reports, all required special use application materials, took sworn testimony and accepted evidence pertaining to the special use application for consideration of the requested special use, and all persons who desired to be heard on the matter were heard. 3. The Planning and Zoning Commission caused its determination and recommendation approving the special use to authorize the operation of a cannabis dispensary at the Property to be submitted to the President and Board of Trustees of the Village of Brookfield. 4. As a condition to the approval of the special use application, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended that applicant be required to eliminate the Ogden Avenue curb cut with a permit from the Illinois Department of Transportation prior to the commencement of business operations. If the Ogden Avenue curb cut was not removed before the commencement of business operations, the applicant should be required to temporarily close ingress and egress of Ogden Avenue from its parking lot. 5. On May 22, 2023, the Board of Trustees of the Village of Brookfield passed and approved Ordinance No. 2023-29, which granted a special use permit for the operation of a cannabis dispensary at the Property subject to the following conditions: a. Applicant was required to eliminate the Ogden Avenue curb cut with a permit from the Illinois Department of Transportation prior to an occupancy permit being issued; 2 Page 4 of 7  b. Applicant was required to install a six- (6-) foot-high, opaque wooden fence along the entire southern property line of the Property; and c. Applicant was required to work with the property owner to the east of the Property to repair the fence and make such fence opaque, or replace the fence on the eastern property line of the Property to match the fence on the southern property line of the Property. 6. On information and belief, subsequent to the passing and approving of Ordinance No. 2023-29, an investor bought the Property and leased the Property to the person who was to possess the cannabis license. The 1937 Group, Ltd. ceased having an interest in the Property. 7. SHRI Properties LLC is currently the owner of the Property. 8. On November 6, 2025, the Village of Brookfield Community Development Department sent notice to SHRI Properties LLC that the building permits for construction at the Property have expired and become invalid due to abandonment, due to the dormancy of work at the Property in excess of 180 days. 9. The last documented activity on the Property occurred on May 9, 2025, during a status update inspection. 10. The conditions set forth Ordinance No. 2023-29 have not been met, nor could the conditions be met because the special use applicant, The 1937 Group, Ltd., no longer has an interest in the Property. 3 Page 5 of 7  WHEREFORE) the Petitioner, Director of Community Development of the Village of Brookfield, respectfully requests that Ordinance No. 2023-29, which granted a special use permit for the operation ofacannabis dispensary on the Property, be revoked.
