MOTION CARRIED Upon further deliberation the PZC discussed, in general, the increase in the number of these types of uses (sports, recreation and fitness) within the industrial park. The Commission had questions asked whether the number of these uses should be regulated, and how that could be done. Staff responded that this could potentially be done by reviewing the land use designations of the industrial districts in the Comprehensive Plan, through dispersion requirements and through either clustering them in certain areas or prohibiting them in others. But staff also indicated that these uses are already allowed uses within the industrial park and recommended that the market be allowed to determine when and where they could be established. Regulations such as these could restrict owners of these buildings from gainfully leasing their spaces. Staff further pointed out that the discussion did not directly pertain to the matter being considered and that the Commission focus on discussion related to the application. MOTION was made by Commissioner Castillo, seconded by Commissioner Dannegger, to receive into the public record the staff review of compliance of this Application with the zoning standards as presented by staff; and to receive the testimony presented by the Ap- plicants, by members of the public, by the PZC Members, and by Village Staff at the Public Hearing; and make these standards and testimony a part of the official record for the Ap- plication and Findings of the PZC; AND to recommend that the Village Board approve the Application PZC 2021-11 for a special use permit to allow for a new badminton sports training facility at the subject property.
