I hereby formally object to the proposed special land use application scheduled for public hearing on September 2, 2025, regarding parcel #26-06-27-300-023 (formerly Rite Aid). I am concerned about the potential adverse environmental and non-environmental impacts that this development may have on my properties and the surrounding area. Specifically, I request that the Village provide comprehensive documentation and guarantees that all necessary environmental assessments have been conducted, including soil contamination, groundwater protection, air and noise pollution studies, and storm water management. Furthermore, I want assurance that traffic impacts, property values, zoning compatibility, and safety considerations have been thoroughly evaluated. I also ask for written guarantees that proper mitigation measures and ongoing monitoring will be in place to prevent any future harm or adverse effects to my properties as a result of this development. In addition, I respectfully request that the public hearing be postponed until all requested studies and environmental assessments are made available for review to ensure due process and protect the rights of adjacent property owners. Please include this letter in the official record for this application. I trust the Commission will carefully consider these concerns and ensure the proposed land use meets all environmental, safety, and community standards before any approval is granted. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I can be contacted via email at ravindermakkar@hotmail.com or by mail at my address above.
