All,
My brother-in-law and I have a 10am meeting Friday with the Alderman here in Chicago to see if we can get him on our side to rezone the property. His "policy" is that he doesn't spot zone property, but would prefer to rezone an entire block. This doesn't make much sense because the only ones who could use a commercial zoning would be us as there are 2 insurance agents and a dentist on the block who would never utilize or want this type of zoning.
We are going to go into this meeting and act very cordial and tell him how we would hire locals from the area, control traffic, give a facelift to this property etc...
This could possibly get rezoned without his help but we would need an attorney to fight for us and "light a flame" under board members to push through what we want.
Any other ideas I can show this guy to try and sway him on our side???
Thanks.
Bob
