The proposed rezoning of approximately 37 acres of farmland near Interstate 65 and 101st Avenue into a light industrial business park is moving forward despite objections from residents in a nearby subdivision.

After about two hours of discussion, the council voted 5-2 to approve the rezoning on first reading, moving the matter to a second, and final, reading. Attorney Jim Wieser, representing the developer of the proposed Venture Park 65 development, reminded the council that if it does not take action within 90 days to either approve or deny the rezoning, the law requires that the Plan Commission ruling stands.

The developer, Mark Goode of VentureOne Real Estate in Rosemont, Illinois, described his plan to place two large industrial buildings on the site that would be used primarily for warehousing with the possibility of light assembly but no heavy manufacturing.
