Campton Hills - The Devil is in Their Details

Larry Bettag Illinois FHA Specialist: Mortgage Company in Saint Charles, IL

Got this from a leader who took notes and observed more ridiculousness from "Campton" bureaucrats (My comments are in parens or italics):

If you were wondering what went on last night at the Planning Commission hearing, the Community Center was full (not standing room only, but a crowd). After an hour of planning commission business including re-hash regarding Norton Lakes Subdivision the Public hearing was held.

Big thanks to unincorporated La Fox and Elburn residents who showed up and voiced their opposition to the annexation and zoning changes. The planning commission heard from 5 different people, all saying the same thing. We don't want Campton Hills to annex the land. Drew Frasz stated that .....we had a handshake deal with Preserve Campton not to go further South than Route 38...... first it was Mongerson Park, now this one, what's next?...... He stated that he had heard that there are at least 5 properties talking with the Village that are South of 38.

He was reminding that this hearing is on the zoning change not the annexation.

Another speaker said that they feel like they did with Elgin . . with Campton Hills looking to annex and rezone farmland into PUDs. The Planning Commission didn't like hearing that.

SAY WHAT???? MORE OF THE SAME. CAMPTON HAS BECOME THE ENEMY THAT THEY HATED

Unfortunately, the legal annexation case (09 MR 0531) has already quietly had it's public hearing in court early in November, before any of us knew what was going on.

The residents of La Fox/Elburn were basically saying the same thing, . . . we are happy with what we have, we want to be unincorporated, we want the county and the Sheriff. We want our to preserve our rural way of life, we want it to keep farmland not residences. (This has been my biggest beef all along. I moved to the country to stay out of the city. These A-holes said we're better to determine how you should use your property than you, the property owner. This just pisses me off at their arrogance)

That is except for the petitioner Stephen Ciampi, who wants the services provided by the Campton Hills Police Department, he wants someone to slow down the traffic on Harley, and to be there for him. He mentioned he pursued the Village not the other way around, although he did note that when the road was being worked on by Campton Township earlier this year, one of the guys working on the road and culvert told him he should look into becoming part of the Village. (Hey....it's a free country....he may not be smart, but he has his rights).

Background: A little over 5 years ago Mr. Ciampi bought this property and requested a zoning change from Kane County from F to F1 so he could build his residence on 3.75 acre parcel. Now he is looking to Annex into Campton Hills and receive PUD zoning for up to 6 additional lots on 25 acres. Contrary to Campton Hill's Comp plan, which shows this area as agriculture which is the same classification as Kane County's 2030 plan. (Oh...wait...he is smart. He's gone to bed with the enemy and wants to develop land....hmmmmmmm. I thought that Campton hated developers and developments....it's a little more clear now).

The Planning Commission did not make any recommendations to the Village Board regarding the rezoning of this piece of land, since they had received a 28 page land use opinion report late yesterday, just before the hearing. What will the Village board do without receiving a recommendation when considering the annexation?

It was mentioned by Village Attorney Braithwaite that the Public Hearing on the annexation will be December 1 at the Village Board meeting. Please mark your calendars, if you oppose what Campton Hills is trying to do, you need to show up and voice your opinion.

Please Please Please show up on December 1 and let them know.
