Where do Iacovelli, Jacobsen and Zubak stand on commercial horse boarding?

“Your Barrington Hills” Trojan Horsemen, Louis Iacovelli, Paula Jacobsen and Robert Zubak, candidates in tomorrow’s election, have all been mum on the topic of commercial horse boarding and equestrian business activity in the village.  There has been no real mention of the topic, save for a vague reference to equestrian heritage.

But all three of these individuals communicated their views, on the official Village record, to the Zoning Board of Appeals last summer. Iacovelli, Jacobsen and Zubak all opposed the Drury amendment and expressed their strong support for the flawed and biased Anderson II Ordinance, which was repealed by the Village Board of Trustees in December 2016.  Iacovelli & Jacobsen both signed the J.R. Davis petition form.  Zubak went a bit further, submitting a personal letter via email.

Zubak’s feelings were summed up, in his own words, ” …my wife and I would rather live next to a boarding/training facility that [sic] live with the freight trains that run through the back of our property at all hours of the day and night.”

Ah, Mr. Zubak, that is your choice.  But the rest of us have our own choices to make as far as protecting the peace and quiet of our homes and properties.

Here are copies of their submissions.
