P.J. IRMA Property LLC, represented by Peter Balsara, and Russell H. Root Declaration of Trust, represented by Carrie Hilton (owner), sought a zoning amendment for properties located at 3462-3464 S. Lituanica and 912 W. 35th Street in Chicago, IL. The application aimed to reclassify the properties from RS-3 Residential Single-Unit District and RT-4 Residential Two-Flat, Townhouse and Multi-Unit District to B1-1 Neighborhood Shopping District. The primary reason for this rezoning is to facilitate the expansion of a related company's business operations. The property comprises three distinct buildings. The proposed use for the first floor of these buildings is commercial, specifically for a retail business specializing in silk screen and embroidery apparel, including school uniforms, company clothing, and team sports uniforms. Additionally, the second floor of the buildings will accommodate two residential units. The building at 912 W. 35th Street was previously vacant and used as a motor vehicle repair shop. No off-street parking spaces are included in the plan, as each building is under 2,500 sq.ft. The City Council passed the ordinance on July 16, 2025.
