It was nothing earthshaking, just a way to help a village business and village residents.
In that way, it stood out.
At its Tuesday meeting the Northbrook Village Board engaged in a preliminary review of an application by Northshore Car Center for a permit to allow U-Haul truck rental and leasing.
The board sees this sort of thing all the time. Later on Tuesday it reviewed another business request for signage. Based on prior experience with the applicant, the board did not take such a benevolent view of the request as it did in the case of Northshore Car Center.
