    ORDER OF THE BOARD
    (by J. Theodore Meyer):
    This case is before the Board on respondent G.J.
    Leasing
    Company’s
    May
    7,
    1993 motion to dismiss and motion for sanctions.
    None of the other parties in this case have responded in writing
    to that motion. although there was limited discussion of the
    motion at the May 7,
    1993 hearing in this matter.
    In its motion to dismiss, G.J. Leasing notes that on April
    8,
    1993,
    this Board allowed petitioner St. Clair County seven
    days to file an amended petition, in order to properly allege
    standing.
    G.J. Leasing states that as of Nay
    8
    sic,
    1993,
    it
    had not received an amended petition from the County.’
    Thus,
    G.J.
    Leasing contends that the original petition for review is
    procedurally defective, that filing of an untimely amended
    petition will significantly prejudice G.J. Leasing, and that the
    County’s failure to comply with the Board’s order “jeopardizes
    the integrity of the Board’s power to impose orders.”
    G.J.
    Leasing asks that the County be sanctioned by dismissal of the
    petition with prejudice,
    or by entrance of judgment upholding the
    Village of Sauget’s approval of G.J. Leasing’s application.
    The Board initially notes that on May 5,
    1993, we granted
    the County’s motion to file
    its amended petition instanter.
    That
    order and G.J. Leasing’s motion to dismiss apparently crossed in
    the mail.
    The amended petition differs from the original
    petition only in that it properly alleges standing—-an issue that
    The Board notes that G.J. Leasing’s motion to dismiss
    was filed with the Board on May 7,
    1993.
    We assume that the
    reference to May
    8
    is a typographical error.
    r1
    r’~r~’)
    2
    was resolved in the Board’s April
    8,
    1993 order.
    (See Tr. at 7.)
    Thus,
    we find no prejudice to G.J.
    Leasing from the late filing
    of
    the amended petition.
    The motion to dismiss is denied.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.

    Board, hereby certify that the above order was adopted pn the
