    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by J~Anderson):
    On May 21, 1987, Geneva filed a motion for expedited
    decision of this variance petition~ The motion recites that the
    Agency has filed the amended Recommendation referred to in the
    Board’s Order of May 14, which Order noted that the 120 day
    decision deadline had commenced with Geneva’s May 7, 1987 filing
    of a Response to the Agency’s initial Recommendation,. The motion
    further recites that an early decision is sought because the
    Mimposition of restricted status is adversely impacting a number
    of development projects in Geneva~’
    In the latter regard, the motion refers to prepared
    testimony given by Thomas Taisma, Director of Public Works for
    the City of Geneva on May 12, 1987 in the regulatory proceeding
    R85—l4. This testimony and attached map was admitted as Exhibit
    55~ That testimony is currently not of record in this variance
    proceedings. While the Board could properly strike this reference
    from the record, the Board believes that the more appropriate
    course is to construe the reference as a motion to include
    Exhibit 55 in R85—14 in this record,. The Board believes that
    such inclusion will result in no prejudice, as a) the P~gency
    attorney assigned to this variance proceeding is also assigned to
    the R85—l4 regulatory proceeding and was present at the May 12,
    1987 hearing, and b) there were no questions asked of Mr,. Taisma
    by any hearing participant~ Accordingly, Exhibit 55 from R85—14
    is admitted into this record,.
    As to the motion for expedited decision, the Board has
    placed this matter on the discussion agenda of today’s meeting
    and will render a decision thereafter as expeditiously as is
    practicable~
    IT IS SO ORDERED,.
