ORDER OF THE BOARD
(by 3. Theodore Meyer):
This case is before the Board on a February 5,
1993 motion
to dismiss the amended petition for review,
filed by respondent
Kibler Development Corporation (Kibler).
Petitioners Concerned
Citizens of Williamson County, and R.S. Blakely and Max Stucker,
as individual members of Concerned Citizens of Williamson County
(collectively, Citizens), have not filed a response to the motion
to dismiss.
Kibier asks that the Board dismiss the amended petition
filed by Citizens on January 27,
1993,
and accepted for hearing
by the Board on February 4,
1993.
Kibler contends that Citizens
amended petition alleges four procedural flaws,
and that all four
alleged deficiencies in the local proceeding are “facially
incorrect and belied by the record.”
(Motion at 1.)
Thus,
Kibler asks that the Board dismiss the petition for failure to
state a cause of action.
Finally, Kibler requests,
in the
alternative to its request that the proceeding be dismissed, that
the Board treat the instant motion as a motion for summary
judgment, and that summary judgment be granted in its favor.
The motion to dismiss is denied.
The Board fails to see how
it can determine that the flaws alleged by Citizens are “belied
by the record”, when the record of this proceeding has not yet
been filed with the Board by the Williamson County Clerk.
As to
the request that the Board treat Kibler’s motion as a motion for
summary judgment, the Board notes that Kibler has not pled any of
the elements of summary judgment.
Even if Kibler had done so,
it
Ot39-O6O~
2
is still necessary to review the record (not yet on file with the
Board)
in ruling upon a request for summary judgment.
Kibler’s
request that the Board treat the motion as a motion for summary
judgment is also denied.
Kibler is, of course, free to raise
these motions again at hearing.
IT IS SO ORDERED.

Clerk of the Illinois Pollution Control
Board, hereby certfy that the above order was adopted on
