    ORDER OF THE BOARD
    (by J. Theodore Meyer):
    This matter is before the Board on petitioners’ motion to
    extend time to file their brief.
    On June 3,
    1993, the Board
    accepted this case for hearing, but directed petitioners to file
    a brief addressing the issue of standing.
    That brief was to be
    filed by June 17,
    1993, with any response due by June 25,
    1993.
    Petitioners now seek to extend that June 17 deadline to July 2,
    1993.
    Petitioners state that they received the Board’s order on
    June 7,
    1993,
    that their attorneys have been preparing appeals to
    the appellate court and attending to a number of other matters,
    that they have been as yet unable to obtain a necessary
    affidavit,
    and that they believe that there will be no harm or
    prejudice to respondents or the Board by granting the motion.
    Initially,
    the Board notes that the response period for this
    motion has not expired, but finds that waiting until the
    expiration of the response period to grant the motion would cause
    undue delay.
    (35 Ill.Adm.Code 101.241(b).)
    The motion to extend
    time to file the brief
    is granted.
    Petitioners’ brief
    on this
    issue must be received at the Board’s Chicago office by 4:30 p.m.
    on July 2,
    1993.
    Any response to that brief must be received at
    the Board’s Chicago office by 4:30 p.m. on July 12,
    1993.
    Hearing in this case is scheduled for July 26 and 27,
    1993.
    This
    schedule will allow the Board to rule upon the standing issue at
    its July 22 meeting,
    so that this
    issue
    is settled before
    hearing.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
