Village Prepares FAQ To Brief Residents on Changes to Land Use Code Plus this Week's Home Sales

In comments to the community on September 10, Mayor Justin Arest discussed the revisions to land use code that were approved by the Village Board in July. The Village has prepared an FAQ to inform you of the revisions to the code that you can see here.

Here is what the Mayor said:

"After months of thoughtful discussions with Village staff, our planning consultant, land use professionals, land use board members, and hearing from the community, the Village Board voted on new land use code changes at our meeting on July 9, 2024, subsequently ending the six month moratorium. These code changes were a necessary step in addressing community concerns about the impact of development on stormwater. Our staff has put together an FAQ document to help the community navigate these changes to our code.

Our Village Planner, Building Inspector, and Village Engineer hosted a virtual Q&A session for the land use professionals in the community, which we’ve recorded and added to our village website as an additional resource. In the coming months, the Village Board will continue to explore potential code improvements in the areas of bulk and historic preservation."
