Downtown Development District Takes Shape


Over the last year the village board has been working with various segments of the community. To come up with a vision for the downtown area. Just recently after 5 public meetings we have adopted our downtown plan.

The next steps are adjusting our zoning, ordinances and developing an RFP (Request for Proposals) from developers to get moving on the project.
Some of the project goals are as follows:
  • Cultural Arts Center
  • restaurant district
  • New Metra Station
  • More parking
  • Improved traffic flow
This link will take you to the section of our website where we have numerous Adobe PDF files containing the complete downtown plan.
