Planning & Zoning

Planning and Zoning follows the vision and goals set forth by the Village’s Comprehensive Plan (PDF). As developments are proposed, building department members review them to ensure that they meet the guidelines set forth in the plan. In order to accomplish this, our experts must coordinate all aspects of the plan review including:

  • Economic development
  • Engineering
  • Land use
  • Landscaping
  • Legal issues

Information obtained through Planning and Zoning is passed along to the Village Board when appropriate. Other responsibilities include updating the Village map, maintaining and updating the zoning and subdivision ordinances which set the standards for development in the Village, and assisting the public with various planning and zoning questions.
