Planning & Zoning Division

The Planning & Zoning Division provides a range of benefits to our community. Firstly, they develop and implement comprehensive plans that guide the Village's future growth and development. These plans take into account various factors, such as population growth, land use, transportation, infrastructure, and environmental considerations. This ensures that the community's needs are met, and growth occurs in a sustainable and responsible way.

Furthermore, the Planning & Zoning Division works to establish and enforce zoning regulations that govern land use within the Village. These regulations help to ensure that any new development is compatible with the surrounding community and that the Village's character is preserved. This is crucial for maintaining the quality of life that resident’s value.

In addition to these core responsibilities, the division is responsible for reviewing permits for all new development and conducting various inspections to ensure compliance with zoning regulations. This helps to ensure that all development in the Village is safe, legal, and meets the community's standards.

The Planning & Zoning Division plays a vital role in promoting economic development in the Village. This may involve attracting new businesses to the area, supporting the expansion of existing businesses, and creating a business-friendly environment through zoning and land use policies.

Lastly, the Planning & Zoning Division engages with the community to gather input and feedback on planning and development issues by helping facilitate the Village’s Plan Commission and Zoning Board of Appeals.
