Purpose: The Village, similar to many communities, has a system of zoning and land use rules that reasonably restrict how land owners may use and improve their property. The Plan Commission and Zoning Board of Appeals (PCZBA) is an advisory body to the Village Board that promotes safety, health, convenience, comfort, morals, prosperity and general welfare of the public through these regulations. The PCZBA considers changes to the Village’s zoning and land use rules and, where required by these rules, evaluates applications concerning specific development proposals. Most developments in the Village do not require prior review by the PCZBA, and most applications that are initially reviewed by the PCZBA are ultimately subject to approval by the Village Board of Trustees.
Term: 3 years.
Meetings: Third Wednesday of each month at 7:00 p.m. in the Village Hall Board Room (40 E. Center Avenue). View the Village Calendar for the most current meeting information.
