Summary
The Village Board approved a restricted-species application to keep six chickens at 108 Lindenwood Drive, contingent on design approval from the homeowner association; the building inspector had signed off on the structure and the board recorded the approval.
The Village Board approved a restricted-species permit for six chickens at 108 Lindenwood Drive for Kristen and Jessica Zabrowski, making the approval contingent on the homeowner association’s sign-off on the coop's design and aesthetics. The applicants told the board their daughter joined 4-H and wants chickens for that program. The building inspector reviewed and signed off on the proposed structure and its setback from the lot line. Village staff explained that the village can approve the structure but the HOA maintains its own architectural-review process and may deny or require changes to match neighborhood aesthetics. The board moved, seconded and carried the permit approval with the HOA contingency.
