Crest Hill council denies penalty permit fee waiver for 20635 Renwick Road
Summary
Council voted May 5 to deny a request from the property manager of a Renwick Road shopping center to waive a penalty permit fee after work was done without a permit; the motion carried by roll call with one abstention recorded.
The Crest Hill City Council voted May 5 to deny a request to waive a penalty permit fee for work done without a permit at 20635 Renwick Road.
Community Development Director Patrick Honesworth told council staff found work had been performed without required permits at the shopping center managed by Keaton Property Management. The company’s representative, Roger Chavez, did not appear at the meeting. Honesworth said the contractor has applied for the necessary permit and that staff recommended denial of the waiver request.
Alderman McGazell moved to deny the waiver request; the motion was seconded and carried by roll call. The minutes record one abstention by a council member; the motion otherwise passed with affirmative votes from a majority of council members present.
Honesworth said the permit is ready to be issued once the fee is paid. The council’s denial leaves the fee and associated penalties in place but allows the applicant to proceed by paying the required amount and obtaining the permit.
Ending: The council’s action enforces the city’s permit process; Honesworth said staff is available to answer additional questions about the application and the permitting timeline.
