Plan commission approves minor plat adjustment for Gateway townhomes on Shermer Road
Summary
The Plan Commission approved a minor re-subdivision for the Gateway townhome project (Shermer Road/Gateway Court) to adjust lot lines and swap the number of homes between two pads; the change does not add new build area and will go to the board as an amendment to the previously approved planned development.
The Village of Northbrook Plan Commission approved a minor re-subdivision for the Gateway Townhome project (addresses on Shermer Road and Gateway Court) that adjusts lot lines to reflect an updated layout of individual townhome lots.
Staff said the Gateway Townhome site work is complete and Lexington Homes LLC has acquired remaining parcels. The proposed change shifts the layout so that one street-front pad that originally called for five townhomes will contain four, and a rear pad originally designated for four will contain five. Staff characterized the changes as minor lot-line adjustments; all townhomes remain within areas originally designated for residential construction. The commission was asked to consider only the minor subdivision re-subdivision plat; other aspects of the development remain subject to board-level approval as amendments to the previously approved planned development.
A motion to approve the staff-prepared resolution (listed in the packet as Resolution 25PC-8) carried on roll call. Commissioners recorded their votes as follows: Commissioner Bridal — yes; Commissioner DeBartolo — yes; Commissioner Halperin — yes; Commissioner Morgan — yes; Chairman Alisco — yes.
Staff and commissioners made no substantive changes to the proposal and described the modifications as administrative lot-line adjustments to align recorded lots with the developer’s current construction plan. The commission noted that any other required approvals or variations remain matters for the board of trustees.
The resolution authorizes staff to forward the approved minor plat to the board with a recommendation for approval. No speakers from the public addressed this item during the plan commission discussion.
