Plan commission files 2025 annual report, asks members for initiative ideas for 2027
Summary
The commission reviewed and approved its 2025 annual report summary and discussed submitting future initiatives for 2027 work; staff reminded commissioners that initiative submissions are due to the village manager by January 31 (with dissemination in March) and suggested a February check-in if members wish to add items.
Staff presented the Plan Commission’s 2025 annual report, noting seven meetings convened during the year and a concentrated set of meetings (six) on the housing-opportunities initiative. The report highlights the commission’s recommendations, zoning reviews and other work completed during the year.
Staff explained how initiatives are submitted for the next planning cycle: the village manager receives commission submissions and compiles a list for the Board to prioritize; staff said the standard process favors early submission, but noted flexibility if commissioners want to add proposals before the end of February. Commissioners discussed potential initiatives — such as reviewing the DPW lot, design-review scope, and coordinating joint meetings with other bodies — and asked staff for a short prompt/form to guide initiative submissions.
The commission directed staff to solicit potential initiatives and indicated willingness to schedule a February meeting to finalize any additional items for submission to the village manager.
