McHenry City Council voted to approve a conditional use permit allowing assembly use at 1501 South Illinois Route 31, the property formerly occupied by Bulldog's restaurant, enabling its conversion into a banquet facility.
Director Palorecki introduced the petition and noted the petitioner already had an approved liquor license for the property. Alderman Glenn moved to grant the CUP for assembly use; Alderman Bassi seconded. Council members said the proposed use would fill a need for banquet/assembly space in McHenry and called it an asset to the community.
The clerk recorded a unanimous roll call 'Yes' from members present. The council did not attach additional conditions in the meeting record; staff will proceed with administrative steps required to implement the conditional use permit.
