DuPage County Zoning Board forwards petition 25 o 62 with favorable recommendation to county development committee

The DuPage County Zoning Board of Appeals voted 4–0 with one abstention on Feb. 5, 2026, to forward petition 25 o 62 to the county development committee with a favorable recommendation, the board chair said.

Board members spent several minutes on whether the petition met the board’s standards for a variance or special approval. Member Schultz moved to approve the petition, saying the petitioner’s switch from septic to connection to city water “alleviates a lot of issues.” Chairman Greichel announced any approval would be subject to the three conditions listed in the meeting packet; the conditions themselves were not read into the record.

One member said they initially could not support approval but, after reviewing the lot configuration and noting the existence of similar lots in the neighborhood, concluded the petition met the “unique circumstance” requirement and backed the motion. The roll call recorded Schultz, Moran, Ramon (listed as Roman during roll call), and the chairman voting in favor and Member Murphy passing/abstaining; the chair stated the motion carried and the petition will proceed to the county development committee with a favorable recommendation.

Before deliberation on the petition, the chair removed the Radcliffe Lodge subdivision (2601) from the evening’s agenda because it was printed in error; no action was taken on that item. The board also approved minutes for prior items, including PO 01 Sully’s Place (Dec. 18, 2025) and the Jan. 15, 2026 hearing on 25 o 62 Bort Zoo.

The hearing adjourned after the favorable recommendation was recorded. No public comments were taken at the meeting.
