Summary
At the Feb. 12 meeting trustees approved mayoral appointments to the Ability Awareness Committee, multiple site/parking adjustments, an IDOT resurfacing resolution, and a resolution keeping certain executive minutes confidential; the board tabled a complex PUD ordinance for further edits.
HOMER GLEN, Ill. — Following a public workshop on a proposed ARIA development, the Village of Homer Glen board conducted routine legislative business Feb. 12, approving several appointments, site adjustments and resolutions and tabling one major PUD ordinance for additional review.
Appointments: The board approved Mayor Knight St. Trojicke’s appointments of Carly Bowes and Beth Mitchell to the Ability Awareness Committee by roll call. Trustee Schaller was appointed to the Environmental Committee and abstained from the vote on that appointment.
Land‑use and permits: Trustees tabled an ordinance that would have granted a major change to a Planned Unit Development and several related special uses (including a carwash, drive‑through and 24‑hour service station) to allow staff and the board time to prepare revised findings and exhibits. The motion to table passed and the item will return to the next board meeting for further consideration.
Other approvals: The board approved an amendment to a special‑use permit for outdoor sales and storage at 15830 South Bell Road (case HG2526SP) and granted a conditional parking adjustment to reduce required spaces for that property from 374 to 222. Trustees also approved an IDOT resolution under the Highway Code for street resurfacing and streetlight maintenance funded from motor fuel tax (MFT) funds.
Administrative and procedural votes: The board approved routine consent items including accounts payable of $247,949.81 and multiple professional services and equipment purchases, and voted to keep several executive session minutes confidential under Resolution 26‑004. Trustees also approved Resolution 26‑5 waiving application and enforcement of village code chapter 75‑5‑11 for specified building permit applications listed in the agenda.
Executive session: The board voted to move into executive session to discuss personnel matters, ongoing litigation, public utilities and executive session minutes, with a short recess before convening.
What’s next: The PUD ordinance tabled for further findings will return to the board at the next scheduled meeting; other action items will proceed to implementation as assigned to departments including Community Development, Public Works and the Clerk’s Office.
