Board OKs zoning variations for IFF to build three-unit homes on South 5th Avenue
Summary
Trustees approved zoning variations for IFF Home First to develop four three-unit residential buildings on vacant lots at 1902, 2024 and 2032 S. 5th Avenue under PC/ZBA Case #18-002; the village will have no direct financial obligation specified by the approval.
The Village of Maywood approved an ordinance June 5 granting zoning variations requested by IFF Home First to construct four three-unit residential dwellings on presently vacant lots along South 5th Avenue (1902, 2024 and 2032 S. 5th Ave.; PC/ZBA Case #18-002).
Community Development Director David Myers introduced the application and the Plan Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals findings of fact and recommendations from March 27 and April 24, 2018. Trustees voted to approve the zoning relief; Trustee Isaac Brandon asked about any fiscal obligations to the village and was advised by Village Attorney Michael Jurusik that the village would not be obligated to pay developers’ attorney fees or settlements unless specific circumstances (such as a settlement favoring the village) arose.
The approval allows IFF to proceed with site development under the specified variations; the board did not discuss building permits, financing or construction timelines during the meeting. Implementation steps such as permit review and code compliance will follow established community-development procedures.
The board’s action supports increased housing availability on the cited parcels but did not commit village funds for the project.
