Fox River Grove Board of Trustees rescinds 2021 zoning variations after enforcement steps
Summary
On June 17 the Fox River Grove Board of Trustees approved Ordinance 2025‑16 to rescind variations granted by Ordinance 2021‑05 after staff reported repeated violations and enforcement measures including letters, tickets and fines had not resolved the issue.
On June 17, 2025, the Fox River Grove Board of Trustees approved Ordinance 2025‑16, rescinding zoning variations that had been granted under Ordinance 2021‑05, after staff described a series of enforcement steps taken when violations continued.
Administrator Soderholm told the board that the village had issued enforcement letters and, when problems continued, followed up with tickets. He said fines have been paid but the violations persisted, and rescinding the special use was the last available enforcement option. “Once all measures have been executed, as a means of enforcement, the last resort is to rescind the special use,” Administrator Soderholm said to the board.
The consent agenda that included the rescission was moved by Trustee Andrew Migdal and seconded by Trustee Jennifer Curtiss. The roll call vote recorded Trustees Jennifer Curtiss, Devin Hester, David Joseph, Steve Knar, Andrew Migdal and Kirsten Wall as voting “yes.” The motion passed unanimously.
The ordinance was adopted as part of the consent agenda; the meeting record does not specify further remedial steps or a timeline for implementation beyond the rescission itself.
The board moved on to other business and later recessed to executive session to discuss property purchase and sale, litigation and personnel matters.
