The Planning Commission recommended changing parcels at the old school site on Walnut and Plum streets from R‑1 to R‑2 (multi‑family) with a 2½‑story limit; council recorded the first reading of the zoning amendment ordinance but did not approve a plat.

Council heard that the Planning Commission met May 19 and recommended rezoning parcels at the former school site at Walnut and Plum streets from R‑1 (single‑family) to R‑2 (multi‑family) with a height limit of 2½ stories.

Village Administrator Richter told council the recommendation is for a zoning change only; it does not include approval of a subdivision plat or site plan. Council recorded the first reading of Ordinance 2026‑05‑10 to amend the zoning map.

No final zoning action or plat approval was recorded in the minutes; further review and any required hearings will follow the ordinance process.
