Plan Commission recommends Phase I approval for By the Yard's Brooke Court relocation
Summary
The Village of Bonduel Plan Commission recommended approval to the Village Board for Phase I of By the Yard, Inc.’s relocation to 105 Brooke Court, approving driveway installation, initial storage bunkers near Highway 117, a temporary storage building and a portable restroom to be screened from public view; the company must report back in April 2026 on Phase II.
The Village of Bonduel Plan Commission on March 31, 2025 reviewed a site-plan proposal from By the Yard, Inc. to relocate operations to 105 Brooke Court (parcel 107-16230-0030) and to develop adjacent 109 Brooke Court (parcel 107-16230-0010). Company representatives — Matt Baldwin, Tammy Baldwin and Kyle Baldwin — outlined a phased approach with work expected to begin in 2025.
The Commission approved a recommendation to the Village Board for Phase I, which includes installing a driveway on 109 Brooke Court, placing an initial set of portable bunkers for mulch and landscape products nearest Highway 117, setting up a temporary storage building, and placing a portable restroom on 105 Brooke Court. Commissioners and the applicants discussed employee prospects and how to conceal the portable restroom from highway view; the commission’s approval includes the requirement that a barrier be constructed to shield the restroom. Bob Shest moved to recommend Phase I approval; Robbie Woldt III seconded and the motion carried unanimously.
The Baldwins described Phase II (2026) as combining the two parcels via a Certified Survey Map and finalizing retail-store and warehouse building plans for approval, with Phase III (2027) expected to begin construction of the retail store and drive-through warehouse. The commission noted that additional portable bunkers, final asphalt parking and landscaping will be completed over time as funding allows. By the Yard is expected to provide an update to the Plan Commission on Phase II in April 2026.
The Plan Commission’s vote is a recommendation to the Village Board, which will take final action on the site plan and any parcel-combination approvals.
