Summary

Trustees approved Ordinance 2026-07 to modify zoning for mobile home parks to allow dealer classification; the park manager said Illinois law treats mobile homes as vehicles, which limits sales.

The Village Board approved Ordinance 2026-07 to amend Chapter 40 to address mobile home park zoning, including provisions to allow a park to be zoned as a dealer.

Zoning Chair Andrea Moore explained the change, and Loami Mobile Home Park Manager Rose Field told trustees that under Illinois law mobile homes are classified as vehicles and that classification limits how many homes can be sold. The ordinance includes signage restrictions; Trustee Todd Lawson moved for approval and Trustee Courtney Schmideler seconded. The board adopted the ordinance by roll-call vote.

Attorney Anthony Schuering clarified that designating dealer status is a secondary use for the mobile home park. The clerk's office will keep the ordinance on file and provide guidance on signage and dealer-related permitting.
