Shabbona amends bed‑and‑breakfast rules, removes some licensing barriers
Summary
The board amended bed‑and‑breakfast and hotel/motel regulation to remove a high annual license fee and align food service and health inspections with county rules; amendments passed on a roll call vote.
Trustees approved amendments to the village's bed‑and‑breakfast regulations that remove an earlier large licensing fee and align operational requirements with county health rules. Staff explained the changes would allow licensed B&B operators to use residential kitchens within limits set by the county and remove duplicative local licensing fees.
The amendments also folded hotels and motels into the updated regulatory language. A trustee raised a typographical correction in the ordinance text, which was incorporated before the vote; the clerk recorded a unanimous yes vote on the amendment.
