Metamora board amends zoning code to allow accessory dwelling units as special use
Summary
The board approved an ordinance amending the zoning code to permit accessory dwelling units (ADUs) as a special use in residential districts, passing 4–2 after trustee debate.
The Village of Metamora on June 2 approved an ordinance amending the zoning code to permit accessory dwelling units (ADUs) as a special use in residential zoning districts.
Village Attorney Brunton presented the ordinance; Trustee Fred Glueck seconded the motion that passed on a split vote, 4 yeas and 2 nays. No specific amendments to the ordinance language were recorded in the minutes and trustees did not specify conditions tied to the general amendment during the meeting.
Supporters said the zoning change would allow limited ADUs under a special-use process; dissenting trustees voted against the ordinance. The board then moved to a related, site-specific special-use request for 100 W. Pine Street.
