Board defers Westwood Estates mobile-home-park license, sets Jan. 31 compliance deadline
Summary
Clerk reported two parks with violations; trustees deferred approval of Westwood Estates’ 2026 license and instructed staff and legal counsel to draft an order imposing daily fines after a Jan. 31 compliance deadline if the park does not complete required repairs, while other parks' licenses were approved or conditioned.
The Village Board considered renewal of four mobile-home-park licenses and removed item 9B from the consent agenda for separate discussion. Clerk Jane reported CityView and Scotty's passed inspections; Westwood Estates and Timber Ridge had outstanding building or zoning violations. Staff said Westwood Estates has a two-year running issue with providing an accessible on-site office, and progress has been slow.
Trustees debated enforcement options. One trustee recommended deferral of approval for Westwood Estates and directed staff to prepare a compliance order with daily fines to begin after Jan. 31 if the owner failed to install the required modular office. The board voted to defer Westwood Estates’ license with a Jan. 31 compliance date and to approve or condition the other park licenses as described in staff reports. The decision leaves open the option to revoke the license or impose fines if the contingency is not met.
