The council opened a public hearing on proposed annexation agreements for properties at 5881 and 6207 Woodward Avenue. Staff explained both parcels are in unincorporated Downers Grove but lie within the village's ultimate planning boundary and the petitions request annexation tied to connecting to the village water system when the parcels become contiguous with village limits. The notice for the hearing was published July 20, 2026.

A commissioner stated on the record that his client owns 5881 Woodward and recused himself from participation in that item. There were no public commenters on the annexation items and the hearing was adjourned to allow the village to consider authorizing the agreements at a later active agenda.
