Pat McNamer, who lives at the corner of Lee and Web streets, told trustees that he had been contacted by the ATF and told his home‑based firearm repair business is not allowed under the village zoning ordinance. McNamer said he 'only repairs guns and does not sell them' and said his license has been revoked until the zoning issue is resolved.
The board recorded that the zoning ordinance will be reviewed and that the issue will be researched. The minutes do not record a timeline for that review or whether any interim relief was granted to McNamer; no formal vote or enforcement action is recorded in the minutes beyond the promise to review the ordinance.
