Michael Blu from Teska Associates, Inc.was joined by David Silverman from Ancel Glinck to
present the draft outline of the Lake Street Corridor Zoning Overlay. This area is located in
District 1 and a small portion of District 6. In addition to unincorporated area, this includes the
municipalities of Hanover Park, Bloomingdale, Roselle. The project has been going on for three
years and through this process they have tried to establish a baseline, for the character elements
that matter most, which are land use, landscaping and signage. They would like to create
consistent zoning to encourage development. This area developed over many years, which has
created a challenge. When they began this process they met with residents to get their input,
including concerns about code enforcement. He broke down the overlay sections, which include,
intent and purpose, administrative provisions, zoning standards, parking and loading,
landscaping and buffering, general provisions, signage, and definitions. Mr. Blu explained the
next steps are presenting to the other municipalities involved. In June, they should have the Draft
Final Overlay District. This will come back to the County and other municipalities, to
recommend to approve and adopt into the County Code. They are currently working with Ancel
Glink to create an Intergovernmental agreement that will. A brief discussion ensued.
