Entitlement Process

Whether large or small, local or national, your project begins here: Entitlement.

Every project is unique in its entitlement request. However, there is a procedural process:

1. As a general rule, you should anticipate first working with village staff to address code requirements.

2. Following plan development with staff, the village's Plan Commission will provide comments at a workshop meeting to formally make recommendations to the Village Board at a public hearing.

3. Upon approval of the minutes of the public hearing, the Village Board will review and make a final determination of the entitlement requests.
