Update – Petition T-2-24 re: ADUs Goes Before Development Committee 8/19/24

Aug 19, 2024

Hello Members,

Approximately 20 residents attended the 7/11/24 Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA) meeting where the County’s Paul Hoss explained the proposed amendments.  As noted in the meeting’s published minutes, 11 residents spoke, all strongly opposed.  Additionally, we believe approximately 16 public comments were submitted virtually prior to the meeting, again all opposed.

As part of West-Win’s (WW) mission to keep membership aware of issues that may be of concern to our homeowners, we distributed copies of the proposed petition and solicited comments.  Membership responded strongly opposed to the changes.

Note – Reference WW’s email dated 7/18/24 with Subject URGENT: Update on Proposed Zoning Ordinance Changes

At the 8/1/24 ZBA meeting they recommended to approve the proposed amendments with modifications.  To view the revised petition go to https://dupage.legistar.com/Calendar.aspx, select Agenda Packet for the Development Committee’s 8/20/24 meeting.  The petition begins on page 70.

  • The petition will now go before the Development Committee at their 8/20/24 meeting scheduled for 10:30am in Room 3500-B in the Jack T. Knuepfer Administration Building, 421 County Farm Rd, Wheaton.
