January 2022 – The Technical Report is now ready for public review! The report has been reviewed by both the Elmhurst Development Planning and Zoning Committee and the Zoning and Planning Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals. Now we want your input!
This Technical Review Report presents the findings of a technical review of the City of Elmhurst’s Zoning Ordinance performed by Camiros. The purpose of this review is three-fold. First, the review provides a more in-depth understanding of the current zoning regulations as we move toward drafting the ordinance update. Second, it allows for the identification of additional issues not identified during meetings and interviews with City staff and stakeholders. Third, it introduces concepts and regulatory approaches that set direction for substantive updates to be included in the new Zoning Ordinance.
This Report is not intended to discuss every needed change, as some will be minor changes that “clean up” the Ordinance and create a more user-friendly document, while others are more detailed revisions to be worked out during the drafting process. It highlights key issues and revisions that are substantive changes to current regulations and offers conceptual approaches to resolving specific issues.
