SUBJECT: An Ordinance Granting a Special Use for a Preliminary Planned Unit
Development (PUD) and Plat for a 4-Unit Townhome Development in the
D-D District at the Northwest Corner of Grant and Illinois Street in Lemont,
IL (609 Illinois Street)

SUMMARY/BACKGROUND
John Grele is requesting approval of a Preliminary Planned Unit Development (PUD) with the
creation of a new lot to allow a 4-unit townhome on vacant land located approximately at 609
Illinois Street, the northwest corner of Grant and Illinois Streets in the D-D, Downtown District.
Townhomes are an allowed use in the D-D, but the new lot created for development is greater
than 10,000 square -feet, requiring a PUD and there are several departures from the zoning
standards within the PUD.
ANALYSIS

The future land use map in the Lemont 2030 Comprehensive Plan designates the subject
property as Mixed Use (MU).

2024 and continued to the regularly scheduled PZC meeting on May 1, 2024. The PZC failed

scheduled meeting on May 20, 2024.
