IV. DISCUSSION OF RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD ISSUES
A number of subjects on the Committee of the Whole Deferred Items list can be
generally categorized as residential neighborhood issues. These items deal with
the overall appearance and character of residential neighborhoods throughout the
community. The scope of discussions generally deals with the appropriate level of
municipal regulation of the use and maintenance of individual properties as well as
the use of public rights-of-way throughout the Village. The idea behind these
regulations is to establish reasonable community standards for the use and upkeep
of properties within the Village.
The following items will be reviewed and discussed with the assistance of Village
staff:
· Limitations on accessory structures.
· Signage in public rights-of-way.
· Housing of commercial vehicles in residential neighborhoods.
· Housing of recreational vehicles in residential neighborhoods.
All of the above items have been raised in various context over the course of the last
calendar year.
The attached staff memorandum outlines the issues regarding each of the above
topics and suggests various courses of action including revisions to the existing
Village Code. In addition, staff will make presentations on each of these topics at
the Committee of the Whole meeting and help to facilitate discussion with an eye on
receiving specific direction from the Village Board regarding potential changes in
Village Code requirements and/or enforcement efforts.
