Cricket stadium update
At its September 7 meeting the Village’s Planning and Zoning Commission (PZC) recommended approval of the Breybourne Cricket Stadium proposal, subject to several conditions. The recommended approval includes a Final Planned Unit Development (PUD) for Phase I for the cricket field and underground utilities, and a Preliminary PUD for the remaining phases. Prior to the approval of any future phases, additional traffic and parking studies and a sound analysis will be required. The PZC also recommended that the petitioner install a fence or sound wall along the west property line and consider relocating the stadium to the east or northeast on the site.
The cricket stadium is not on the September 19 Committee of the Whole or Village Board meeting agendas. *(Meeting date corrected.)
Move with the Mayor at 9 a.m. on September 30 at the Police Department and meet Village President Ryan Kauffman and Interim Police Chief Jason Bastin. Suitable for all fitness levels, the program will include stretching and walking, as well as enjoying healthy snacks. The Police Department is located at 3355 Woolley Road. To RSVP, call 630-551-2344 or email Julie Hoffman.
A nationwide program, Move with the Mayor works with elected officials to help improve residents’ health and raise awareness about the benefits of physical activity. Learn more about Move with the Mayor.
