Title
183rd Street/Orland Parkway and LaGrange Road Annexation
History
The 2013 Comprehensive Plan has identified the 5 acres of unincorporated parcels located in the I-80 Employment planning district as a regional mixed use development opportunity. In addition, the comprehensive plan states that wetlands exist on site.
The Village has identified two unincorporated vacant parcels and a portion of Orland Parkway that qualifies by Illinois Statute, for annexation through municipal ordinance. An ordinance authorizing annexation is now presented to the Village for consideration. An annexation study was conducted by the Village in 2007 and subsequently updated in 2022. In 2024, staff presented the findings to the Village Board. The Village Board, in February of 2024, directed staff to pursue unilateral annexation of several properties but indicated that due to potential for development in County or in Ta neighboring community, vacant properties should be annexed to Orland Park. The pursuit of unilateral annexation is being pursued for this property at this time.
Each area eligible for unilateral annexation was evaluated for annexation potential based on factors including, development quality concerns, fiscal impact on village, environmental issues, nuisance issues, natural resource protection, Village preferred land use and utility serviceability.
Therefore, it is recommended that the property identified in this ordinance be annexed and uses of the property be subject to Village Ordinances.
Financial Impact
Based on the 2022 annexation study.
Recommended Action/Motion
