COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
This property is a part of the Silver Lake South Planning District. This district is largely residential and includes an extensive network of open spaces. In 2023 the Village approved the Heritage Sites Strategic Plan, which is a master plan for all the historic sites within the Village. This plan describes “Boley Farm” as a “passive site”, meaning that hosting programming and events is not the main focus of the site. Boley Farm is intended to serve as an open space that also educates visitors on Orland Park’s past. This proposed work will allow the farm to continue this goal and is therefore consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and Heritage Sites Plan.
