Title/Name/Summary
Annexation Of Surrounded Unincorporated Territory (Silver Lake Drive Property)
History
The Village has identified several unincorporated parcels located in both the Silver Lake North and Silver Lake South Planning Districts. The unannexed parcels qualify by the 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.
If annexed into the Village the Comprehensive Plan calls for the area to be zoned R3. The area is designated as a neutral priority annexation opportunity. Currently, the existing land use of the area are single family residential uses.
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 properties identified in this ordinance be annexed and uses of the property be subject to Village Ordinances.
Financial Impact
Based on the 2022 annexation study, no financial impacts have been considered.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to adopt an Ordinance entitled: ANNEXATION OF SURROUNDED UNINCORPORATED TERRITORY (SILVER LAKE DRIVE PROPERTY).
