October 13, 2026 City of West Chicago Development Committee

The October 13, 2026, City of West Chicago Development Committee meeting included an informal concept-plan review for a proposed 140-unit residential development by 3KB Investments on an approximately 13-acre site. The concept includes 44 townhomes and 96 garden-style apartment units, with access from Juliet Street and a private drive. Committee members expressed generally favorable feedback; this was not a formal approval. The proposal would require a future land-use map amendment, rezoning from B2 to R-6, and major subdivision approval, along with further review of traffic, drainage, fire access, and easements. No public contract, purchase, bid, or spending decision was identified.

Staff also said an interim report on data centers and battery energy storage systems, including survey results and a framework for possible new regulations, is planned for the November 2 City Council meeting. The city’s new planner is expected to start October 26 and will coordinate development reviews and zoning work. No procurement action was identified in these updates.
