DuPage County Zoning Board of Appeals, 4/30/2026

The DuPage County Zoning Board of Appeals held a meeting on April 30, 2026, primarily to hear a public case regarding a petition by NGH C Inc. The petitioner, David Nelson, requested multiple zoning variances and conditional use approval to develop a group home with an accessory dwelling unit, greenhouse with retail and wholesale crop sales, and other accessory buildings on his property. The variances sought included increases in allowable building sizes, occupancy limits, and height restrictions to accommodate the needs of intellectually disabled residents and support employment activities such as greenhouse operations. The petitioner explained the charitable nature of the project and its intended community benefits. The board discussed the zoning standards and practical difficulties, and the case was set for a recommendation hearing on May 7, 2026, with a final decision expected in June. No contract awards, procurement decisions, or budget allocations were made during this meeting.
