The City of Aurora Building, Zoning and Economic Development Committee met on September 23, 2026, to discuss a proposed amendment to the Waterford Planned Development District (PDD) plan description and a preliminary site plan and plat for a new self-storage facility at 1680 Montgomery Road. The developer, Macy Storage Company, presented plans for a three-story, 100% climate-controlled storage building with associated outlots for future commercial use. The committee reviewed security measures, landscaping plans, and potential impacts on neighboring properties. Legal counsel addressed objections related to zoning standards and property values, emphasizing compliance with city codes and prior approvals. The committee also discussed the history of the site, traffic impact, and lighting concerns. The proposal had previously been approved by the Plan Commission with conditions, all accepted by the developer. Additionally, the meeting included a review of historic preservation grant recommendations for various residential properties. Motions to approve the storage facility plan and the grant recommendations were made and carried without opposition.
