# Geneva Planning & Zoning Commission Oct. 22, 2026

The Geneva Planning & Zoning Commission held a concept review on October 22, 2026, for NorthPoint Development’s proposed 44-unit affordable senior housing project at the vacant lot on Blackberry Drive. The three-story project would serve residents age 55 and older, with units serving households at 30%–80% of area median income, and would require a special-use permit under the site’s B1 zoning. The applicant described potential amenities, including an elevator, fitness and community rooms, outdoor space, and on-site management, and said it intends to pursue Low-Income Housing Tax Credit financing. No contract award, purchase, or procurement vote occurred; the commission took no action to approve the project.

Commissioners generally supported the concept and offered feedback for a future formal review, including building placement, landscaping and outdoor amenities, parking and visitor access, drainage, and connections to nearby residential areas and transit. The applicant said it would consider revisions and proceed with its tax-credit application. The commission also noted that other previously reviewed items were expected before City Council on November 2; no procurement activity was identified at this meeting.
