Why Does Plainfield Need a Unified Development Ordinance?

The last major update of Plainfield’s Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances was in the mid-2000s. Although the code has been updated and expanded over the years, the regulations no longer fully reflect current development trends or support the Village’s growth goals. A modern set of development regulations will help implement the Village’s Comprehensive Plan while streamlining regulations, removing barriers to desirable projects, and providing easy to understand regulations for Plainfield’s future development.

Who Will Prepare This New Ordinance?

The Village has hired a team of consultants to draft the ordinance. Teska Associates, Sightline Planning and Zoning, and Ancel Glink have teamed to provide a comprehensive solution for the Village of Plainfield. The team will be working closely with the Village’s Planning staff and Plan Commission throughout the update process.
