After consideration of neighbor feedback, the Ward office supports the proposed zoning change from from B3-2 to B2-3 at 5689-93 N Lincoln Ave.
Process
All proposed zoning changes in the 40th Ward undergo a community feedback process. Neighbors are invited to comment on the proposal at public meetings and online. All comments and other feedback are considered and discussed by Ald. Vasquez and the 40th Ward office prior to any decision being made regarding zoning. You can find a detailed timeline/FAQ on how our community-driven process works on our Community Zoning page.
Feedback
The feedback for this change was largely positive, with neighbors citing support for converting vacant storefronts into new residential units. We are deeply grateful to all our neighbors who took the time to provide feedback!
