The Comprehensive Plan

The Village of Channahon received for a grant from The Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP) (link) for an updated Comprehensive Plan that included professional assistance from CMAP staff and a planning consulting firm. The Village was one of only three projects in Will County to be approved to receive this grant.

The grant money was used to develop a new comprehensive land plan. The award-winning planning firm of Houseal Lavigne Associates (link), along with the Village of Channahon and CMAP, worked to gather community input and formulate a draft of the plan. The plan was unveiled for public comment in the summer of 2019 and was adopted by the Village of Channahon Board of Trustees on Monday, December 16, 2019.

The plan not only provides guidance with recommended land uses to the Village, but will shape multi-modal transportation networks, open space preservation, zoning regulations, and provides a framework for development over the coming decades.
