A Presentation and Discussion on the Outcomes of the Village Hall  
Renovation Feasibility Study and Recommendations of the Facility Review  
Committee  
Overview:  
In July 2023, the Village Board approved a motion to advance the Police Station  
Improvement Project Option 4, a conceptual design option that proposed  
rebuilding the current Village Hall Campus with a new Village Civic Center that  
meets the current and future service needs of the Village, to schematic design  
(MOT 23-67). After further engagement with constituents and public feedback  
received by the Village Board regarding the existing Village Hall facility and  
potential for renovation, the Village Board created the Facility Review  
Committee (RES 23-309) and directed staff to engage historic preservation  
architects. Village staff supported the Facility Review Committee and Johnson  
Lasky Kindelin, Inc. (JLK), historic preservation architects, in preparing a report  
and presentation on the feasibility of renovating the current Village Hall facility  
to meet Village goals as identified by the Committee. Village staff, JLK  
Architects and the Facility Review Committee will present the evaluation’s  
findings and the Committee’s recommendation.
