Village Government
Planning Board
The Planning Board is an advisory board to the Mayor and Board of Trustees. There are six members of the Board including one alternate member. The Board focuses on many issues that effect the Village and has no elected officials as voting members. Planning Board members are appointed for five-year terms. The Board is independent of any reporting relationship to the Mayor or Board of Trustees, other than financial matters.
Among the issues that come before the Planning Board include long range planning for facilities and services, infrastructure, potential annexation, industrial development, cooperative ventures with other municipalities, and addressing needs and concerns submitted by residents and businesses.
To appear before the Village Planning Board, you should contact the Village Clerk-Treasurer by the Thursday prior to each monthly meeting. The Board normally meets the first Tuesday of each month at 7:30 PM.
