Zoning Concern Form
To provide improved customer service and adequate follow-up information, all complainants must give a name and contact information. In addition, zoning concerns must have a clear ordinance violation. They cannot be frivolous, a private property dispute, or used to antagonize. The Village will respond to concerns of ordinance violations with site inspections and property owner contact. Violations of the zoning ordinance will result in letters notifying the owner of violation. Failure to remedy the violation may result in civil municipal infractions and fines.
