The Planning and Zoning Board voted 7-0 to recommend approval of several land-use changes in Niles. One case would allow a new industrial building at 7230 N Caldwell Ave with smaller setbacks and stormwater design changes than the zoning rules normally require. Another would allow a solar installation on rooftops at 6352-6430 W Howard St, and a third would change the zoning text to address permitted uses, including short-term rental and bed-and-breakfast rules. The board also advanced a major planned development and a property consolidation at Harlem and Touhy, but the excerpt provided does not include the final vote details for those items.
