The Committee supported moving ahead with the Vernon Hills Industrial Park proposal at 100-230 S. Milwaukee Avenue and asked staff to draft the approvals needed, including an extension of the sound wall discussed at the meeting. It also directed staff to prepare ordinances to close the Town Center redevelopment TIF district and the Milwaukee Avenue/Townline Road TIF district, with future Board review expected later in the summer or early fall. A proposed car wash at 99 W. Townline Road did not get support from the Committee, so the applicant said it would look for other tenant options instead. The Committee also approved the minutes from its June 2 meeting.
