According to the Village website calendar, tomorrow evening’s Zoning Board of Appeals meeting has also been cancelled. Apparently some issues regarding the Open Meetings Act called into question sufficient public notice. According to the Village website:
“The cancellation is prompted by Village concern that the published notice of the scheduled public hearing relative to the ZBA-recommended Horse Board Text Amendment could be deemed defective. To ensure compliance with Illinois law relative to such notice, the ZBA has determined to cancel the meetings, and to schedule the public hearing for a date certain in December 2014. Public notice of the public hearing regarding the ZBA-recommended text amendment will be provided.”
In layman’s terms the notice for the November 10th public hearing was not published in time in the Daily Herald.
