Development Review Process
The Village has created this step-by-step process to help ensure that all development reviews are
being performed fairly and consistently. While there are many variations on each of the following
steps, all applications/petitions shall be submitted to the Village, on forms provided by the Planning
Department.
1.Pre-Application Meeting
A pre-application meeting, while not required, is strongly suggested. It should be scheduled with
the Village’s planning staff as soon as possible in order to explain and answer any questions the
applicant may have on the Village’s review process.
During the meeting, staff will outline the application process and steps. Reviewing the
Subdivision Regulations, Zoning Ordinance, Comprehensive Plan and Official Map, and other
applicable documents will assist with the process. All of these documents are available on the
Village’s website: www.plainfieldil.gov or for review or purchase from the Village.
2.Applicant Submittal
Applicant submits all required forms, plats, plans, and letters to the Planning Department per
applicable application and attached checklist. Submittals must comply with Village Ordinances
as well. The Planning Department assigns a case number and opens a case file which will
include copies of all submittals, copies of all reports and/or letters, planner and engineer
comments and recommendations. All required items must be submitted together. Failure to do
so will constitute an incomplete submittal and may result in a delay or disposal of items
submitted.
3.Public Hearings
Annexation, rezoning, special use, and variance cases require notification of the public through a
public notification process.
The public notification process includes three (3) forms of public notification, as follows:
•Notice is published in a newspaper of general circulation a minimum of fifteen (15) days
prior to the scheduled public hearing meeting, with certificate of publication. (Completed by
the Village.)
•Service of written notice to adjacent property owners (excluding public right-of-ways)
as found in the Will or Kendall County Recorder’s Office by certified letter with
certified return receipts of notification. (Completed by applicant. A sample letter is
attached.)
The applicant shall submit certified letter return receipts to staff no later than the Wednesday before the
scheduled public hearing. These will be filed in the appropriate case file as kept by the Planning Department
and will be presented at the public hearing before the Plan Commission or Zoning Board of Appeals and if
necessary, the Village President and Board of Trustees.
•Posting of “Public Hearing” sign on the property. (Completed by the Village.)
4.Preliminary Staff Review
The planning staff determines whether the application is in proper form and shall not receive or
consider the application as filed until all documents are submitted in accordance with the
requirements as listed on the application form checklist as well as any other applicable
ordinances such as the Subdivision Ordinance, Zoning Ordinance, etc. Staff will notify the
primary contact, as indicated on the application, of the petition status.
Once a complete application has been received by all appropriate staff members and applicable
outside review agencies (i.e. Village Engineer, Fire Department, Police Department, etc.), the
designated planner schedules an appearance before the Plan Commission, typically within 30
days of a complete submittal. The Plan Commission meets the first and third Tuesdays of each
month. The primary contact will receive a copy of the staff report, as prepared for the Plan
Commission, several days prior to the scheduled meeting.
5.Plan Commission and/or Zoning Board of Appeals
The Plan Commission meets the first and third Tuesdays of each month. The Plan Commission
will review the application, all submittals, and the staff report and recommend one of the
following: approval; denial; approval with stipulations; or continuance. Staff will submit a written
report and recommendation of the Plan Commission to the Board of Trustees. All
recommendations of the Commission on any application shall be advisory in nature and shall be
subject to final consideration, evaluation, and determination by the Village Board. The Village
Board of Trustees meets the first and third Monday of each month. The primary contact will
receive a copy of the staff report, as prepared for the Village Board, several days prior to the
scheduled meeting.
6.Village Board
The Village Board of Trustees meets the first and third Monday of each month. The Village
Board of Trustees will review the application, all submittals, staff report and Plan Commission
report with recommendation and will approve, deny, approve with stipulations, table, or continue
a petition. All decisions and findings of the Village Board shall be the final administrative
decision and shall be subject to judicial review as may be provided by law.
7.Additional Comments
Written comments from the following roadway agencies may be necessary if the traffic to be
generated will be accessing roadways under their jurisdictions. One or both of these agencies
may require access permits. Check to see if your site is located in Will or Kendall Counties.
