Orland Park adopts ordinance to annex 11650 179th Street and zone property E1

The Village Board adopted an ordinance to annex a Metro-owned parcel at 11650 179th Street and to apply E1 zoning to allow future redevelopment oversight.

Staff described the property as adjacent to the previously annexed Melka landscaping parcel and said Metro (the transit owner) holds the parcel. Under involuntary annexation rules staff said the parcel qualifies for annexation and E1 zoning will ensure future redevelopment requires rezoning and village review. Staff also noted the parcel could be redevelopable under new transit-agency rights.

Trustees had no additional objections and voted by roll call to adopt the ordinance.

Next steps: zoning and any subsequent development proposals will proceed through standard entitlement and permitting processes.
