Divisions

Building & Code Enforcement
The primary responsibility of the Building & Code Enforcement Division is to review and approve construction plans for all applicable codes and consequently to inspect for all subject building life-safety, electrical, plumbing, mechanical, and property maintenance codes. This division works closely with the Planning & Zoning Division, the Public Works and Engineering Department and the Huntley Fire Protection District in reviewing plans and ensuring code compliance. The Building & Code Enforcement Division issues permits and inspects for familiar construction projects such as room additions, home remodeling, decks, fences, patios and other property amenities.
The Building Division tracks and monitors vacant properties and proactively enforces the property maintenance code.  This division also compiles a list of new building permit reports on a monthly basis.


Planning & Zoning
The Planning & Zoning Division is primarily responsible for reviewing and making recommendations to the Plan Commission and Zoning Board of Appeals for proposed land developments such as subdivisions, special use permits and zoning variations. The Planning & Zoning Division works to ensure that growth occurs in a compatible, orderly and efficient manner as prescribed in the Village's Comprehensive Plan and the Land Use Plan (adopted 11-17-11). The Planning & Zoning Division prepares long term planning studies and enforces and interprets the Zoning Ordinance.

The Village is in the process of updating the Comprehensive Land Use Plan, which is anticipated to be adopted in early 2024. Learn more here.
