Buffalo Grove hosts comprehensive plan workshop Wednesday

Buffalo Grove on Wednesday will host its first public workshop session regarding the village's efforts to draft a new comprehensive plan that will provide a long-term vision for the community.

The session is set for 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at Aptakisic Junior High School, 1231 Weiland Road in Buffalo Grove.

The purpose of the meeting is to inform the public of the plan's scope and process, and give residents and others an opportunity to share input at various interactive stations.

The village's existing comprehensive plan dates back to 2009 and has reached the end of its shelf-life, according to the village. The updated plan is expected to build off and tie together many past and current initiatives, including the Prairie View Metra Station Area Plan and the Lake Cook Corridor Market Study and Plan. It is expected to be complete by mid-2021.
