COMMUNITY MEETING FOR 2442-48 W. Moffat

A Community Meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, December 15 at 6:30 PM at the 1st Ward Office (2742 W. North Ave.) to discuss development plans for 2442-48 W. Moffat, which is currently St. John's Church. The church has been deemed structurally compromised and cannot be salvaged. The proposed project calls for a zoning change from RS‑3 to RM‑4.5 and B2‑2 to build a new church and parsonage, as well as two new all-residential multi-unit dwellings. The WBNA Zoning, Planning and Development Committee has reviewed the proposed project and made several suggested changes to the plans (see links below). A formal recommendation from the Committee will be sent to the Alderman’s Office after input from the Community Meeting is taken into account. This Community Meeting is an opportunity for area residents to learn more about the project and share personal input with Alderman Joe Moreno.

Zoning Committee
The WBNA Zoning Committee knows that architecture, design, and land use are central to a neighborhood’s success. That’s why we work to improve the overall quality of life in West Bucktown through well-planned, orderly, and beneficial development and preservation of its physical spaces.
Our committee is in charge of evaluating zoning change requests and making recommendations to the Alderman; advocating targeted commercial development of our arterial boundary streets; and working with residents, developers, business owners, and city leaders to ensure positive growth and integrity to the needs of the neighborhood.
Zoning Committee meetings are typically held on the last Wednesday of each month at 6:30 pm at Alderman Moreno's Office, 2058 N. Western Avenue Chicago, IL 60647. These meetings are open to all West Bucktown residents and interested parties; however, only appointed Committee members are able to vote on proposals.
We're always looking for a few good urban planners, business owners, architects, visionaries and land geeks to join our team! If you're looking to get involved, email us at [email protected].
