Glenview Named 'Village of the Year'

The Home Builders Association of Greater Chicago had dubbed Glenview as its “Village of the Year,” the Daily North Shore reports.

“Glenview is honored to be recognized for our development review process, which takes into account both the community’s goals for growth and the developer’s needs to get through the regulatory review process quickly,” Village President Jim Patterson said.

The association touted the village’s efforts to expedite permits through the Same Day Permit Review process and its continual evaluation and coordination between staff, regulatory Commissions and the Village Board of Trustees.

“Glenview’s extended history of doing much of its review, education and homework on the front end of a development proposal puts it in a league of its own,” said Pat Coveny, HBAGC president.
