When the property was in Homewood, the Village Board had the authority to determine zoning of the property. As the intent to develop the golf course into a trucking distribution center would require rezoning from Public Space and Open Lands to Limited Manufacturing, the Homewood Board of Trustees were the number one political target for preserving the CCC greenspace. Though the property has been disconnected, there is a possibility DP may try to reconnect to Homewood if it thinks there may be less resistance to the proposal from the community, the Planning and Zoning Commission, and the Village Board in the future.

If you live in Homewood, please contact Mayor Hofeld and all the Board members to let them know they need to preserve our greenspace.
