The Village incurs significant expenses related to professional consultant(s) review of certain applications. Such professional consultant review is necessary to promote the general health, safety and welfare and to carry out the terms of the Village Code.

This professional review involves activities and services which would be beyond the routine processing of applications. All routine processing costs, including mailing and publication of public notices, stenographic public hearing transcripts and standard building department review, are covered by the stated application fee.

A statement indicating the cost of professional review services will be issued when received. The reviewing board may suspend review of an application if fees are not paid within thirty (30) days of the Village’s statement requesting payment.

Please see Village Code Chapter 28 entitled FEES, REIMBURSEMENT OF PROFESSIONAL CONSULTANT. If you have any questions, please contact Village Hall at 427-2843.
