Lombard Council approves new parking ordinances and residential zoning variations
The Lombard Village Board of Trustees meeting on June 19, 2025, focused on several key ordinances and recommendations impacting local traffic regulations, zoning, and alcohol licensing.

One significant discussion involved an ordinance amending the Lombard traffic code to establish a no stopping, standing, or parking zone on the south side of Main Street. Additionally, another ordinance proposed parking restrictions on the west side of Edgewood Avenue, specifically from Emerson Avenue to Maple Street, aimed at improving traffic flow and safety in the area.

The Plan Commission presented a recommendation to approve text amendments that would modify the setbacks for cemeteries located in the Conservation Recreation District. This change is expected to enhance the management and development of these spaces.

Furthermore, the Zoning Board of Appeals recommended approving a variation for a new residential structure at 1014 South Findlay Road. The proposed construction would be set back 31 feet from the front property line, which is less than the required 40 feet, indicating a need for flexibility in zoning regulations.

In matters related to local events, an ordinance was introduced to regulate the sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages for the Lombard Brew Fest scheduled for July 19, 2025, on Parkside Avenue. This ordinance aims to ensure compliance with local laws during the event.

Lastly, the board discussed changes in alcohol licensing, including a decrease in the number of Class AB-3 licenses by one due to a change in ownership at Uncle Julius of Illinois. Concurrently, a new Class AB-3 license was created for a restaurant under new ownership at 2360 Fountain Square Drive.

These discussions reflect the Village Board's ongoing efforts to address community needs through regulatory adjustments and support for local events. The board's decisions will likely influence traffic management, residential development, and local business operations in Lombard.
