Campton Hills delays 962-acre annexation hearing to July 15

Postponement to allow for more time to work with Geneva D-304

Hiring a new village administrator is a priority in the new year, according to Campton Hills Village President Barbara Wojnicki.

CAMPTON HILLS – Campton Hills officials canceled a public hearing scheduled for Thursday on a 962-acre annexation to allow more time to work with Geneva District 304, Village Administrator Mark Rooney said.

The hearing is reset for 7 p.m. July 15 at Village Hall, 40W270 LaFox Road, Campton Hills.

Called LaFox of Campton Hills, Shodeen Group of Geneva has petitioned to build 900 homes, 700 of them single-family, and allow for 440 acres of open space.

District 304’s interests were not included in the draft annexation agreement, though the development is within its boundaries.
