Currie Motors Expansion Gets Approval with Site Modifications
Currie Motors on Lincoln Highway received approval from the Frankfort Village Board on Monday for a major change to its site plan, allowing for the construction of seven new parking spaces and a retaining wall in its vehicle storage area.
The project, presented by applicant Lennox Hill Construction, required five modifications to the property’s Planned Unit Development (PUD) standards. The board approved an increase in the maximum allowable impervious surface coverage from 84.5% to 84.8%. They also granted several waivers and reductions related to the size, length, and landscaping of curbed islands in the parking lot.
The Plan Commission forwarded a unanimous 6-0 recommendation for approval following its June 12 public hearing, where a neighboring resident raised concerns about traffic, lights, and noise. The commission urged the dealership to be a “good neighbor.”
The Village Board’s final approval is conditioned upon final engineering review and staff approval of a landscape plan that includes additional plantings along the property’s perimeter to help screen the commercial site from nearby residential areas. Trustees congratulated Currie Motors for its continued investment and property improvements on the U.S. Route 30 corridor.
