The Wilmette Village Board recently gave two businesses zoning relief to open in Westlake Plaza, moving one trustees to suggest the village reexamine its parking requirements for leased spaces. The Wilmette Village Board is reexamining village parking requirements after signing off on zoning relief for two new businesses in Westlake Plaza.
He said village zoning, requiring three parking spaces for every 1,000 square feet of leasable space, may not be “adequate in most situations.” He also said some suburban shopping centers require tenants to provide 10 or 15 parking spaces per 1,000 square feet. “I think that bringing some structure, bringing some modern analysis approach to the way we think about retail is very important,” Leonard added. “We have at least four major projects going in from a retail standpoint in Wilmette currently. Westlake Plaza obviously is getting up to 100% which is great news but it also challenges the parking adequacy issue.
