Palatine TOD Plan
This project assisted the Village with creating a TOD Plan for the downtown area that will serves as an update to the Village 2004 Downtown Land Use Guide. This plan built upon already completed development and redevelopment in the downtown area in the 1990's and early 2000's. This Plan is a refined vision for remaining pocket areas that have potential for redevelopment and focuses on fringe areas where high-density, TOD development transitions back into more traditional, low-density land uses.
The final TOD Plan was adopted by the Village Board on November 14, 2016 and the Village is assessing initial implementation steps it could take. In September 2018, 'Stone Garden' Single Family Homes completed construction near the Palatine Metra Station.
In 2022 the Village was awarded right-of-way funding for Palatine Road improvements from Smith Street through Quentin Road identified in the plan. These improvements will include the reconstruction of Palatine Road, bike lane improvements, and associated sidewalk and pedestrian enhancements. These improvements will not only further solidify this section of Palatine Road as a western gateway into Downtown, but also greatly enhance the pedestrian and bicycle connectivity to Downtown Palatine.
