Episode Details

A massive 182 single-family homes and 295 townhomes are proposed for 102 acres near Oswego East High School — a huge leap from current agricultural zoning. Dubbed Lodi Grove, the project aims to blend housing types to match the village’s medium-density vision, but the Planning and Zoning Commission is pushing back, demanding lower density, better traffic planning, and more green space. While the developer highlights past approvals and diverse housing options, commissioners remain skeptical about private streets and overall scale, urging a redesign that prioritizes community needs over density.
