Village of New Lenox Board Meeting | January 12, 2026

Article Summary: The Village Board approved the preliminary and final plat for the Cherry Hill Triangle, a three-lot subdivision designed for industrial use. The move paves the way for a local business expansion and future development.

Cherry Hill Triangle Key Points:

  • Zoning: The property is zoned I-1 Limited Industrial District.

  • Lot 1 Usage: Slated for a second facility for Automan, a business already located in the adjacent business park.

  • Future Growth: Lot 2 comprises a 30-acre site for future industrial development.

The New Lenox Village Board on Monday, January 12, 2026, approved the subdivision of the “Cherry Hill Triangle” property, facilitating the expansion of a local business.

The property, previously annexed and zoned for industrial use by Northern Builders, was subdivided into three lots. Village staff explained that Lot 1 is currently in the site plan approval process for a new facility for Automan.

“They are in for site plan approval for… a second facility for Automan. They are already in the business park,” a village staff member explained.

The subdivision also creates a 30-acre parcel (Lot 2) designated for future industrial development, which may be further subdivided later. The third lot is designated for a stormwater detention facility on the west end of the property. The Plan Commission had previously reviewed the plat and recommended approval.
