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.
