The City of St. Charles has declined further review of the Charles Farm concept plan submitted by Pulte Home Company, LLC. The concept plan proposed annexing a large area of unincorporated property west of St. Charles for the development. Pulte representatives presented the concept plan at the Sept. 4, 2024, Plan Commission meeting to gather feedback from commissioners and the public.
After reviewing the initial concept plan and considering all the feedback received, Mayor Lora Vitek, with input from St. Charles Plan Commission and St. Charles City Council members, advised Pulte that there was no interest to continue further review of the plan. Therefore, the concept plan will not be discussed at any future public meetings.
“We are fortunate to have so many developers and businesses choose St. Charles as a place they want to be. I believe encouraging public discussion around ideas presented is healthy for our community and integral to maintaining an open process,” said Vitek. “We heard the feedback from residents and officials in nearby communities and their concerns and opinions were considered carefully. We have several ongoing developments and exciting opportunities in St. Charles we currently are focusing on. Dedicating the extensive amount of resources needed to make this project successful would have been challenging.”
Vitek thanked Pulte for presenting the proposal to the City, “It has been many years since development has been discussed near La Fox, and this has been a valuable process for the City and our neighbors to reengage and understand the community interest today.” The City is committed to working with all surrounding communities and government partners to be sure any future development of the property fits the character of Kane County.
