In 2004, the Village of Orland Park undertook an ambitious effort to develop an area that meets the Village’s long standing vision of creating a pedestrian-friendly downtown environment for Orland Park.
Having invested approximately $150 million within the Triangle in public/private partnerships, public investments, private investments, land acquisition, construction of public infrastructure and amenities, environmental remediation, and roadway intersection improvements, the project remains incomplete.
Seeking to finally bring home the Village’s long standing vision for this area, at the May 2, 2022 Village Board meeting, the Village Board approved the Conceptual Master Development Plan for Downtown Orland Park. After receiving two proposals for a master developer, the Village of Orland Park began to negotiate a Master Development Agreement with Edwards Realty to develop the remaining 9.15 acres of land in the Main Street Triangle at the Northwest corner of 143rd Street and LaGrange Road. This area, also known as Downtown Orland Park, is currently a TIF District.
Before a TIF district is created, the Redevelopment Plan must be available for public review at least 45 days prior to the public hearing. The public hearing offers the community an opportunity to raise questions and voice their concerns about the proposed redevelopment.
A registry of interested residents and organizations must also be created for each TIF, and a notice of important TIF activities shall be sent to those registered.
