OBJECTIVES FOR MEETING
• Discuss Official City of McHenry Overall Future Five Phase McHenry Loop Map
• Discussing Future Land Use for City Of McHenry Downtown Loop
BACKGROUND
As was discussed a couple of meetings ago staff worked with HR Green in having a couple of
maps prepared depicting a "McHenry Pedestrian Loop." This is a Pedestrian Loop which
emanates from each of the City's three downtown areas out to the rest of the City, becomes
the basis for our future land use planning efforts and accomplishes many of the goals set forth
by the Commission.
The second map is a larger scale map which focuses on Phase I of the proposed McHenry Loop,
the Downtown Loop. The Loop is outlined in yellow and includes the proposed six Zagster
stations, the surrounding loop extensions, as well as the Prairie Path, Riverwalk and existing and
future bike paths.
GOALS FOR MEETING
The goals for the meeting are to focus on the parcels of land, specifically the vacant ones, ones
that most likely will be redeveloped, and ones that have not been redeveloped in their current
state or land use designation and place future land use designations on those parcels. Parcels
include:
• Parcel at the southwest corner of McCullom Lake Road and Riverside Drive
• Area behind Kohl's
• King Farm, north of McCullom Lake Road and south of Blake Boulevard
• Five Acre Parcel west of the detention and east of the King Farm
• Group of Parcels along McCullom Lake Road, north of Petersen Farm
• Historic areas along Main Street/Waukegan Road, zoned RA-1 and Historic Areas along
Riverside Drive (maintaining character, accommodating growth, meeting land use
needs)
• Carey Property on Waukegan Road
• South Wastewater Treatment Plant
• Miller Point Site

It's important to keep in mind the original sheet "A GRASSROOTS COMMUNITY -WIDE
PLANNING EFFORT. THE FUTURE OF COMMUNITY IS BEING PLANNED NOW! GET INVOLVED!
#MCHENRYMATTERS" and the four main headings/goals on that sheet and the objectives and
long-term challenges we will be facing as a community.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION PRIOR TO PUBLIC HEARING: It is the goal to gain acceptance of
the Commission of the general layout of the five phase McHenry Loop, agree on the general
future land use for the Downtown Loop and Adjacent Loop and move to the next couple phases
much quicker once everyone is comfortable with the general thought process.
