SO MUCH IS HAPPENING IS BEAUTIFUL SUGAR GROVE
Located west of Orchard Road on the other side of Naperville and Aurora straight down I-88, is beautiful Sugar Grove located in Kane County. The community has experienced steady growth since 2000 and continues to attract young, ambitious families who are living the American dream. Sugar Grove is the perfect community for those who love the small town feel, yet want to be close to popular shopping, dining and area attractions.
Business is booming in the community, as builders, developers and smart marketers put new plans in motion. Recent years included the addition of Ace Hardware, Dunkin Donuts, Culvers, Starbuck's and more. According to the Village of Sugar Grove in a recent news release, plans for new Sugar Grove development are ramping up.
"Village Community Development staff are once again spending considerable time and effort on long term land use planning, working with developers who control sites within Sugar Grove’s village limits and planning area," said Bill Whitmer of the Sugar Grove Economical Development Corporation.
"Discussions about needed infrastructure, subdivision and site plan approvals and transportation / access requirements are being held with manufacturers, commercial and industrial developers for a new project. National Shopping Plazas, Inc. is developing concepts for a 40-acre commercial subdivision, which currently include hotels, retail and restaurant sites. Crown Community Development is planning for a development of mixed uses, north along Illinois Route 47. Industrial companies looking to expand have visited the Sugar Grove Community Development office and are considering available sites for development here. All of this activity is being spurred by the dwindling supply of development sites in communities farther east along the I-88 corridor; the expedition of the I-88/IL Route 47 full interchange project (completion expected in fall of 2019); and, Sugar Grove’s residential development community getting back on track. Not all the activity being done today is for long term planning however," Whitmer noted.
