The village trustees of Skokie, Ill., have approved an amendment to the zoning code that now permits construction and demolition debris recycling centers to operate in the village, according to a report in the Skokie Review (Skokie, Ill.).
An applicant requested the zoning change to allow for a construction materials recycling center on a site that was within 500 feet of an arterial street and close to a high school, according to the report. Under the old zoning regulations, the facility could not be permitted at that location.
