Savoy looks to guide growth through plan
SAVOY – A city planner hired by the village of Savoy to help update a comprehensive plan told the board and public about Savoy's progress since 2002, urging the public to give its input to help guide the future growth of the community.
Planner David Johnston talked about the rapid growth at a joint meeting of the village board and Zoning Board of Appeals on Wednesday, called to get public opinions on Savoy's future plans. Johnston said since November 2006, Savoy has seen developers approach, submit and receive approval for 566 acres of preliminary platted land for development, mostly slated to be used for residential purposes.
